10 Tony Linde14-15 Dec 2004AstroGrid Consortium Meeting: Project Framework Portal and Workflow Supports workflow paradigm (from the simple to the complex) Queries and workflows are designed using the portal Work is run remotely and asynchronously Archives searched and results manipulated Results are stored in a virtual file system Queries and workflows can be re-used and shared

11 Tony Linde14-15 Dec 2004AstroGrid Consortium Meeting: Project Framework Enabling Resource Discovery Types of Registries:– Full, Publish, Special Registry is the main focal point for all Astrogrid components Agreed Standards with IVOA Search and harvest interface OAI standard for harvest interface Adheres to the Astrogrid CEA standard Types of resource Generic services, web services, applications, … Data collections AstroGrid-specific resources (e.g. MySpace servers) Use of XQuery language with eXist XML database. Harvesting US NVO VizieR

12 Tony Linde14-15 Dec 2004AstroGrid Consortium Meeting: Project Framework Access Control AstroGrid has taken the lead in AAA because our system is based on writable storage Implement single-sign-on (SSO) authentication Using a community service (so, account can be used with a number of portals or other UIs) Programme-to-programme authentication based on message security with SOAP headers and WS-Security Facade API to hide details from implementations Underneath, use JAX-RPC/Axis handlers to secure messages. Little authorization support in 2004, more in 2005 groups, quotas, community authorization, file sharing Currently specific to AstroGrid Working with IVOA to design and adopt a common standard

14 Tony Linde14-15 Dec 2004AstroGrid Consortium Meeting: Project Framework Publisher's AstroGrid Library Task: What's involved in publishing data to the VO? Library of components Make a data owners life a (relatively) straight-forward transition to a data owner/publisher Variety of plugins Cope with different collections of data (modes of storage) To make life easier for installers and test how they might be presented to the VO Ready-made web UI Suitable for astronomers to use, Includes useful configuration & monitoring features VO-compatible interfaces for tools to access the data Features to communicate with other VO services E.g. Registries
