FOCUS
-----

The workshop aims at clarifying the role of workflow technology in 
accelerating science, by providing effective means to automate data 
management tasks on a large scale. Thus, it sits at the intersection 
between process management for scientific applications, and data management.

A number of innovative, but uncoordinated, efforts in data-centric 
workflows have made their mark on the scientific and business world in 
recent years. The goal of this workshop is to use these efforts to start 
bringing together a research community around the theoretical 
foundations,  technology development,  and domain applications of 
workflow systems in the context of large-scale data management for science.

In this spirit, we seek contributions from both researchers and 
practitioners on all aspects of data and process management that 
contribute towards this goal. More specifically, relevant topics 
include, but are not limited to, the following:

- Role of workfows in data analytics, mining and statistics
- Performance estimation and optimization of workflow execution
- Scalability of workflow-based solutions on very large data sets
- Role of metadata in static profiling of dataflows
- Impact of, and new requirements for, workflow technology on open science
- Workflow warehousing, indexing, searching, and mining
- Workflows for service orchestration
- Mapping workflows to cloud computing environments
- In-database workflow execution
- User interaction models for complex eScience: visibility vs. 
commoditization
- Workflow repurposing and reuse
- Privacy models for data-centric workflows
- Workflow semantics
- Workflows as invisible middleware
- Workflows in Service-oriented life sciences
- Component-based business intelligence
- Sensor data processing
- Data integration and provenance tracking in medical research
