A new Collaborative Grid Framework named GriF has been developed and validated to run on the Grid by considering as a study case quantum reactive scattering codes. Its use as a tool of Science Gateways to facilitate massive calculations also with the aim of improving scientific collaboration is discussed. Accordingly, a preliminary study on how to profile the users of virtual organizations in order to pave the way to a systematic evaluation of the work carried out in the Grid and to foster its sustainability, is presented.
Research highlights► Efficient and reliable run of massive calculations on the EGI Grid with minimum computer expertise. ► Easy management of Grid jobs and results through graphical interfaces. ► Profiling users of Virtual Research Communities for QoU (Quality of User) evaluation. ► Paving the way to a systematic evaluation of collaborative computing.
