Abstract

Nowadays, the adoption of Cloud Computing platforms and Service Computing technologies are almost natural for the different e-Science communities. Cost benefits for data-intensive applications, ease of access, rich and varied offers for services are examples of positive returns by users. However, beyond this favorable welcome for the technology, some research problems remain and are still challenging. In this paper, we focus on the problems of automatically deploying IaaS for computing and for data management, using the SlapOS Cloud. The core of the system is a distributed protocol for orchestrating data and compute nodes. Using this interaction scheme, users are able to deploy, without any system administrator intervention, a PaaS inside the IaaS basically a Desktop Grid middleware. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that the Desktop Grid and Cloud paradigms may merge and may be widely used by non-experts in the different areas of e-Science. We propose a fully self-organized volunteer Cloud for researchers where they can carry out e-Science experiments and process large amounts of data in a coherent way.
