dc.description.abstract | Integration of emerging technologies and design patterns into the
three-tier client-server architecture is required in order to provide
a scalable and flexible architecture for novice to sophisticated
portal user groups. The ability to provide user customizable portal
interfaces is rapidly becoming commonplace and is driving the
expectations of researchers and scientists in the scientific
community. This paper describes an architectural design that
maximizes information technology service reuse while providing
a customizable user interface that scales with user sophistication
and requirements. The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) located
at Oak Ridge National Laboratory provides a state-of-the-art
facility ideal for implementation of this infrastructure. The SNS
Java-based Science Portal (Tier I) and Open Grid Computing
Environment (Tier II) provide thin-client support whereas the
GumTree Eclipse Rich Client Platform (Tier III) and Eclipse
Integrated Development Environment (Tier IV) provide thickclient
support within a multitier portal architecture. Each tier
incorporates all of the features of the previous tiers while adding
new capabilities based on the user requirements. | |
