WSRF.NET

Stay tuned - a .NET 2.0/VS.NET 2005 version of WSRF.NET is coming soon!
WSRF.NET 2.1 is now available!
Welcome to theUniversity of VirginiaGrid Computing Group‘s WSRF.NET project pages. These pages provide information about the WSRF.NET project, the WSRF.NET software and project documentation. WSRF.NET is a platform for grid computing on .NET and a bridge to grid computing solutions on Unix machines. It is based on both theWeb Service Resource Framework andMicrosoft .NET technologies. WSRF.NET allows service authors to easily build WSRF-compliant web services by adding meta-data to their ASP.NET web service logic.
What is the Web Service Resource Framework?
In short, theWeb Service Resource Framework (WSRF) is a set of specifications designed to merge grid and web technologies by framing theconcepts of OGSI in terms of today‘s web service standards.
What is WSRF.NET?
WSRF.NET is a set of software libraries, tools and applications which implement the WSRF and WSN families of specifications on top of .NET. WSRF.NET allows easy authoring of WSRF-compliant services and clients and integrates many Microsoft technologies, such asWSE andADO.NET. WSRF.NET builds upon the success of ourOGSI.NET project.
