We discuss a web-based portal for the exploration, encapsulation, and dissemination of visualization results over the Grid. This portal integrates three components: an interface client for structured visualization exploration, a visualization web application to manage the generation and capture of the visualization results, and a centralized portal application server to access and manage grid r...

Data Warehousing tools have become very popular and currently many of them have moved to Web-based user interfaces to make it easier to access and use the tools. The next step is to enable these tools to be used within a portal framework. The portal framework consists of pages having several small windows that contain individual data warehouse query results. There are several issues that need t...

The interoperability of SOAP has eased the provision of B2B (business to business) solutions where web applications (web form submission via browser) are only suitable for supporting B2C (business to client). As many services exist that are delivered to clients via web applications, enabling the delivery of such services via SOAP to provide B2B solutions is desirable. One mechanism for achievin...
