Abstract
WS-PGRADE/gUSE is a gateway framework that offers a set of high-level grid and cloud services by which interoperation between grids, clouds, and scientific user communities can be achieved. gUSE is also a workflow system that enables scientific communities to compose and execute a series of computational or data manipulation steps in a scientific application on Distributed Computing Infrastructures (DCIs). The current chapter summarizes the most important features of WS-PGRADE/gUSE.
