[kepler-users] WORKSHOP: Advances in the Kepler Scientific Workflow System and Its Applications (Weblink: http://tiny.cc/4zunh)

[Ilkay Altintas]

Dear All,

When submitting your abstract or paper, please also send email to the workshop organizers, indicating the following:

(1) Title and category of paper(s) submitted

(2) Do you need participant support to cover (part of) your travel expenses? (e.g. economy airfare)
[Yes/No]

(3) If your answer is Yes to (2), please provide a rough estimate and brief explanation of travel support requested.

The workshop organizers will prioritize travel support and inform prospective participants within a week after paper submission.

>> INTRODUCTION
>> 
>> Kepler (kepler-project.org) is an open-source, cross-project collaboration to develop a scientific workflow system for multiple disciplines, providing a workflow environment for scientists, in which they can design and execute workflows. The Kepler Scientific Workflow System supports the design, execution, and management of scientific and engineering workflows through dedicated capabilities including provenance management, run management and reporting tools, integration of distributed computation and data management technologies, ability to ingest local and remote scripts, and sensor management and data streaming interfaces.
>> 
>> The Kepler software is developed and maintained by the cross-project Kepler collaboration, which is led by a team consisting of several of the key institutions that originated the project. This workshop aims to bring researchers and developers contributing to Kepler together with informaticians and computational scientists using Kepler in order to communicate recent advances in Kepler and facilitate new development and collaborations.
>> 
>> TOPICS
>> 
>> The topics of interest for submission include, but are not limited to:
>> ·       State-of-the-Art Kepler Application Examples and Success Stories
>> ·       Requirements from Existing and Potential Kepler Communities
