Abstract Details

2022, MS, Kent State University, College of Arts and Sciences / Department of Computer Science.
HPC and scientific workflows change over time and often require more resources, different parameters and environments. Workflows may eventually have a need for more resources than are available on a single platform. Also, as applications evolve to fit new requirements and design goals, their performance and how well they can scale on existing hardware needs to be measured to ensure optimal application development and design. New workflows, as well as existing workflows, will require next-generation workflow engines that are able to handle multiple platforms, testing of scalability as well as communication and monitoring of applications, all designed to allow for greater portability and reproducibility. In this work I will demonstrate extensions to the Build and Execute Environment (BEE) workflow orchestration system, as well as additional code known as BeeSwarm, that are used for testing scalability and performance of existing HPC applications. This work also encompasses new design choices in BEE that allow for running workflows across multiple underlying systems, thus not limiting workflows to only the resources that are available on a single system.
