Grid Application Framework for Java (GAF4J) is a lightweight framework that abstracts all grid semantics from the application logic and provides a simpler programming model that lines up smoothly with common Java programming models. It abstracts the details of interfacing with a grid middleware, which is assumed to be the Globus Toolkit, for transferring files to remote nodes, starting remote jobs, and monitoring their execution status. It provides a simpler programming model that enables the development of maintainable Java applications uncluttered with calls to grid services.
