Workflow Management in Open OnDemand

We have extended the Project Manager capabilities of the Open OnDemand science gateway systems with an integrated Workflow Manager. It enables researchers to visually construct, execute, and monitor simple workflows composed of multiple “launchers” (i.e. independent tasks/jobs) connected via output to input dependencies. The system supports conditional execution paths, real-time error reporting, and a simple UI design to serve both novice and advanced HPC system users. The new Workflow Manager lowers the barrier to entry for computational scientists and facilitates the creation of customizable solutions for a wide range of computational science workflows.
