  • Workspace - a Scientific Workflow System for Enabling Research Impact
    22nd International Congress on Modelling and Simulation, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia, 3 to 8 December 2017 mssanz.org.au/modsim2017 Workspace - a Scientific Workflow System for enabling Research Impact D. Watkinsa, D. Thomasa, L. Hethertona, M. Bolgera, P.W. Clearya a CSIRO Data61, Australia Email: [email protected] Abstract: Scientific Workflow Systems (SWSs) have become an essential platform in many areas of research. Compared to writing research software from scratch, they provide a more accessible way to acquire data, customise inputs and combine algorithms in order to produce research outputs that are reproducible. Today there are a number of SWSs such as Apache Taverna, Galaxy, Kepler, KNIME, Pegasus and CSIRO’s Workspace. Depending on your definition you may also consider environments such as MATLAB or programming languages with dedicated scientific support, such as Python with its SciPy and NumPy libraries, to be SWSs. All address different subsets of requirements, but generally attempt to address at least the following four to varying degrees: 1) improving researcher productivity, 2) providing the ability to create reproducible workflows, 3) enabling collaboration between different research teams, and 4) providing some aspect of portability and interoperability - either between different sciences or computing environments, or both. Most SWSs provide a generic set of capabilities such as a graphical tool to construct, save, load, and edit workflows, and a set of well proven functions, such as file I/O, and an execution environment. Workspace is an SWS that has been under continuous development at CSIRO since 2005. Its development is guided by four core themes; Analyse, Collaborate, Commercialise and Everywhere.

  • Methods Enabling Portability of Scientific Workflows
    METHODS ENABLING PORTABILITY OF SCIENTIFIC WORKFLOWS A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Notre Dame in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Nicholas Hazekamp Douglas Thain, Director Graduate Program in Computer Science and Engineering Notre Dame, Indiana December 2019 c Copyright by Nicholas Hazekamp 2019 All Rights Reserved METHODS ENABLING PORTABILITY OF SCIENTIFIC WORKFLOWS Abstract by Nicholas Hazekamp Scientific workflows are common and powerful tools used to elevate small scale analysis to large scale distributed computation. They provide ease of use for domain scientists by supporting the use of applications as they are, partitioning the data for concurrency instead of the application. However, many of these workflows are written in a way that couples the scientific intention with the specificity of the execution environment. This coupling limits the flexibility and portability of the workflow, requiring the workflow to be re-engineered for each new dataset or site. I propose that workflows can be written for pure scientific intent, with the id- iosyncrasies of execution resolved at runtime using workflow abstractions. These abstractions would allow workflows to be quickly transformed for different configura- tions, specifically handling new datasets, diverse sites, and different configurations. I examine three methods for developing workflow abstraction on static workflows, apply these methods to a dynamic workflow, and propose an approach that separates the user from the distributed environment. In developing these methods for static workflows I first explored Dynamic Work- flow Expansion, which allows workflows to be quickly adapted for new and diverse datasets. Then I describe an algorithm for statically determining a workflow's stor- age needs, which is used at runtime to prevent storage deadlocks.

On the Web of Data (WoD), information sources can be accessed and processed for many purposes. Users need to be aware of any licences or terms of use, which are associated with the data sources they want to use. Conversely, publishers need support in assigning the appropriate policies alongside the data they distribute. In this work, we tackle the problem of policy propagation in data flows - an expression that refers to the way data is consumed, manipulated and produced within processes.

    This manuscript has been accepted at the Future Generation Computer Sys- tems (FGCS). DOI: 10.1016/j.future.2020.07.007 This manuscript is licensed under CC-BY-NC-ND. arXiv:2007.04939v1 [cs.DC] 9 Jul 2020 1 A Programming Model for Hybrid Workflows: combining Task-based Workflows and Dataflows all-in-one Cristian Ramon-Cortesa, Francesc Lordana, Jorge Ejarquea, Rosa M. Badiaa aBarcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) Abstract In the past years, e-Science applications have evolved from large-scale sim- ulations executed in a single cluster to more complex workflows where these simulations are combined with High-Performance Data Analytics (HPDA). To implement these workflows, developers are currently using different patterns; mainly task-based and dataflow. However, since these patterns are usually man- aged by separated frameworks, the implementation of these applications requires to combine them; considerably increasing the effort for learning, deploying, and integrating applications in the different frameworks. This paper tries to reduce this effort by proposing a way to extend task- based management systems to support continuous input and output data to enable the combination of task-based workflows and dataflows (Hybrid Work- flows from now on) using a single programming model. Hence, developers can build complex Data Science workflows with different approaches depending on the requirements. To illustrate the capabilities of Hybrid Workflows, we have built a Distributed Stream Library and a fully functional prototype extending COMPSs, a mature, general-purpose, task-based, parallel programming model. The library can be easily integrated with existing task-based frameworks to provide support for dataflows. Also, it provides a homogeneous, generic, and simple representation of object and file streams in both Java and Python; en- abling complex workflows to handle any data type without dealing directly with the streaming back-end.

  • Intelligent Integrated Digital Platform Insilicokdd in Support of Precision Medicine for Scientific Research
    International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology Vol. 29, No. 7s, (2020), pp. 2101-2109 Intelligent Integrated Digital Platform InSilicoKDD in Support of Precision Medicine for Scientific Research [1]Plamenka Borovska, [2]Iliyan Kordev, [3]Boris Borowsky [1,2,3] Technical University of Sofia, Bulgaria Abstract The paper presents intelligent integrated digital platform InSilicoKDD based on scientific workflows in support of precision medicine designed, implemented and deployed at the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics, Technical University of Sofia. The platform is built upon our method for adaptive in silico knowledge data discovery and intelligent decision making as well as integrated approach to combine and analyze digital data at all stages of breast cancer progress, deploying modern in silico KDD methods and technologies. The conceptual architectural design of InSilicoKDD platform is presented and the software prototype revealed. Functionality and efficiency of InSilicoKDD platform have been verified on the basis of experimentation for the breast cancer issue by configuring and executing scientific workflows encompassing machine learning models for diagnostics and prediction, data sets with results of the biopsy of the cells in the patient's tumor as well as breast cancer risk assessment models. Index Terms—data intensive scientific discovery, in silico knowledge data discovery, precision medicine, scientific workflows platform. I. THE PROBLEM AREA Nowadays personalized and precision medicine [1],[2] are innovative frontier paradigms worldwide and imply adapting and optimizing of medical treatment to the individual characteristics of each patient including genetic specifics, environmental factors and risk factors of life style. Precision medicine has become possible because more people's genomes can be sequenced and more metadata collected for multiple existing therapies, but it is assumed that the most likely path to success comes from analyzing well-defined subgroups of patients.
