Virtual rock laboratory - A grid portal enabling computational geoscience research
Cihan Altinay, Dion Weatherley · 2009
Virtual Rock Lab (VRL) is a secure web portal designed to enable users without programming skills to construct and execute ESyS-Particle simulations. The portal covers all steps of the work flow combining interfaces that allow users to create and edit input scripts through dialogues, submit jobs to a supercomputer connected to the AuScope Grid and browse a simulation journal to access past simulations and monitor active ones. Thus, authorised users need nothing more than a computer with a web browser to use the system and require no programming skills.
