Project 1
This project is the first step in a series of projects that will result
in a full implementation of an e-science portal.
Requirements for part 1
- Install the portal. Note: you will need to use jdk1.4 for now.
When we find a fix for the bug we will ask you to rebuild it with jdk1.5.
Follow the instructions given in class for the portal installation.
- Each team member should obtain an x.509 grid identity certificate. Load
that certificate into the MyProxy service as described in the documents
on the on-cource site. (to make your life easy store it permanently as
described in the document.)
- verify that each team member can log into the portal and fetch the
grid proxy certificate. To see that it works correctly you should be able
to use the portal to execute a remote "who" command on silo.cs.indiana.edu
Note: normaly the portal server should fetch your credential automatically when you
log into the portal. however, that require jdk1.5. with jdk1.4 you have
to use the security portlets to fetch it yourself.
- Install at least one public domain portlet. see the class notes on the
on-course site.
- Make some attempt to customize the look and feel of the portal.
Due Date: sunday. 9-24
In the week 9/25 to 9/29 make an appointment with Yi Huang. You will show
him a demonstration of your portal. Gannon will see it the following week.
