Workflow Management with Balsam

In this interactive webinar, we explore Balsam, a workflow manager that automatically packages application runs for parallel execution, provides strong tolerance to task faults, and tracks the workflow status and usage statistics in a user-managed database. The session also covers how Balsam can be used to manage a large set of independent jobs or a dynamic workflow with inter-task dependencies, and emphasize the user-friendliness of the existing Theta module and command line interfaces to Balsam. This month&webinar is led by Misha Salim of the ALCF&Data Science team. About ALCF Many-Core Developer Sessions: This webinar series is aimed at increasing the dialogue between ALCF users and the developers of many-core systems and software. Attendees are encouraged to bring any questions related to the ALCF&Theta system and/or the Intel Xeon Phi technology.
