Abstract :
Design templates that involve discovery, analysis, and integration of information resources commonly occur in many scientific research projects. In this paper we present examples of design templates from the biomedical translational research domain and discuss the requirements imposed on Grid middleware infrastructures by them. Using caGrid, which is a Grid middleware system based on the model driven architecture (MDA) and the service oriented architecture (SOA) paradigms, as a starting point, we discuss architecture directions for MDA and SOA based systems like caGrid to support common design templates.
