Logistics

Topics

• Review usability assesments prepared by Laura Downey
• Review the usability materials in CVS usability report, Kepler usability issues, design of Kepler menus
• Generation of documentation and doclets
• Design/implementation of uniform access to data in Kepler
• Single GUI/actor approach for EcoGrid/JDBC/GridFTP/Geon Data/etc.
• Design unified grid-computing approach
• Identify 'parallelizable' Kepler actors (e.g., map actor)
• Unify approach to integrating condor/nimrod/etc. in Kepler
• Approach for making individual Kepler instances part of 'MyKeplerGrid'
• In particular, launch Kepler and allow other Kepler users to run jobs on your machine
• Design portable Kepler actor archive and repository
• Jar files that contain everything needed for an actor or workflow
• Can load these jar files at runtime
• Please review the Kepler Object Manager description on the Kepler web site
• Identify and fix existing anomolous bugs (scrollbar resizing, search lock ups, etc.)
• Quality control fixes on existing code (polishing)
• Create timeline for stabilization and Kepler beta and 1.0.0 releases

Also of interest but probably postponed because Shawn and Bertram can't make it:

• Design/implementation of semantic integration tools
• Semantic compatibility checker, constrain search, integrate actors/data
• End up with a phased implementation plan and clear roadmap for the developers to follow
