Abstract :
Grid applications are becoming an integral part of e-science because of science´s need for intensive computing and large knowledge base. In order to have capable applications that interact with real world science, the instruments must be accessible and represented in the grid middleware. In this paper, we present the overview, design and initial implementation of a standard model for instruments and sensors inspired by the work done for IEEE1451 and built on WSRF. This model can be used by grid applications for different purposes such as laboratory planning, instrument control and sensor monitoring
