Management Groups:
Application Contents Service (ACS-WG)
The Application Contents Service (ACS) provides central management of diverse sets of application information bundled into a single unit.
Configuration Description, Deployment, and Lifecycle Management (CDDLM-WG)
The CDDLM-WG will address how to: describe configuration of services; deploy them on the Grid; and manage their deployment lifecycle (instantiate, initiate, start, stop, restart, etc.).
Grid Economic Services Architecture (GESA-WG)
The purpose of this working group is to define the protocols and service interfaces needed to extensibility support a variety of economic models for the charging of Grid Services in the OGSA.
OGSA Resource Usage Service (RUS-WG)
To define a Resource Usage Service (RUS) for deployment within an OGSA hosting environment that will track resource usage (accounting in the traditional UNIX sense) and will not concern itself with payment for the use of the resource.
Usage Record (UR-WG)
In order for resources to be shared, sites must be able to exchange basic accounting and usage data in a common format. This working group proposes to define a common usage record based on those in current practice.
