k-Dispatch: Enabling Cost-Optimized Biomedical Workflow Offloading
Workflow scheduling, Multi-criteria optimization, HPC, Cloud
Automated execution of computational workflows has become a critical issue in
achieving high productivity in various research and development fields. Over the
last few years, workflows have emerged as a significant abstraction of numerous
real-world processes and phenomena, including digital twins, personalized
medici-ne, and simulation-based science in general.
k-Dispatch is a novel tool designed for the efficient offloading of biomedical
workflows to remote high-performance computing clusters or cloud. In addition to
data transfers, reporting, error handling and remote computations monitoring,
k-Dispatch leverages a set of optimizations to dynamically determine suitable
execution parameters for individual tasks within workflows, aiming to meet
predefined constraints and optimization criteria. k-Dispatch has been
successfully deployed within k-Plan, an advanced modelling tool for planning
transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS) procedures.
