SUMMARY:Data-Aware and Simulation-Driven Planning of Scientific Workflows 
 on IaaS Clouds
DESCRIPTION:Workshop\n\nData-Aware and Simulation-Driven Planning of Scien
 tific Workflows on IaaS Clouds\n\nN'Takpé, Gnimassoun, Oumtanaga, Suter\n\
 nThe promise of an easy access to a virtually unlimited number of resource
 s makes Infrastructure as a Service Clouds a good candidate for the execut
 ion of data-intensive workflow applications composed of hundreds of comput
 ational tasks. Thanks to a careful execution planning, Workflow Management
  Systems can build a tailored compute infrastructure by combining a set of
  virtual machine instances. However, these applications usually rely on fi
 les to handle dependencies between tasks. A storage space shared by all vi
 rtual machines may become a bottleneck and badly impact the application ex
 ecution time. \n\nIn this paper, we propose an original data-aware plannin
 g algorithm that leverages two characteristics of a family of virtual mach
 ines instances, i.e., a large number of cores and a dedicated storage spac
 e on fast SSD drives, to improve data locality, hence reducing the amount 
 of data transfers over the network during the execution of a workflow. We 
 also propose a simulation-driven approach to solve a cost-performance opti
 mization problem and correctly dimension the virtual infrastructure onto w
 hich execute a given workflow. Experiments conducted with real application
  workflows show the benefits of the presented algorithms. The data-aware p
 lanning leads to a clear reduction of both execution time and volume of da
 ta transferred over the network while the simulation-driven approach allow
 s us to dimension the infrastructure in a reasonable time.\n\nTag: Worksho
