It discusses key challenges related to the integration of distributed systems and proposes solutions, both in terms of theoretical aspects such as models and workflow scheduling algorithms, and technical solutions such as software tools and APIs. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book provides an in-depth look at workflow scheduling and proposes a way to integrate several different types of services into one single workflow application. It shows how these components can be expressed as services that can subsequently be integrated into workflow applications. The workflow applications are often described as acyclic graphs with dependencies which allow readers to define complex scenarios in terms of basic tasks.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresents state-of-the-art solutions to challenges in multi-domain workflow application definition, optimization, and execution\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProposes a uniform concept of a service that can represent executable components in all major distributed software architectures used today\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscusses an extended model with determination of data flows among parallel paths of a workflow application\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince workflow applications often process big data, the book explores the dynamic management of data with various storage constraints during workflow execution.
