“…In the experiment, we stop at 32 sub-jobs for a workflow because it is much greater than the size of the recognized workflows. As far as we know, with our model of parallel task sub-job, most existing scientific workflows as described by Ludtke et al Ludtke et al (1999), Berriman et al Berriman et al (2003) and Lovas et al Lovas et al (2004) include just 10 to 20 sub-jobs.…”

“…They have also been integrated into underlying local applications, Grid middleware and monitoring systems. For example, P-GRADE [79] [70] interoperates with a wide range of parallel applications in addition to Condor and Globus based Grid middleware. It also allows users to access and modify program code of a workflow task through the graphical editor.…”

With the advent of Grid and application technologies, scientists and engineers are building more and more complex applications to manage and process large data sets, and execute scientific experiments on distributed resources. Such application scenarios require means for composing and executing complex workflows. Therefore, many efforts have been made towards the development of workflow management systems for Grid computing. In this paper, we propose a taxonomy that characterizes and classifies various approaches for building and executing workflows on Grids. We also survey several representative Grid workflow systems developed by various projects world-wide to demonstrate the comprehensiveness of the taxonomy. The taxonomy not only highlights the design and engineering similarities and differences of state-of-the-art in Grid workflow systems, but also identifies the areas that need further research.

“…A significant body of research has been done in the area of workflow management systems in Grid computing [17][18][19][20][21]. In addition, the inspector-executor [22,23] approach for run-time parallelization has some similarities to the application discovery of the SmartGridRPC model.…”

SUMMARYThe paper presents the SmartGridRPC model, an extension of the GridRPC model, which aims to achieve higher performance. The traditional GridRPC provides a programming model and API for mapping individual tasks of an application in a distributed Grid environment, which is based on the client-server model characterized by the star network topology. SmartGridRPC provides a programming model and API for mapping a group of tasks of an application in a distributed Grid environment, which is based on the fully connected network topology. The SmartGridRPC programming model and API and its performance advantages over the GridRPC model are outlined in this paper. In addition, experimental results using a real-world application are also presented.
