SHIWA project

rdf:langString SHIWA project

rdf:langString The SHIWA project (Sharing Interoperable Workflows for large-scale scientific simulations on Available DCIs) within grid computing was a project led by the LPDS (Laboratory of Parallel and Distributed Systems) of MTA Computer and Automation Research Institute. The project coordinator was Prof. Dr. Peter Kacsuk. It started on 1 July 2010 and lasted two years. SHIWA (project number 261585) was supported by a grant from the European Commission's FP7 INFRASTRUCTURES-2010-2 call under grant agreement n°261585. The SHIWA project developed and deployed the SHIWA Simulation Platform (SSP) to enable infrastructure and workflow interoperability at two levels: * coarse-grained interoperability, referring to the nesting of different workflow systems in order to achieve execution frameworks interoperability; and * fine-grained interoperability, referring to the transformation workflow representations in order to achieve workflows migration from one system to another. After the project ended the SHIWA Technology was overtaken by the ER-flow support action project to provide sustainability and to extend the user community base.
