The document summarizes the Open Grid Computing Environments (OGCE) software tools for building science gateways. It describes several key components:
1) The OGCE Gadget Container allows building portals out of Google gadgets and supports workflows, registries, and experiments.
2) Tools like XBaya allow composing scientific workflows that can run on resources like the TeraGrid.
3) The software is open source and can be used individually or together to power science gateways and provide interfaces and services to computational resources.

3. Software Description OGCE Gadget Container Google Gadget/Open Social compatible software for building Web-based user interfaces. XBaya A visual user interface for composing, launching and monitoring workflows GFAC An application factory service for wrapping command-line tools as Web services XRegistry; Registry Gadget A service and workflow registry and its user interface Experiment Builder User interface for creating online experiments with registered workflows
12. The OGCE Application Registry gadget allows users to interactively register hosts and applications that are dynamically wrapped as Web services.
13. The OGCE Gadget Container allows you to build portals out of public and private Google Open Social gadgets. Supports HTTPS. Downloadable, packaged software.
14. The OGCE Experiment Builder gadget allows users to create projects and experiments out of previously composed workflows.
15. OGCE Tools for Science Workflows The XBaya workflow composer allows you to build scientific workflows from services running across the TeraGrid. This is part of our workflow suite.
