Description
Summary:The need for design primitives for scientific workflows has steadily increased over the years and, actually, has become more pronounced in recent years, with the employment of user-friendly scientific workflow management systems. In this paper, we conduct a comparative study between business and scientific workflows initiatives based on common workflow patterns found in business workflow. This study demonstrates some precise differences and identifies some key scientific workflow patterns that can be used in dataflow oriented scientific workflow systems without compromising the data-oriented modeling in scientific workflow.
