OMII-UK: Mission Promote the use of open-source software
solutions to enable e-Science by providing: Software Support Sustainability
Through this activity reduce the ‘risk’ of building upon software from other projects
Focus on the distinct needs of the user – be they researcher, developer or service provider

Current 3.1 Release FINS: Implementation of the WS-Eventing
specification. FIRMS: Implementation of the WS-ReliableMessaging
and WS-Reliability specifcations. WSRF::Lite: A perl implementation of the WS-RF
specifications (only tested on a few platforms in this release).
PlotWS: A web service wrapper around the Gnuplot program – send in data get back an image of the graph.

Future Releases Taverna:
Graphical workflow composition tool able to integrate different web, data and web service sources.
BPEL: Packaging & contribution to the open-source Oracle/IBM
BPEL workflow editor and ActiveBPEL execution engine.
AHE: Application Hosting Environment a lightweight hosting
environment for running unmodified scientific applications across different grid infrastructures.

Product Lines Life Sciences:
Taverna workbench for integrated access to community hosted web and data services to support life sciences and bioinformatics.
Compute Developers: Scheduling and execution of applications across different computational
resources using GridSAM, Grimoires, and scheduling/matchmaking services. Data Developers:
Software to federate data sources with different data schemas and different access policies based around OGSA-DAI.
Service Developers: Secure web services hosting environment with infrastructure to support
events (notification) and reliable messaging based around FINS, FIRMS, Tomcat and Axis.
Educators: Basic secure web services environment with comprehensive tutorials and
examples to learn how to use web services using Tomcat and Axis.
