Project DescriptionClient: NCI The initial performance period is approximately 12 months and is divided into three phases: Elaboration, Construction, and Transition. We were part of the development team that was led by Ohio State University. Argonne National Labs was also part of the development team. As a part of this contract, we developed several key components of caGrid. Some of them include caGrid Installer, caGrid Authz, caGrid Browser and caGrid Portal. We also developed caBIO and caArray data grid services and deployed them on NCI grid node. In April 2007, we were awarded a 9-month contract extension to primarily work on enhancements to several caGrid components. As a part of this extension, we developed and released caGrid Portal 2.0.
