The 5th Workshop on
Workflows in Support of Large-Scale Science
in conjunction with SC'10
New Orleans, LA
November 14, 2010
http://www.isi.edu/works10
Scientific workflows are a key technology that enables large-scale computations
and service management on distributed resources. Workflows enable scientists to
design complex analysis that are composed of individual application components
or services and often such components and services are designed, developed, and
tested collaboratively.
The size of the data and the complexity of the analysis often lead to large
amounts of shared resources, such as clusters and storage systems, being used
to store the data sets and execute the workflows. The process of workflow
design and execution in a distributed environment can be very complex and can
involve multiple stages including their textual or graphical specification, the
mapping of the high-level workflow descriptions onto the available resources,
as well as monitoring and debugging of the subsequent execution. Further,
since computations and data access operations are performed on shared
resources, there is an increased interest in managing the fair allocation and
management of those resources at the workflow level.
Large-scale scientific applications pose several requirements on the workflow
systems. Besides the magnitude of data processed by the workflow components,
the intermediate and resulting data needs to be annotated with provenance and
other information to evaluate the quality of the data and support the
repeatability of the analysis. Further, adequate workflow descriptions are
needed to support the complex workflow management process which includes
workflow creation, workflow reuse, and modifications made to the workflow over
time-for example modifications to the individual workflow components.
Additional workflow annotations may provide guidelines and requirements for
resource mapping and execution.
The Fifth Workshop on Workflows in Support of Large-Scale Science focuses on
the entire workflow lifecycle including the workflow composition, mapping,
robust execution and the recording of provenance information. The workshop
also welcomes contributions in the applications area, where the requirements on
the workflow management systems can be derived. Special attention will be paid
to Bio-Computing applications which are the theme for SC10. The topics of the
workshop include but are not limited to:
* Workflow applications and their requirements with special emphasis on
Bio-Computing applications.
* Workflow composition, tools and languages.
* Workflow user environments, including portals.
* Workflow refinement tools that can manage the workflow mapping process.
* Workflow execution in distributed environments.
* Workflow fault-tolerance and recovery techniques.
* Data-driven workflow processing.
* Adaptive workflows.
* Workflow monitoring.
* Workflow optimizations.
* Performance analysis of workflows
* Workflow debugging.
* Workflow provenance.
* Interactive workflows.
* Workflow interoperability
* Mashups and workflows
* Workflows on the cloud.
