Abstract :
Recent advances in Internet and Grid technologies have greatly enhanced processes in scientific experiments; not only computing and data intensive tasks become feasible, but also large scale collaborations between resources and users are now possible. Scientific workflows encode intelligence of successful experiments and become important resources. Sharing these resources and allowing scientists to cooperate in one experiment are essential to promote the knowledge transfer among scientists and to accelerate the scientific achievements. In this demo, we present a solution developed in the Dutch Virtual Laboratory for e-Science project for supporting cooperative experiments.
