  • triana applications within grid computing and peer to peer environments
    Journal of Grid Computing, 2003
    Co-Authors: Ia Taylo, Matthew Shields, Ian Nicholas Wang, Ome F Rana
    Abstract:

    An overview of the Triana Problem Solving Environment is provided – with a particular focus on the GAP application-level interface, for integration with Grid Computing and Peer-to-Peer infrastructure. GAP is a Java-based subset of the Grid Application Toolkit interface (being implemented in the GridLab project), and an outline of its Current Functionality, usage and mappings to three supported underlying middleware derivatives: JXTA, Web Services, and P2PS (a simplified Peer-to-Peer platform) are provided. The motivation behind the development of P2PS is given – emphasising its minimal, but effective Peer-to-Peer mechanisms that allow scalable, decentralized discovery and communication amongst cooperating P2PS peers within highly unstable environments. A summary of three application use cases illustrating the range of scenarios that such a system addresses is also provided.

  • the dspace institutional digital repository system Current Functionality
    ACM IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries, 2003
    Co-Authors: Robert Tansley, Mick Bass, David Stuve, Margret Branschofsky, Daniel Chudnov, Greg Mcclellan, Mackenzie Smith
    Abstract:

    We describe DSpace/sup /spl trade//, an open source system that acts as a repository for digital research and educational material produced by an organization or institution. DSpace was developed during two years' collaboration between the Hewlett-Packard Company and MIT Libraries. The development team worked closely with MIT Libraries staff and early adopter faculty members to produce a 'breadth-first' system, providing all of the basic features required by a digital repository service. As well as functioning as a live service, DSpace is intended as a base for extending repository Functionality, particularly to address long-term preservation concerns. We describe the Functionality of the Current DSpace system, and briefly describe its technical architecture. We conclude with some remarks about the future development and operation of the DSpace system.

  • chaste a test driven approach to software development for biological modelling
    Computer Physics Communications, 2009
    Co-Authors: Joe Pittfrancis, Pras Pathmanathan, Miguel O Bernabeu, Rafel Bordas, Jonathan Cooper, Alexander G Fletcher, Gary R Mirams, Philip J Murray, James M Osborne, Alex Walter
    Abstract:

    Chaste (‘Cancer, heart and soft-tissue environment’) is a software library and a set of test suites for computational simulations in the domain of biology. Current Functionality has arisen from modelling in the fields of cancer, cardiac physiology and soft-tissue mechanics. It is released under the LGPL 2.1 licence. Chaste has been developed using agile programming methods. The project began in 2005 when it was reasoned that the modelling of a variety of physiological phenomena required both a generic mathematical modelling framework, and a generic computational/simulation framework. The Chaste project evolved from the Integrative Biology (IB) e-Science Project, an inter-institutional project aimed at developing a suitable IT infrastructure to support physiome-level computational modelling, with a primary focus on cardiac and cancer modelling.
