| Abstract |
|
Grid and service computing technologies have been
explored by enterprises to promote integration,
sharing, and collaboration. However, quick response
to business environment changes is still a challenging
issue. For end users, developing, customizing, and reengineering
applications remain a difficult and timeconsuming
task. Users still need to deal with excessive
low-level details of platform-specific APIs. We present
a high-level programming model together with a
descriptive glueing language called GSML, to
facilitate end-user programming. In this approach,
applications could be visually composed from welldefined
software components called "funnels" in an
event-driven fashion. Application examples have
shown that, by raising the level of abstraction as well
as simplifying the programming model, GSML could
empower end users to build grid applications on
demand with improved productivity.
