##article.abstract##

The GRID infrastructures have mainly been used for solving very complex scientific problems, in particular in the field of physics. One of the goal of the Sicilian GRID is to extend the use of this powerful infrastructure to other kinds of application either from academia and from the industrial world. In this paper, we present how two completely different applications are being usefully ported in the GRID infrastructure to offer improved services to the final users, and the problems encountered for doing so.
