    Hi Hao,<br>
    <br>
        There is a talk on<b> Interactive Scientific Workflows</b> in
    Kepler (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/pubs/814.html">http://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/pubs/814.html</a>). You can have
    a look at the talk and learn from it.<br>

      </div>
      <div>I can't answer your first question about whether there are
        actors that you may be able to use for this. However, the
        master-slave actors that Jianwu developed may be able to help. I
        have cc'ed him on this reply.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>As far as your second question, the way you would new GUI
        capabilities to Kepler is by developing your own modules and
        adding appropriate code to the existing GUI as appropriate.
        Information on creating your own modules is here:</div>

      <div>Some further GUI related instructions are here:</div>

      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>That is a place to start. Modifying the Kepler GUI is usually
        not a trivial process, depending on what you want to do.</div>

                <p class="MsoNormal">In my scientific workflow, the
                  computation run on remote cluster, and users use
                  kepler on their local machines to control the
                  workflow. At some stages of the workflow, the cluster
                  need to send some information to kepler, and according
                  to the information, the user need to provide some
                  parameters for the computation. Then Kepler need to
                  send the parameter to cluster to resume the
                  computation. I am not clear if there are already some
                  actors I can use to implement this? And how to develop
                  GUI in kepler so user can interact with the workflow?</p>
