GAT: Towards Generic and Easy Application Programming Interfaces for the Grid
Published in Proceedings of the IEEE, Vol. 93, Issue 3, 2005
Presents the GridLab software architecture, consisting of GAT (Grid Application Toolkit), environment-specific adaptors, and GridLab services. Elaborates on the concepts underlying GAT and outlines the corresponding API. Presents the functionality of GridLab’s high-level services and demonstrates how a dynamic grid application can easily benefit from GAT.
