[DRMAA-WG] Release of GridWay 5.3

[Ignacio Martin Llorente]

Thanks!, 

Yes, we implement the 1.0.1 binding and also maintain the support for the 0.6 binding. We have updated the documentation page at
http://www.gridway.org/doku.php?id=documentation:howto to give a clearer view of the bindings implemented by GridWay. We also
provide the DRMAA Java Testsuite and howto for the 1.0.1 binding and provide links to the spec documents. By the way, if I am not
wrong the 1.0.1 spec is not available at GridForge. 

Regards,

Ignacio

> >ENHANCEMENTS:
> >
> >Since GridWay 5.2, development activities have been focused on 
> >easing the integration of GridWay with major Grid infrastructures:
> >EGEE, TeraGrid and OSG. In this new development release, 
> >GridWay 5.3, support to access the NorduGrid infrastructure is also
> >included. Also, new bindings for DRMAA and support for DAGMAN 
> >workflows are included.
> >
> >- Integration with major Grid Infrastructures
> >Following the trend from previous releases, GridWay 5.3 is 
> >capable of integrate with another major infrastructure: NorduGrid.
> >Drivers for Execution and Transfer are included in this release.
> >
> >- New DRMAA bindings for scripting languages
> >Previous GridWay releases come with support for C and Java 
> >bindings implementing the DRMAA standard. Scripting languages are
> >interesting from the point of view of rapid application 
> >prototyping among others. From dsa-research.org we believe 
> >this to be an
> >interesting aspect, and that is why GridWay 5.3 includes 
> >bindings to access the DRMAA standard from scripting 
> languages such as
> >Perl, Ruby and Python.
> >
> >- Implementation of DRMAA Java Binding v1.0
> >GridWay now provides support for DRMAA Java Binding v1.0. 
> >DRAMAA Java bindings are also included to support legacy 
> applications.
> >
> >- Support for DAGMAN workflows
> >There is an increasing interest from the scientific community 
> >to be able to run complex workflows on a Grid environment. An almost
> >de-facto standard to represent DAG workflows is Condor DAGMAN. 
> >In this development release GridWay includes a new workflow launcher
> >(gwdag) that handles this kind of workflows.
