The g-Eclipse project aims to build an integrated workbench framework to access the power of existing Grid infrastructures. The framework will be built on top of the reliable eco-system of the Eclipse community to enable a sustainable development. The framework will provide tools to customize Grid users' applications, to manage Grid resources and to support the development life-cycle of new Grid applications. Already existing tools (such as the Migrating Desktop, the GridBench suite, the Grid Visualisation Kernel (GVK), ...) will be integrated.
The project will aim for general Grid workbench tools that can be extended for many different Grid middlewares (such as gLite, UNICORE, Globus Toolkit, etc.), starting with implementations for the gLite middleware. The project will use existing Grid infrastructures from projects like int.eu.grid or EGEE.
Following a successful creation review, g-Eclipse is now an official Eclipse Technology Project. Visit the project's homepage.
The g-Eclipse consortium consists of six partners from five different European countries, who are experts in Grid and Eclipse technology.
