Status Report for 12/13/06 to 12/20/06

Basically CEMon is used to provide/get information for helping resource selection. The service consists of two parts: a CEMon server and a client. While the CEMon server produces information and publishes to its subscribers, the CEMon client consumes the events. CEMon is based on a web service providing WSDL and SOAP message is needed for subscription.

To implement CEMon as a web client using OGCE, I need to do the followings:

1. Install CEMon command line tools and try to use them to know how CEMon service is working
2. Analyze CEMon’s WSDL to find commands between CEMon server and clients
3. Implement CEMon web client by using Java

Now I’m ready to submit a job to OSG since I got a valid certificate and registered a member of OSG VO. For the next week, I will complete step 1.
