Title: Scientific workflow management systems and domain specific applications


1
Scientific workflow management systems and
domain specific applications
  • Zhiming Zhao, Paul van Hooft, and Adam Belloum
  • (The VL-e Integration team and SP2.5)

2
Outline
  • Scientific workflow management systems (SWMS) and
    e-Science
  • SWMS and scientific applications
  • Solutions
  • Activities

3
A big picture Scientific Workflow Management
System (SWMS)
  • In an e-Science environment, a SWMS
  • Automate experiment routines
  • Rapid prototyping of experimental computing
    systems
  • Hide integration details between resources
  • Management of lifecycle of experiments
  • A SWMS crosses different layers of middleware for
    data, computing tasks, information and knowledge.

Scientific Workflow Management System (SWMS)
  • e-Science and e-Science environment
  • Different layers of middleware for data,
    computing tasks, information and knowledge.
  • SWMSs cross these layers
  • A model,
  • An engine,
  • User support.

Knowledge
Information
Computing tasks
Data management
Generic Grid middleware
6
Serve domain specific applications
  • Automate experiment routines
  • Model experiment processes and automate them
  • Rapid prototyping of experimental computing
    systems
  • Utilise e-Science resources (software
    components, Grid services, and tools) to
    construct experimental systems
  • Hide integration details between resources
  • Provide metadata for resource integration
  • Automate discovery and binding
  • Management of lifecycle of experiments
  • Manage meta data
  • Runtime information.

Solutions
  • Short term solution
  • Survey
  • Recommendation
  • Install in PoC
  • Long term solution
  • Abstract the features and incorporate in the VL-e
    framework.

9
Solutions
  • Recommend existing SWMSs (e.g., VLAM-G, Taverna,
    Kepler and Triana)
  • Conduct domain specific research.

Short term.
Long term.
  • Learn lessons from the short term solutions.
  • Abstract the generic features from the short
    solution SWMSs
  • Make new design of the VL-e framework which
    enables the interoperability among domains

10
Activities
  • Regular meetings
  • Joint research paper writing
  • Special issue Semantic Grid in Journal Web
    Semantics http//km.aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de/publica
    tions/semanticgrid/
  • Understanding application use cases
  • Understanding application resources interfaces
  • Providing recommendations
