Description
Summary:In existing web services-based workflow, data exchanging across the web services is centralized, the workflow engine intermediates at each step of the application sequence. However, many grid applications, especially data intensive scientific applications, require exchanging large amount of data across the grid services. Having a central workflow engine relay the data between the services would resu'lts in a bottleneck in these cases. This paper proposes a data exchange model for individual grid workflow and multiworkflows composition respectively. The model enables direct communication for large amounts of data between two grid services. To enable data to exchange among multiple workflows, the bridge data service is used.
