Workflow Patterns [PDF]

open access: yesDistributed and Parallel Databases, 2003
Differences in features supported by the various contemporary commercial workflow management systems point to different insights of suitability and different levels of expressive power. The challenge, which we undertake in this paper, is to systematically address workflow requirements, from basic to complex.

Workflow evolution

Data & Knowledge Engineering, 1996
Summary: A basic step towards flexibility in workflow systems is the consistent and effective management of workflow evolution, i.e. of changing existing workflows while they are operational. One of the most challenging issue is the handling of running instances when their schemata are modified: simple solutions can be devised, but they often imply ...

Workflow as a service

Proceedings of the 3rd international workshop on Emerging computational methods for the life sciences, 2012
Task farming is often used to enable parameter sweep for exploration of large sets of initial conditions for large scale complex simulations. Available solutions enable to perform parameter sweep by creating multiple grid job submissions with different parameters.
