  3. Outline • Workflow Management in Grids • Pegasus, Planning for Execution in Grids • Applications Using Pegasus • In-time planning • Future Research Directions Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  4. Grid Applications • Increasing in the level of complexity • Use of individual application components • Reuse of individual intermediate data products (files) • Description of Data Products using Metadata Attributes • Execution environment is complex and very dynamic • Resources come and go • Data is replicated • Components can be found at various locations or staged in on demand • Separation between • the application description • the actual execution description Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  5. Abstract Workflow Generation Concrete Workflow Generation Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  6. Why Automate Workflow Generation? • Usability: Limit User’s necessary Grid knowledge • Monitoring and Directory Service • Replica Location Service • Complexity: • User needs to make choices • Alternative application components • Alternative files • Alternative locations • The user may reach a dead end • Many different interdependencies may occur among components • Solution cost: • Evaluate the alternative solution costs • Performance • Reliability • Resource Usage • Global cost: • minimizing cost within a community or a virtual organization • requires reasoning about individual user’s choices in light of other user’s choices Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  7. GriPhyN’sExecutable Workflow Construction • Build an abstract workflow based on VDL descriptions (Chimera) • Build an executable workflow based on the abstract workflows (Pegasus) • Execute the workflow (Condor’s DAGMan) Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  8. Abstract Workflow VDL and Abstract Workflow VDL descriptions User request data file “c” Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  9. Condor’s DAGMan • Developed at UW Madison (Livny) • Executes a concrete workflow • Makes sure the dependencies are followed • Execute the jobs specified in the workflow • Execution • Data movement • Catalog updates • Provides a “rescue DAG” in case of failure Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  10. Pegasus:Planning for Execution in Grids • Maps from abstract to concrete workflow • Algorithmic and AI-based techniques • Automatically locates physical locations for both components (transformations) and data • Finds appropriate resources to execute • Reuses existing data products where applicable • Publishes newly derived data products • Chimera virtual data catalog • Provides provenance information Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  11. Information ComponentsUsed by Pegasus • Globus Monitoring and Discovery Service (MDS) • Locates available resources • Finds resource properties • Dynamic: load, queue length • Static: location of gridftp server, RLS, etc • Globus Replica Location Service • Locates data that may be replicated • Registers new data products • Transformation Catalog • Locates installed executables Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  12. Example Workflow Reduction • Original abstract workflow • If “b” already exists (as determined by query to the RLS), the workflow can be reduced Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  13. Mapping from abstract to concrete • Query RLS, MDS, and TC, schedule computation and data movement Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  14. Montage • Montage (NASA and NVO) • Deliver science-grade custom mosaics on demand • Produce mosaics from a wide range of data sources (possibly in different spectra) • User-specified parameters of projection, coordinates, size, rotation and spatial sampling. Mosaic created by Pegasus based Montage from a run of the M101 galaxy images on the Teragrid. Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  15. Small Montage Workflow ~1200 nodes Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  16. Montage Acknowledgments • Bruce Berriman, John Good, Anastasia Laity, Caltech/IPAC • Joseph C. Jacob, Daniel S. Katz, JPL • http://montage.ipac. caltech.edu/ • Testbed for Montage: Condor pools at USC/ISI, UW Madison, and Teragrid resources at NCSA, PSC, and SDSC. Montage is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Earth Science Technology Office, Computational Technologies Project, under Cooperative Agreement Number NCC5-626 between NASA and the California Institute of Technology.

  17. Applications Using Chimera, Pegasus and DAGMan • GriPhyN applications: • High-energy physics: Atlas, CMS (many) • Astronomy: SDSS (Fermi Lab, ANL) • Gravitational-wave physics: LIGO (Caltech, AEI) • Astronomy: • Galaxy Morphology (NCSA, JHU, Fermi, many others, NVO-funded) • Biology • BLAST (ANL, PDQ-funded) • Neuroscience • Tomography for Telescience(SDSC, NIH-funded) Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  18. Current System Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  19. Workflow Refinement and execution User’s Workflow refinement Request Levels of abstraction Application Policy info Workflow repair -level knowledge Relevant components Logical tasks Full abstract workflow Tasks bound to Task matchmaker resources and sent for Partial execution execution Not yet time executed executed Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  20. Incremental Refinement • Partition Abstract workflow into partial workflows Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  21. Meta-DAGMan Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  22. Conclusions • Pegasus maps complex workflows onto the Grid • Uses Grid information services to find resources, data and executables • Reduces the workflow based on existing intermediate products • Used in many applications • Part of GriPhyN’s Virtual Data Toolkit Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  23. Future Directions • Investigate various scheduling techniques • Investigating fault tolerance issues • Enable flexible interactions between workflow refiners (GriPhyN-wide scope: Pegasus, DAGMan) http://pegasus.isi.edu • GGF10 workshop on workflow management • GGF Workflow management research group deelman@isi.edu Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute

  24. The Grid Now Syntax-based matchmaking of resources to job requirements Condor matchmaker Attribute based discovery and selection Scheduling of jobs based on Grid-able users that specify job execution sequences and computing requirements Scripting languages Workflow languages, Task graphs Explicit mappings from task to jobs, simple job brokers Explicit service negotiation and recovery strategies The Future Grid Knowledge-based reasoning about resources enables Semantic matchmaking Aggregate resource reasoning Task-level reasoning to plan and schedule jobs and resources More agility and coordination Wide range of users can specify high level requirements in a mixed-initiative mode Mapping of high-level requirements to details required for execution End-to-end resource negotiation and adaptive strategies to accommodate failure Summary: Ewa Deelman Information Sciences Institute
