Abstract

In recent years, numerous software systems have been developed specifically for supporting the management of scientific processes and workflows (see, e.g., [1] or [2] for surveys). Research in this comparatively new field is currently evolving in interesting new directions. Already at the ISoLA symposium in 2010 we focused on workflow management for scientific applications in the scope of a symposium track on “Tools in scientific workflow composition” [3].
