How does WSRF relate to the Open Grid Services Infrastructure?
The WS-Resource Framework is inspired by the work of the Global Grid Forum’s Open Grid Services Infrastructure (OGSI) Working Group. Indeed, it can be viewed as a straightforward refactoring of the concepts and interfaces developed in the OGSI version 1.0 specification, in a manner that exploits recent developments in Web services architecture (e.g., WS-Addressing) to express these concepts and interfaces in a manner that is fully aligned with current Web services directions. More details on this relationship can be found in the document From OGSI to WSRF: Refactoring and Evolution and in the answers to other questions below.
