Web服务有可能从根本上提高研究人员利用分布式计算资源的能力，但是行话和过多的标准使得没有必要技术经验的科学家几乎不可能使用它们。提出了一种功能强大且简单的基于WSRF的中间件方案，旨在让科学家远程部署跨多个资源的预先存在的代码的单个或多个实例，并仅对程序代码进行简单修改即可提供转向，可视化和工作流功能。希望这样一个工具包的开发和实现不仅与真实的部署工作站级代码的问题有关，而且还可以转向Globus工具包的更易处理的替代品，用于在高性能计算环境中部署进程。
Web services have the potential to radically enhance the ability of researchers to make use of distributed computing resources, but jargon and a plethora of standards make their use almost impossible for the scientist who has no prior experience of the necessary technologies. A powerful and simple WSRFbased middleware scheme is presented, designed to let scientists remotely deploy single or multiple instances of a pre-existing code across multiple resources, and giving steering, visualisation and workflow functionality with only simple modifications to program code. It is hoped that development and implementation of such a toolkit will be relevant not only to the problem of deploying workstation-class codes in real time, but also move towards more tractable alternatives to the Globus toolkit for deployment of processes in a high-performance computing envi-
