Dear Colleague,
Sorry for multiple copies of this email ... Please find attached the
call for participation for WORKS09 which will take place at SC09. We
hope you will consider coming to the workshop this year in Portland.

Call for Participation for the 4th Workshop on
Workflows in Support of Large-Scale Science
in conjunction with SC’09
Portland, OR
November 16, 2009

In recent years workflows have emerged as a key technology that
enables large-scale computations and service management on distributed
resources. Workflows enable scientists to design complex analysis that
are composed of individual application components or services. Often
times these components and services are designed, developed, and
tested collaboratively. The size of the data and the complexity of the
analysis often lead to large amounts of shared resources, such as
clusters and storage systems, being used to store the data sets and
execute the workflows. The process of workflow design and execution in
a distributed environment can be very complex and can involve multiple
stages including their textual or graphical specification, the mapping
of the high-level workflow descriptions onto the available resources,
as well as monitoring and debugging of the subsequent execution.
Further, since computations and data access operations are performed
on shared resources, there is an increased interest in managing the
fair allocation and management of those resources at the workflow level.
