Abstract

Nowadays there is an increasing need to facilitate the knowledge and research tool sharing and realize effective high-level collaboration among members of the same Virtual Organization. E-Science Gateways are the primary solutions dedicated to support such needs. With E-Science Gateways researchers can use grid infrastructure to run shared, well-tested applications customized to their own research field. In this paper the development lifecycle of an e-Science Gateway is described, role definitions of a generic gridification process is provided and the general steps of the application porting process are also identified. In the second part of the paper a developed external module of P-Grade Grid Portal called Application Specific Module is introduced, which extends the portal’s functionality set. This Application Specific Module allows developers to convert a generic P-GRADE grid portal into a domain specific e-Science Gateway. At the end of the paper two case studies are detailed, to show the development and usage possibilities of the Application Specific Module.
