NSF Workshop on Challenges of Scientific Workflows
نویسندگان
چکیده
Prior to the workshop, the attendees were asked to submit a one-page research statement describing current work (including citations and web pointers) and outlining future topics of research in scientific workflows. This document is a compilation of those statements, grouped according to the four planned discussion topics for the workshop. 1) Applications and requirements: What are the requirements of future applications? What new capabilities are needed to support emerging applications? 2) Dynamic workflows and user steering: What are the challenges in supporting dynamic workflows that need to evolve over time as execution data become available? What kinds of techniques can support incremental and dynamic workflow evolution due to user steering?

Report on the 2006 NSF Workshop on Challenges of Scientific Workflows
Workflows have recently emerged as a paradigm for representing and managing complex distributed scientific computations and therefore accelerate the pace of scientific progress. A recent workshop on the Challenges of Scientific Workflows, sponsored by the National Science Foundation and held on May 1-2, 2006, brought together domain scientists, computer scientists, and social scientists to disc...
متن کاملA Clustering Approach to Scientific Workflow Scheduling on the Cloud with Deadline and Cost Constraints
One of the main features of High Throughput Computing systems is the availability of high power processing resources. Cloud Computing systems can offer these features through concepts like Pay-Per-Use and Quality of Service (QoS) over the Internet. Many applications in Cloud computing are represented by workflows. Quality of Service is one of the most important challenges in the context of sche...
متن کاملThe future of scientific workflows
Today’s computational, experimental, and observational sciences rely on computations that involve many related tasks. The success of a scientific mission often hinges on the computer automation of these workflows. In April 2015, the US Department of Energy (DOE) invited a diverse group of domain and computer scientists from national laboratories supported by the Office of Science, the National ...
متن کاملMetadata Workflows Across Research Domains: Challenges and Opportunities for Supporting the DFC Cyberinfrastructure
Metadata is necessary to find, use, and properly manage scientific data. Sharing metadata workflows across different communities is thus crucial for promoting data interoperability and reuse. The DataNet Federation Consortium (DFC) is a project within the NSF Office of CyberInfrastructure DataNet initiative. One widespread problem that the DFC seeks to address is the unfortunate reality that “m...
متن کاملManaging Scientific Data: From Data Integration to Scientific Workflows∗
Scientists are confronted with significant datamanagement problems due to the large volume and high complexity of scientific data. In particular, the latter makes data integration a difficult technical challenge. In this paper, we describe our work on semantic mediation and scientific workflows, and discuss how these technologies address integration challenges in scientific data management. We ...
