While the majority of e-Infrastructures that are set up within the European Research Area by such projects as EGEE, DEISA etc. are basically focused on providing the high-performance computing support for scientific applications, a diverse set of the scientific communities coming from various fields (e.g. earthquake, environmental science, experimental science communities) develop and operate experimental equipment and remote instrumentation that have not been integrated yet or only partially integrated within the European Grid e-Infrastructure. The Deployment of Remote Instrumentation Infrastructure (DORII) project aims at setting up an advanced Grid-based e-Infrastructure specifically oriented to the support of remote instrumentation devices on Grid extending the level of scientific instruments' exploitation. The paper highlights the main application areas and usage scenarios, key tasks of the Remote Instrumentation Infrastructure’s deployment and presents the joint research architecture for DORII in terms of advanced middleware solutions addressing the main tasks of identified applications.

Experimental stations in facilities like Synchrotrons and Free Electron Lasers produce very large data sets. With access to distributed computing paradigms and Grid infrastructures, the data are processed on-line. This requires considerable computing power and storage requirements. Moreover, the constant advances in sensors, detectors, and light source technologies yield frequent upgrades of the instrumentation and proportional increase of the computing requirements. Other than the computing needs, a key-point for successful experiments is the efficient collaboration between the involved scientists and their convenient access to the research facilities. A viable solution is developing suitable infrastructures that allow remote operation of the experimental facilities. We focus on the importance of the transparent integration of instruments in the traditional Grid. Such capability boosts further the concept of remote operation, on-line & off-line processing, and builds collaborative and distributed virtual research environments. Building on the foundations of previous European projects, the aim of DORII (Deployment of Remote Instrumentation Infrastructure) [1] is to develop and operate an infrastructure that addresses this issue and supports multiple activities of eScience. We will describe how we have applied the DORII infrastructure on remote operations and on-line & off-line processing in a synchrotron radiation facility.
