For over a decade, X509 Proxy Certificates are used in High Energy Physics (HEP) to authenticate users and guarantee their membership in
Virtual Organizations, on which subsequent authorization, e.g. for
data access, is based upon. Although the established infrastructure
worked well and provided sufficient security, the implementation of

As data volumes grow rapidly in the science domain, the ability to process this data efficiently is becoming increasingly of interest. While in many applications the processing of very large volumes can be accomplished efficiently with map/reduce algorithms (e.g., using frameworks such as Hadoop), this does not cover a large class of problems which are best run in an HPC environment. This...
