Many data grid applications manage and process huge datasets distributed across multiple grid nodes and stored into heterogeneous databases; e-Science projects need to access widespread databases within a computational grid environment, through a set of secure, interoperable and efficient data grid services. In the data grid management area several projects aims at addressing these issues providing different solutions and proposing a set of data access and integration/federation services. In this paper we present the GRelC Data Access, a WS-I based data grid access service developed by SPACI Consortium and the University of Salento. Its architectural design is discussed and experimental results related to an European testbed are also reported.

Abstract
Many data grid applications manage and process huge datasets distributed across multiple grid nodes and stored into heterogeneous databases; e-Science projects need to access widespread databases within a computational grid environment, through a set of secure, interoperable and efficient data grid services. In the data grid management area several projects aims at addressing these issues providing different solutions and proposing a set of data access and integration/federation services. In this paper we present the GRelC Data Access, a WS-I based data grid access service developed by SPACI Consortium and the University of Salento. Its architectural design is discussed and experimental results related to an European testbed are also reported.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
