Abstract

VLAM-G, the Grid-based Virtual Laboratory AMsterdam, provides a science portal for distributed analysis in applied scientific research. It offers scientists the possibility to carry out their experiments in a familiar environment that provides seamless access to geographically distributed resources and devices. In this paper, the general design of the VLAM-G platform is introduced. Furthermore, the application of the VLAM-G and its extension with Virtual Organization concepts for specific scientific domains is presented, with focus on bio-sciences.
