Abstract

The g-Eclipse framework provides a general, integrated workbench toolset for grid users, operators and developers. Based on the open source eclipse ecosystem, g-Eclipse supports scientists to interact with grid resources independent of the underlying grid middleware. Its main objective is to deliver an extensible framework for different grid actors, by providing a unified abstraction of the grid. The grid abstraction enables grid application users to access the grid in a desktop-like manner with wizards specific for common use cases; it also provides a set of visual configuration tools to maintain and configure grid resources.
