Aerospace integrated research systems

Abstract

Recently, people move their interest from developing single middleware to integration of those middleware and operations. One way to integrate Grid middleware and provide easy to use environment to application research scientists is using a portal. In this paper, we will discuss how to develop a wind tunnel simulation service that will be used by aerospace community by using this portal technology. Two main philosophies of such architecture are reusability and user-friendliness. Each part of our system can be re-used without any major difficulties. And since we have developed this system user in mind we try to make as easy as possible to use. Aerospace research scientists are actively involved from the beginning when we design overall architecture and design user interface of each step. © 2006 IEEE.
