Hi Hiro and the Teams, We discussed your presentation at the CDDLM meeting. We have questions about the following aspects: 1. The presented comparison is a little bit of apples-to-oranges. We are comparing a job submission with the deployment tool. What exactly do we want to accomplish? For example, should we provide a list of "JSDL document does not include" as an equivalent to slide 6 in the last presentation you have sent? 2. You start from a radically simple case, which does not emphasize any of the CDL features: dependencies, lazy evaluation, naming, etc. You do not even have the need to deploy the BLAST application, it is stored in a well know location on the local system. Should we not expand it for where there is a need for deployment? 3. Is this example good enough for you? What about other more complex scenarios? Do you plan to introduce them. I think for balanced evaluation, you may want to address two scenarios upfront and how they are addressed by both tools. In a summary, how should we take it further? Should we extend the example you had with what CDL does? Should we target the F2F for this purpose? Thanks, Dejan. Also, I include the follow-up message From Jun Tatemura, which further clarifies: I went through the newer version of CDLforBLAST slides. My understanding on this slides is that they expect CDDLM/CDL to deploy (configure) - application binary (installation of blast binary and required environment) - file system (mount file system) - database (setup -- I don't know details on what must be set up...) - environment variables and let JSDL do the rest. If so, what we can do would be: (1) first, we want to confirm that this is the line they want to draw (--> your question 1 comes here. It this what they mean?) (2) if we agree on the line, then we would like to have more information on the requirement (and/or assumed environment) to deploy the above so that we can design CDDLM components for this use case. (--> your questions 2,3 are aligned with this - how much we should extend the deployment requirements from the base case (where everything is already available)) (3) Once we have components, we can write CDL and discuss how CDL and JSDL interact.
