A grid portal: why and how

• It can be accessed from everywhere and by “everything” (desktop, laptop, PDA, cell phone).

• It can keep the same user interface to several back-ends.

• It must be redundantly “secure” at all levels: – 1) secure for web transactions, – 2) secure for user credentials, – 3) secure for user authentication, – 4) secure at VO/VOMS level.

• All available grid services must be incorporated in a logic way, just “one mouse click away”.

• Its layout must be easily understandable and user friendly.


• A Grid Portal improves usability of Grids– Lowering end-user requirements for accessing

the Grid– Hiding the complexity of data and job

services management in the Grid

• A Grid Portal improves utilization of Grids– Making the Grid (r)evolution transparent to the

end-user– Providing an appealing user-friendly Web

interface – Enforcing Grid utilization policies

What EnginFrame is ?

7

• It’s a web based technology able to expose grid services to the GRID Infrastructure

• It allows organizations to provide application-oriented computing and data services

• It’s a GRID Gateway

• It semplify the development of web portals exposing services that can run over broad range of different Grid Infrastructures

• GENIUS is a powerful Grid Portal that allows scientists to exploit Grid resources only using a conventional Web browser

• It has been built on top of the EnginFrame framework

• It’s a gateway to European EGEE Project middle-ware

• It allows to expose gLite-enabled applications via Web-browser as well as Web Services

A Text Code is required to start the VOMS Proxy Applet for the proxy initialization

The Java plugin 1.6.0 or higher is mandatory required.

• All web transactions are executed under the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) via HTTPS

• The user must have an account on the User Interface

• When the user wants to interact with the file-system of the UI, he gets prompted for the username and password of the account on that machine

• All the glite functionalities are integrated in the portal and accessible only after the creation of the voms-proxy through the applet

Robot certificates

1. Starting from Feb. 2008 also the Italian INFN CA will start to issue Robot Certificates. Thanks to these new certificates biologists will be able to access the grid sharing the certificate installed on the portal.

2. UK and NL CA are already issuing robot certificates

3. The decision of the INFN CA is a great success of the BioinfoGRID project


Your identity: /C=IT/O=GILDA/OU=Robots/L=INFN Catania/CN=Robot:MrBayes - Giuseppe La Rocca

Contacting voms.ct.infn.it:15001 [/C=IT/O=INFN/OU=Host/L=Catania/CN=voms.ct.infn.it] "gilda" Done

Creating proxy ............................................................................... Done

Your proxy is valid until Thu May 8 21:42:05 2008

Robot certificates


• In order to strong reduce the risks of having the portal certificate compromised and improve the security, the INFN CA has decided to issue this new certificate on board of the Aladdin eToken PRO smart card. – http://www.aladdin.com/etoken/

• Each smart card can support several robot certificates: one for each application user wants to share with the other. – An user’s PIN is prompted every time user try to read

the certificate on board of the smart card to generate a proxy.

The CODESA-3D application

• CODESA-3D (COupled variable DEnsity and Saturation 3-Dimensional) is a software developed at CRS4 (Center for Advanced Studies, Research and Development in Sardinia - http://www.crs4.it/).

• Its aims to study, taking into account detailed mathematical representations of physical, chemical and biological processes that govern water flow, saltwater intrusion in freshwater coastal aquifers.

What is BLAST ?

BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) is an algorithm used to compare biological sequences, such as the amino-acid of different proteins or the nucleotides of DNA sequences.

The program requires a query sequence (also called target sequence) and a database.

Its identifies all the sub-sequences of the target query that are similar to the sub-sequences in the database.

The Mediterranean Region at the end of the urban revolution

ArchaeoGrid aims to investigate the paleoclimate situation in the Mediterranean Area between XVIII centuries B.C.This kind of studies are made available, within EUMEDGRID, using a metereological modelling software called MM5. It allows to create complex atmospheric simulations and simulate weather evolution.


The result

The MM5 program, thanks to the description of the environment, elaborates the meteorological data and generate the forecast

GENIUS offers the following advantages:• it is a complete production-ready environment which combines the

concepts of “user portal” and “science portal”;• absolutely no client software needs to be installed on the user’s

workstation apart from the web browser with its usual plug-ins like Java (at least JRE 1.6.0 or higher);

• it provides a new unique tool to authorize users, in a very strong secure way, into the grid environment with or without VOMS support as well, easy to use;

• it includes support for both single and composite jobs (including DAG’s);

• interactive analysis and web access to personal spooling areas are possible;
