| Abstract |
|
We introduce the Symphony framework, a software
abstraction layer that can sit on top of grid systems.
Symphony provides a unified API for grid application
developers and offers a graphical user interface for rapid
collaborative development and deployment of grid
applications and problem solving environments through
compositional modeling following the data-flow
paradigm. Symphony meta-programs and program
components can be distributed, reused and modified.
Together with Symphony a new security model is
developed that extends existing security architectures to
allow for collaboration of grid developers and users in
permanent as well as ad-hoc working groups.
