The demonstration is currently offline while we rearrange our servers and will reappear soon. An earlier demonstration can be found here.

| January 2008 | Web 2.0 Interface Screenshots |
This is a demonstration of our first attempts at creating a Web 2.0 interface that presents data using dynamic charts, sliders and graphs. The demo is restricted to anonymous user access and as such is restricted to our test gateway. This work is described in the following paper: Garry Smith, Mark Baker and Javier Diaz Montes, A Web 2.0 User Interface for Wide-area Resource Monitoring, Mardi Gras Conference 2008, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, 31 January - 2 February 2008. Powerpoint slides from the conference presentation are available here |

GridRM Demonstration #2
Mirrors: Kasetsart Univ., Thailand Screen shots |
A demo of the GridRM software that users interact with through their web browser.
The user interface contains a number of screens to locate GridRM Gateways,
to select groups of resources across a set of remote gateways and to query
resources. SQL and Naming Schemas hide the underlying resource heterogeneity from the user.
The demonstration uses the current generation of GridRM gateway. Technologies used in the GridRM gateway Local Layer include SQL/JDBC, XML Java, Servlets, mySQL. The technologies used for the user interface include Java Servlets, XHTML, XML, XSLT, CSS, JavaScript and cookies (very occasionaly). This demonstration is currently evolving with functionality being added on a regular basis. |

GridRM Demonstration #1
Screen shots: Login, Datasource Tree |
This demonstration focused on interacting with local layer datasources. In particular a tree
model was used to allow the user to view the availablity of and to poll data sources for information.
Dynamic and static datasource driver selection mechanisms were also introduced here. Naming schema
and result normalisation techniques were minimal, so underlying resource heterogeneity could be
observed in the data returned to the user.
Technologies used included: SQL/JDBC: for querying datasources, XML: results to client interface, Java, Servlets, mySQL. The technologies used for the user interface include Java Servlets, XSLT: rendering the client interface from the XML results. |

R-GMA Grid Resource Monitor Prototype | This Grid Resource Monitor prototype utilises the Relational Grid Monitoring
Architecture (R-GMA) from the European Data Grid. This prototype was written
by undergraduate student Aimee Sermon for her final year project with
the Distributed Systems Group. |

GridMonitor Prototype 1 Poster pdf. |
This initial prototype connects to Globus Monitoring and Discovery Servers (MDS) to provide a view of Grid resources
registered through the Globus toolkit. The prototype utilises servlet, applet,
relational database and Globus MDS and CoG Kit technologies. The GridRM project
was concieved from our experience with this prototype. Work on Prototype 1
was partly funded by the CLRC Daresbury Laboratory,
Grid Support Centre.
