Hints

Boundary of the Surface Hints, (Xi, Yi), obtained by “previous research teams” - may not be completely trustworthy! Hints tell you which technology to use and the form of the data

(calculated on the fly or stored as files and accessed via metadata)

Hints are found using OGSA-DAI

Hints look like this (in relational form):

Real search space characteristics In real life

Noise is much larger and pervasive (ie. Top of pillars) Ratio of signal to noise is usually larger

Search spaces generally larger Don’t normally know the complete parameters of your search

space E.G. Boundaries & alignment

So, here, we do not need statistics to analyse the patterns

Do not need to run complex models You are being given the searching tool (may often be the

case in real life)

Framework

Expected to Write program(s) / script(s)

To run explorations across Surface, E.G. interfacing tools for displaying result with

technologies that deliver those results to find

Pillars, then plaques

Do visualisation on Plaques to read Wisdom Words

Recognise the pattern Making full use of capabilities

Scanner tool Use the Scanner tool to search for a pillar in a given area From the command line, java -jar sfkscan-XXX.jar <x1> <y1> <x2> <y2> <step_size> (XXX = technology name: glite globus condor unicore gridsam)

X1y1 = bottom left, x2y2 = top right If a pillar is found in the given area, the word on the

plaque will be printed on the screen. It can be saved in a text file to view better if the word

wraps on the screen. This can be done through redirecting the output to a file.

Parameters Area = -10,000 to 10,000 Step size range = 0.0001 -> 0.1 Each technology has sample pillar that

you will be given.

Semantic Grid Integrating Practical Objectives

Use the lessons learned in the Semantic Grid Practical Query the metadata stored in a Globus container

Procedure After you find all the words hidden in the pillars… Connect to issgc-client-01.polytech.unice.fr Use the query-all-notes command in the Globus installation Instructions:

http://www.dia.fi.upm.es/~ocorcho/ISSGC2009/web/index_integrating.html

Results The results are the name of the elements you were querying to

the Metadata Query Service: 8 words Combining these words with the previous ones from the pillars

you get the final solution http://www.dia.fi.upm.es/~ocorcho/ISSGC2009/

Reporting colums

Browse to http://dc06.nesc.ed.ac.uk:8080/sfk/ To enter discovered pillars: 

Group - this is your group number, (do not add for other groups!) 

Text - the whole text you found on the pillar (need to find all of it) 

x1, y1, x2, y2 - specify a bounding box that includes all of that text
