Task management involves task creation and execution. These are facilitated using a task schema as exemplified in the Hercules Task Manager. Experience with Hercules has shown the task schema to be very useful for task creation, but less than ideal for task resolution, i.e., the selection of tool and data resources to be used in execution. Tool/data interactions often lead to resource selection constraints that cannot be captured using dependency relationships in the schema. We have addressed this by adding conditions to the task schema which use task-level meta-data to constrain resource selection. With examples we show that conditions are useful for handling a wide variety of real constraints.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
