今天，许多科学学科严重依赖计算机系统进行计算机实验或数据管理和分析。所使用的计算机硬件和软件是异构的，遵循不同的标准、接口和协议进行互操作。像UNICORE 6这样的网格中间件系统试图通过为执行计算任务或存储、移动和搜索数据提供高级统一接口来隐藏底层系统的一些复杂性。通过UNICORE 6，可以使用不同的软件客户端安全地访问计算机资源，例如UNICORE命令行客户端（UCC）或基于Eclipse的图形UNICORE富客户端（URC）。在本文中，我们描述了URC的设计和特性，并以QSAR字段为例，强调了它作为一个灵活和可扩展的网格客户端框架的作用。
Today, many scientific disciplines heavily rely on computer systems for in-silico experimentation or data management and analysis. The employed computer hard- and software is heterogeneous and complies to different standards, interfaces and protocols for interoperation. Grid middleware systems like UNICORE 6 try to hide some of the complexity of the underlying systems by offering high-level, uniform interfaces for executing computational jobs or storing, moving, and searching through data. Via UNICORE 6 computer resources can be accessed securely with different software clients, e.g. the UNICORE Command line Client (UCC) or the graphical UNICORE Rich Client (URC) which is based on Eclipse. In this paper, we describe the design and features of the URC, and highlight its role as a flexible and extensible Grid client framework using the QSAR field as an example.
