Web-based access to the Grid using the Grid Resource Broker portal. (English) Zbl 1007.68629

Summary: This paper describes the Grid Resource Broker (GRB) portal, a Web gateway to computational Grids in use at the University of Lecce. The portal allows trusted users seamless access to computational resources and Grid services, providing a friendly computing environment that takes advantage of the underlying Globus Toolkit middleware, enhancing its basic services and capabilities.
