As the future pervasive and ubiquitous computing environment will be composed of resources from local computing, Grid, SOA and Web infrastructures, the complexity of this distributed system will increase significantly. At the same time the end user wants easy and simple access to his computing environment while he receives more responsibilities i.e. for the composition and the management of the system. In order to perform his daily work, the end user needs a general workbench toolset which

Currently, the g-Eclipse framework includes contextualised perspectives for Grid end users, Grid resource provider and Grid application developers. The abstraction layer of the g-Eclipse system, its integration in the Eclipse framework and the main use cases are presented.
