ORBWork: A CORBA-Based Fully Distributed, Scalable and Dynamic Workflow Enactment Service for METEOR
نویسندگان
چکیده
Second generation workflow management systems need to deal with heterogeneity of platforms within and across cooperating enterprises along with legacy applications and data. At the same time, there is increasing demand for advanced features for supporting missioncritical processes, including adaptability through dynamic changes and scalability. The workflow management system METEOR is based on open systems and standards and utilizes CORBA and Java. This allows METEOR to provide high-end workflow management combined with application and data integration capabilities in increasingly network-centric environments.

To use services transparently in a distributed environment, the Utility Grids develop a cyber-infrastructure. The parameters of the Quality of Service such as the allocation-cost and makespan have to be dealt with in order to schedule workflow application tasks in the Utility Grids. Optimization of both target parameters above is a challenge in a distributed environment and may conflict one an...
متن کاملDynamic Workflow Management in CORBA Distributed Object Systems
We are beginning to see distributed dynamic workflow management systems being implemented using CORBA services. However these systems do not use events as the mechanism for co-ordinating workflows. Instead workflow components use messages to communicate with each other; thereby resulting in tightly coupled systems. We investigate the use of events as the co-ordinating mechanism for implementing...
