Abstract
Remote Instrumentation Services go far beyond offering networked access to remote instrument resources. They are establishing as a way of fully integrating instruments (including laboratory equipment, large-scale experimental facilities, and sensor networks) in a Service Oriented Architecture, where users can view and operate them in the same fashion with computing and storage resources. The deployment of test beds for a large basis of scientific instrumentation and e-Science applications is mandatory to develop new functionalities to be embedded in the existing middleware to enable such integration, to test them on the field, and to promote their usage in scientific communities. The DORII (Deployment of Remote Instrumentation Infrastructure) project is a major effort in this direction. The paper presents the performance monitoring infrastructure that has been built in DORII and the results concerning a selected application in seismic engineering.
