Title: Open Grid Services Architecture Glossary of Terms Version 1.6

Author/editor: J. Tredwell

Abstract: The Open Grid Services Architecture (OGSA) document
summarizes current understanding of the functionality required to
implement a Grid infrastructure, and the rendering of this
functionality into service definitions.  In doing so, it uses many
terms whose meanings may need clarification.  Some of these terms are
introduced and explained in the OGSA architecture document, while
others are defined in other related documents.

The purpose of this Glossary is to provide an unambiguous definition
of such terms as they are used in the context of an OGSA Grid.  It is
intended to be read in conjunction with the OGSA architecture
document, and does not by itself provide background information about
Grids, nor attempt to justify the definitions or the context in which
they may be used.  The reader is referred to external documents for
further explanation where necessary.
