Abstract

This paper introduces a directed hypergraph modelthat supports (1) workflow composition and reconfigurationwhile accessing and executing programs, data, and computingresources across the Internet, (2) synchronous and asynchronouspeer-to-peer interaction between members of anyteam during workflow composition and execution, (3) synchronousand asynchronous peer-to-workflow interaction betweenany team member and any object in the workflow.Given a library of program and data nodes, editing theworkflow and its execution is as intuitive as the hierarchicalschematic design capture and simulation.Examples of multi-sitemulti-user applications demonstrate that the proposedworkflow implementation provides a user-friendly paradigmfor distracted and collaborative team design.
