Abstract

This paper describes the current status of the CrossGrid Project architecture. The architecture is divided into six layers. The relations between main components are presented in UML notation. A flexible concept of plugins that enable creation of uniform user-friendly interface is shown. A brief discussion of OGSA technology and its possible application to CrossGrid services is given as an interesting area of future work.

This work was partly funded by the European Commission, project IST-2001-32243, CrossGrid [6]
