Highlights
AssessGrid is software!
Methods and algorithms elaborated in the projects are put into action in software for Risk Management. The project released its first prototype in fall 2007. The second prototype was delivered during summer 2008.
As it is intended for reuse in other projects, the project also provides separately the Negotiation Manager for WS-Agreement protocol.
All the source code is released as Open Source under Apache V2 license.
Why AssessGrid?
The main objective of the E.C.-funded AssessGrid project is to address obstacles of a wide adoption of Grid computing by bringing risk management and assessment to this field, enabling use of Grid technologies in business and society.
In this scope, AssessGrid delivers generic, customisable, trustworthy, and interoperable open-source software for risk assessment, risk management, and decision-support in Grids.
