WS-ResourceFramework on .NET

The WSRF specifications [Foster, I. et al., (2004)] represent the merging of "the Web " and "the grid". This poster describes a design to achieve compliance with the WS-ResourceFramework specifications using Microsoft .NET technologies. Our design seeks to leverage Microsoft tools wherever possible and to make WSRF compliant services easy to program. While our work on OGSI.NET [Wasson, G. et al., (2004)] provides invaluable insight that guides the design of WSRF.NET, we feel that a different set of abstractions are necessary to capture the full potential of the WS-ResourceFramework. This poster describes our work to date on WSRF.NET The poster discusses topics such as the implementation of WS-Resources, the WSRF.NET programming model, our security architecture and our future release plans (including our first release at HPDC 13).
