When the workflow application is executed in Service-Oriented Grid (SOG), performance issues such as service scheduling should be considered, to achieve high and stable performance...
This paper studies five real-world data intensive workflow applications in the fields of natural language processing, astronomy image analysis, and web data analysis. Data intensiv...
Abstract--The Grid is an heterogeneous and dynamic environment which enables distributed computation. This makes it a technology prone to failures. Some related work uses replicati...
In this paper we propose a systematic approach to performance analysis of workflow applications on the Grid. We introduce an ideal model for the workflow execution time and explain...

Efficient data management is a key component in achieving good performance for scientific workflows in distributed environments. Workflow applications typically communicate data be...
Workflow management systems guide and monitor tasks performed by humans and computers. The workflow specifications are usually expressed in special purpose (graphical) formalisms....

Workflow applications executed in Grid environments are not able to take advantage of all the potential parallelism they might have. This limitation in the usage of parallelism com...
Practical experience indicates that the definition of realworld workflow applications is a complex and error-prone process. Existing workflow management systems provide the means,...
