Gridbus Workflow Engine
from the GRIDS Lab Web page:Gridbus Workflow Engine (GWFE) facilitates users to link standalone applications and execute their workflow applications on Grids. GWFE provides a XML-based workflow language for the users to define tasks and dependencies. It also supports a just in-time scheduling system, thus allowing the resource allocation decision to be made at the time of task execution and hence adapt to changing grid environments. We also use tuple spaces approach to enable an event-driven scheduling architecture for simplifying workflow execution.
The GWFE is developed by the Gridbus Project, Grid Computing and Distributed Systems (GRIDS) Lab., Dept. of Computer Science and Software Engineering, the University of Melbourne, Australia. The project is partially supported by Australian Research Council Discovery Project grant, Storage Technology and the University of Melbourne.
