Overview of GGF 9

• GGF documents are under reviews
• 18 documents are published
• GridForge is being used
• http//forge.gridforum.org
• NOMCOMs are activated
• Nominations committee

OGSA Update

• OGSA almost reach the conclusion
• Now reflecting requirements
• from other WGs (Will hold cross-WG sessions)
• From non-WGs
• Using use cases
• Suggest Platform service

Grid Ubiquitous

• Considered as a possible area
• APPAGG group is related to Ubi.
• http//forge.gridforum.org/projects/appagg-rg
• Must be a subset of Ubicomp group
• No technical discussion
• We will follow up this group
• See details in the technical report from the chair

11
P2P workshop

• Capabilities of P2P systems
• Large scale, self-organizing, data distribution.
• Are OGSA suitable for P2P app.?
• Not concluded????
• See details in http//www-csag.ucsd.edu/P2P-Grid/
  (or cybercs)

12
Design and Building Grid Services

• Introduce various developed services in many
  areas
• See details in http//www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/7Ekeah
  ey/DBGS/dbgs.html

Conclusion

• We should monitor GGF documents
• Lets get into the GGFs
• Possible Groups
• UPDT (User Programming Development Toolkit)
• UBICOMP (Grid Supports Ubiquitous computing)
• Problems
• Linguistic barrier
• Technical barrier
