Release BEEWorkflowManager, BEETaskManager, and client software. The BEEWorkflowManager daemon runs on the HPC cluster login node. It accepts workflows submitted by the BEE client. These workflows are specified using the Common Workflow Language (CWL) standard. The BEEWorkflowManager loads workflows into the Neo4j graph database to create the workflow directed acyclic graph (DAG), and submits the workflow tasks to the BEETaskManager for execution. The BEEWorkflowManager records the state of the workflow and its tasks, and communicates this state to the BEE client. The BEEWorkflowManager will start, pause, and cancel a running workflow and its tasks at the command of the BEE client. The BEETaskManager daemon runs on the HPC cluster login node. It accepts tasks from the BEEWorkflowManager, turns those tasks into HPC resource manager jobs (e.g. a slurm job script), and submits the job to the cluster resource manager. The BEETaskManager then tracks the status of the job (pending, running, complete) and updates the BEEWorkflowManager. The BEETaskManager will also cancel a queued or running job when commanded to do so by the BEEWorkflowManager. The first release of the BEETaskManager will support the Slurm resource manager and the Charliecloud linux container runtime.
