Group Summary:
The objective of the OGSA-BES working group is to focus on a minimal sub-set of the EMS services and develop a recommendations document (i.e., specification) for them.

Goals/Deliverables:
Title: OGSA Basic Execution Services Specification (1.0)
Abstract: BES models execution of services in containers that may be implemented in a variety of ways, e.g., by a single Unix or Windows host, by a queuing system, by a hosting environment such as .Net or J2EE, or by more specialized execution containers yet to be invented. BES defines a set of port-types for the simplest, most basic container.

Seven Questions:
1. Is the scope of the proposed group sufficiently focused?
2. Are the topics that the group plans to address clear and relevant for the Grid research, development, industrial, implementation, and/or application user community?
3. Will the formation of the group foster (consensus-based) work that would not be done otherwise?
4. Do the group's activities overlap inappropriately with those of another OGF group or to a group active in another organization such as IETF or W3C?
5. Are there sufficient interest and expertise in the group's topic, with at least several people willing to expend the effort that is likely to produce significant results over time?
6. Does a base of interested consumers (e.g., application developers, Grid system implementers, industry partners, end-users) appear to exist for the planned work?
7. Does the OGF have a reasonable role to play in the determination of the technology?
