Evaluation of Shibboleth and PKI for Grids project, (ESP-GRID), based at the University of Oxford.
Wiki managed by Mark Norman and Alun Edwards, July 2005-
Welcome to the ESP-GRID wiki!
Here you will find most of the output from our project. Firstly you may wish to have a look at our [http://users.ox.ac.uk/~markn/ESPGRID/ESPMainProjPlan1_0.pdf original project plan]. We've varied from it only a little, so the main aims have been addressed.
Our first main deliverable was to investigate the requirements for access management for grids in general. This proved more difficult than anticipated, but we now have a host of resources, if you're thinking of looking into this area yourself:
See our main GridRequirements page for the main findings and a list of useful bibliographic resources on this subject
The final list of requirements for a generic grid are listed on the RequirementsDoc page
To inform this work a lot of reading and summarising have been done regarding use cases for grids: see our UseCases page for plenty of detail and other references
The next work of the project was to evaluate how relevant are Shibboleth and (separately) client-based PKI to these general requirements. Some further work on the PKI part is anticipated from Matthew Dovey, but a comparison document was prepared mostly addressing the use of Shibboleth, but also looking at the shortcomings of client based PKI. This document is named ShibEvaluation (but also addresses PKI).
