Summary:In one embodiment, a method of processing a computational workflow comprises receiving a description of a computational workflow. The description comprises a plurality of steps, in which each step has at least one input and at least one output, and further wherein an input from a second step depends on an output from a first step. The description is translated into a static workflow graph stored in a memory, the static workflow graph comprising a plurality of nodes having input ports and output ports, wherein dependencies between inputs and outputs are specified as edges between input ports and output ports. Information about a first set of nodes is then extracted from the static workflow graph and placed into a dynamic graph. A first actionable job is identified from the dynamic graph and executed.
