Service-based Grid infrastructures emphasize service composition
rather than sharing of low level resources. The idea is to
build Grid applications out of computational services provided by
the different sites of the Grid. Recent developments in the area of
Web services have strengthened this idea by standardizing procedures
like service description, publication and invocation. What is
still missing is the infrastructure necessary to support the complete
life cycle of applications running on service based Grids, i.e., suitable
programming paradigms, execution infrastructure, and the
ability to monitor and control such computations. Moreover, once
computations are made of composable services, dependability becomes
a key issue that needs to be addressed by the infrastructure
as it cannot be addressed separately by each individual service.
To address these concerns, we have developed the BioOpera Grid
computing platform. BioOpera is a process support system for
dependable cluster computing that has been extended with additional
functionality to provide adequate support for service-based
Grids. In this paper we describe how BioOpera can be used to
develop, execute, and administer highly dependable computations
over service-based Grids.
