Abstract

This paper introduces the way of separating the PROVE trace visualisation tool from the P-GRADE environment into a stand-alone Grid service. The separation resulted three PROVE implementations: a local service, a servlet based solution and an OGSA (Open Grid Services Architecture) enabled GT3 (Globus Toolkit) Grid service. The paper describes the problems and decisions during the development process of the different versions. Based on our experiences one can see how a local program can be relocated into the Grid as one of the several services the global infrastructure will one day offer.

The work presented in this paper was supported by the Ministry of Education under No. IKTA5-089/2002, the Hungarian Scientific Research Fund No. T042459 and IHM 4671/1/2003.
