extends Request

An OGSA-DAI request constructed as a collection of connected activities.

Requests are sent to a data service resource exposed by a data service. The request consists of a number of activities that that manipulate data exposed by the resource. The Activity objects that make up the request will have their corresponding ActivityOutput objects populated with any result data when the response is received by the client toolkit from the data service.
