Workflows Community Summit 2024: Future Trends and Challenges in Scientific Workflows

The 2024 Workflows Community Summit report presents the outcomes of a three-day international gathering that brought together 109 experts from 18 countries to discuss future trends and challenges in scientific workflows. The summit focused on six key areas: time-sensitive workflows, convergence of AI and HPC workflows, multi-facility workflows, heterogeneous HPC environments, user experience and interfaces, and FAIR computational workflows. Discussions highlighted emerging challenges such as integrating AI with traditional HPC, managing workflows across diverse facilities, addressing heterogeneity in computing environments, and ensuring workflows are findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR). The report outlines recent advances, ongoing challenges, and provides recommendations for each topic area, emphasizing the need for standardization, improved interoperability, and the development of more sophisticated tools and frameworks to support the evolving landscape of scientific workflows in the era of exascale computing and AI integration.

Reproducibility Practice in High-Performance Computing: Community Survey Results

The integrity of science and engineering research is grounded in assumptions of rigor and transparency on the part of those engaging in such research. HPC community effort to strengthen rigor and transparency take the form of reproducibility efforts. In a recent survey of the SC conference community, we collected information about the SC Reproducibility Initiative activities. Here, we present the survey results in this paper. Results show that the reproducibility initiative activities have contributed to higher levels of awareness on the part of SC conference technical program participants, and hint at contributing to greater scientific impact for the published papers of the SC conference series. Stringent point-of-manuscript-submission verification is problematic for reasons we point out, as are inherent difficulties of computational reproducibility in HPC. Future efforts should better decouple the community educational goals from goals that specifically strengthen a research work's potential for long-term impact through reuse 5-10 years down the road.
