Workflows provide a systematic way of describing the analysis and rely on workflow management systems to execute the complex analyses on a variety of distributed resources. This workshop focuses both on application experiences and the many facets of workflow management that operate at a number of levels ranging from job execution to service management and the coordination of data, service and job dependencies. The workshop covers a broad range of issues in the scientific workflow lifecycle that include but are not limited to: designing workflow composition interfaces; mapping techniques that may optimize the execution of the workflow; enactment engines that need to deal with failures in the application and execution environment; and a number of computer science problems related to scientific workflows such as semantic technologies, compiler methods, fault detection and tolerance.
