A Study of Wrapping Biologic Application to Grid Service

The past few years have witnessed an increasingly tight link between grid computing and Web services. But there is a large amount of biologic application which is not accessible as grid service in scientific computing domain. In this paper, by analyzing the character of computing job in grid, we describe the computing job as a set of abstract resource, and organize the grid resource as a resource view by request of computing job for resource in grid. We design a solution for wrapping the biologic application to service. This solution has been successfully applied to the development work of our project. Performance experiments show that the proposed wrap mechanisms bring about only slight efficiency loss
