Abstract

Scientists using the high-throughput computing (HTC) paradigm for scientific discovery rely on complex software systems and heterogeneous architectures that must deliver robust science (i.e., ensuring performance scalability in space and time; trust in technology, people, and infrastructures; and reproducible or confirmable research). Developers must overcome a variety of obstacles to pursue workflow interoperability, identify tools and libraries for robust science, port codes across different architectures, and establish trust in non-deterministic results. This poster presents recommendations to build a roadmap to overcome these challenges and enable robust science for HTC applications and workflows. The findings were collected from an international community of software developers during a Virtual World Cafe in May 2021.
