An Algebraic Approach for
"... Scientific workflows have emerged as a basic abstraction for structuring and executing scientific experiments in computational environments. In many situations, these workflows are computationally and data intensive, thus requiring execution in large-scale parallel computers. However, parallelizatio ..."

of scientific workflows. We conducted a thorough validation of our approach using both a real oil exploitation application and synthetic data scenarios. The experiments were run in Chiron, a data-centric scientific workflow engine implemented to support our algebraic approach. Our experiments demonstrate
Scientific Workflows Abstractions for Parallel and Distributed Computing
"... Abstract. Workflow based environments provide a useful approach to support adequate abstraction levels for scientists and engineers, and also allow flexibility in the mappings between the application abstractions and the lower layers of the underlying computing plataforms. In this brief introduction ..."

A Chemical Workflow Engine for Scientific Workflows with Dynamicity Support
"... In this paper the notion of a Chemical Workflow Engine (CWE) is introduced to support the enactment of scientific workflows, i.e. computationally intensive tasks involving large datasets. The execution of scientific workflows require the coordinated use of a large quantity of resources and schedulin ..."

Robust Workflows for Science and Engineering
"... Scientific workflow tools allow users to specify complex computational experiments and provide a good framework for robust science and engineering. Workflows consist of pipelines of tasks that can be used to explore the behaviour of some system, involving computations that are either performed local ..."

A Physical and Virtual Compute Cluster Resource Load Balancing Approach to Data-Parallel Scientific Workflow Scheduling*
"... Abstract — To execute workflows on a compute cluster re-source, workflow engines can work with cluster resource manager software to distribute jobs into compute nodes on the cluster. We discuss how to interact with traditional Oracle Grid Engine and recent Hadoop cluster resource managers using a da ..."
