In this book, the use of the industry standard BPEL, a Turing-complete workflow language for modeling business processes, is proposed for the modeling and the execution of scientific workflows. BPEL is well suited for the modeling of scientific workflows, but existing implementations of the standard lack important properties - such as availability, reliability, and scalability - that are necessary for the execution of scientific workflows. This work presents components that extend an existing implementation of the BPEL standard and eliminate the identified weaknesses. Those components include...
