Status Report for 01/18/07 to 01/24/07

During the last week, I mainly focused on the following tasks:
1. Implementation of Time Series Analysis as a web service -- Most implementation is working now. I’m making the implementation to work as a web service.

• To execute analyze_tseri_linux, we need to create a few input files. Among them, a parameter file needs more attention on creation. No blank line is allowed for separating sites. In the previous implementation, new line was added automatically, which caused error.
• To server as a web service, type of inputs should be carefully considered. If a complex data type is used such as object, the data type should be serializable or mashalable.

2. Preparing to submit a paper to TeraGrid 07 about Big Red portal.

• The paper will contain the experience of Big Red portal and portlet implementation for SC 06.
• Grid Tag Library and Grid Beans made by Mehmet Nacar will be discussed too.

Status Report for 01/11/07 to 01/17/07

I’m working on QuakeSim2 project by implementing a web service for Time Series Analysis. Currently deployed Time Series Analysis service needs to be improved for providing better user interfaces. For this purpose some functionality in the old implementation should be moved into a new service implementation. The following works should be done:

1. Implementing a stand-alone Time Series Analysis application. The new application will generate drive files for given user input and execute analyze_tseri_linux utility. (will be finished at the end of this week)
2. Converting the application into a web service application.

After finishing this implementation, I will help out to develop another module in QuakeSim2 project and start with Polar Grid project.
