UABgrid Documentation

Welcome to the UABgrid

This is a home for documentation. The documentation service is a component of the UABgrid infrastructure and is implemented as a wiki to make it easier to add content. It has been used primarily to document the services available on UABgrid itself, but is open to facilitate other documentation needs. If you see a topic that interests you please feel to contribute. If you don't see a topic and feel it should be covered, please jump in and create the page.

In order to edit the documentation, you'll need to click on the "Login with UABgrid" link in the upper right. Only that link will allow you to login in. It is not possible to log in using the other link.

If you experience any problems with UABgrid or see problems with the way this wiki is operating, please file a bug report. UABgrid is still considered beta and there are many improvements ahead, your problem reports are appreciated.

Note: we're in the early stages of building the documentation, so don't worry too much about where a topic should go. Just add a Wiki link to the list below, save the page, open the link you just created and start typing. We can better organize our topics as the content evolves.
