Kepler Conference Call Notes 19 Aug 2004

Difference between version 25 and version 11:

Line 24 was replaced by line 24
- *** Bertram brought up that a design tool might also be nice (DBDesigner4)
+ *** Bertram brought up that a design tool might also be nice ([DBDesigner4|http://www.fabforce.net/dbdesigner4/screenshots.php])
Line 34 was replaced by lines 34-36
- ** Timeline for completion
+ *** who has these (IPCC?) and how do we get them into the EcoGrid with metadata?
+ *** Ricardo says that they are getting away from IPCC data -- we need to find out
+ **** Matt will contact Deana about environmental data
Lines 37-38 were replaced by lines 39-45
- ** Java API to sparrow status
- ** Design and implementation in Kepler status
+ ** Chad implemented search interface for the actors, pluggable to accomodate new ontology search interface
+ ** Chad will contact Shawn about further development on this, in particular
+ *** need mechanism for semantic registration for MoML
+ *** need access to sparrow API via Java
+ *** Chad still working on trimming the result tree to exclude all non-matched items and categories
+ **** Wants to implement the double-window view to compare effectiveness
+ ** Chad estimates that Oct 15 delivery date is possible (he's going on vacation for a week though)
At line 41 added 13 lines.
+ ** Matt: need ability to archive data products with their structural and provenance metadata
+ *** Bertram: do we have one systematic way to store metadata about execution (execution trace) that includes parameter settings, versions of services, etc.
+ **** Assumes notion of global ID's for services and data objects
+ ** Matt: also need ability to save workflows themselves in Grid environment, for sharing and collaboration
+ *** Then users can search and find components others create, including web services and other services that are Grid-available
+ ** Ilkay: 'Blue-box' recorder (parallel to director) that decides what needs to be recorded and archived
+ ** Bertram: maybe short-term is to get actor to write back to EcoGrid nodes and can be incorporated into workflow
+ *** Ilkay says the web service harvester may be incorporated by Oct 15 to allow finding remote services -- possibly with help from Bing and/or Efrat
+ *** Ilkay also says we should trim the tree for the release to only include stable stuff
+
+ 5. Kepler hackathon -- should we have another
+ ** Ilkay says it was useful. Would like another. But we had a hard time finding an available time. The week of Oct 11-15 might be possible, but it is right between 4 other weeks of meetings, and is probably too close to our intended Oct 15 release date. We also have the SEEK meeting as a possible planning meeting in the first week of November. Maybe we could ask more Kepler people to come to at least a portion of that?
+ ** Matt and Bertram will follow through on whether the SEEK meeting is the right place for the next Kepler planning meeting
