Dynamic Reusable Workflows for Ocean Science

Dynamic Reusable Workflows for Ocean Science

Digital catalogs of ocean data have been available for decades, but advances in standardized services and software for catalog searches and data access now make it possible to create catalog-driven workflows that automate—end-to-end—data search, analysis, and visualization of data from multiple distributed sources. Further, these workflows may be shared, reused, and adapted with ease. Here we d...

Reusable Interaction Protocols for Workflows

With the advent of collaborative business processes that may include different parties, the interaction means between those processes steadily gains more importance. Despite this issue the modeling of message-based interactions is very complex and errorprone due to the inherent properties of asynchronous communication. In order to alleviate this problem several predefined interaction protocols ...

Dynamic Workflows for Grid Applications

In the Grid computing community, there are several approaches to execute not only single tasks on single Grid resources but also to support workflow schemes that enable the composition and execution of complex Grid applications. The most commonly used workflow model for this purpose is the Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG). Within the establishment of the Fraunhofer Resource Grid, we developed a Gri...

Grid-Workflows in Molecular Science

Computational Chemistry gathers information about properties of molecules based on compute intensive simulations. In this area, workflows are an essential instrument for managing complex simulations cascades. The aim of the MoSGrid project is an easy to use Grid integration of such workflows based on a portal that covers the complexity. This paper presents an initial general description of work...
