Chris A. Mattmann updated OODT-70:
----------------------------------
Attachment: OODT-70.Mattmann.062611.patch.txt
- started to port WEngine-style model repository over to trunk/workflow. Just
the WEngineModel repo. Don't have some other patches in place, so can't load
all the information present in Wengine, but will work to make those official
parts of the workflow model.
> Add ability for sequential and parallel task specifications for Workflows

> There has been a lot of internal JPL work on flushing out new ideas with the
> workflow manager. One of those new ideas is to explicitly support
> differentiating between different types of
> {code}org.apache.oodt.cas.workflow.WorkflowTask{code} entities, classifying
> them as *sequential* (their current form) versus *parallel* (those that deal
> explcitly with branch and bound). Even though the current workflow system can
> support these activities, they are largely code-based and require
> modification and intrinsic knowledge of the Workflow event system.
> It would be nice to simplify this for the users and allow task.xml,
> conditions.xml and *.workflow.xml files (or explicit WorkflowRepos) to
> support this nomenclature.
> I'll attach a proposed spec of what the updated XML files would look like
> using this paradigm. Then my goal is to take the existing workflow system and
> augment it with this functionality.
