+    <h1 class="title">Airavata Workflow Suite</h1>
+    <p>Airavata XBaya workflow system provides a programming model that allows the scientist to program experiments using 
+service-oriented architecture that would abstract the complexities of the underlying middleware. Airavata XBaya provides
+interfaces for composition, execution and monitoring of the workflows as illustrated in the following Figure. Airavata
+XBaya consist of convenient GUI interface for workflow composition, workflow enactment engine/interface for workflow
+enactment and workflow monitoring module.</p>
+<p><img alt="Airavata Workflow Suite" src="/airavata/architecture/workflow-suite.png" title="Airavata Workflow Suite" /></p>
+<h2 id="workflow-composition">Workflow Composition</h2>
+<p>Airavata XBaya by design decouples composition and monitoring from the orchestration of the workflow although it does
+provide an embedded workflow enactment engine integrated with the workbench. As a scientific workflow suite XBaya is
+often expected to run long running computations thus it often delegates the workflow execution to a persistent
+orchestration engine and XBaya workbench can monitor the progress of the workflow asynchronously. The workbench provides
+a convenient drag and drop GUI for SOA based service composition along with other functionalities like service
+discovery, registry lookup and workflow experiment management.</p>
+<h2 id="workflow-orchestration">Workflow orchestration</h2>
+<p>XBaya provides a unique pluggable architecture for selecting the orchestration engine. When a user composes a workflow
+using XBaya workbench it builds an abstract Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) which is independent of any workflow runtime.
+There are pluggable compiler modules that are capable of producing workflow execution scripts for target runtimes. The
+above Figure illustrated how the DAG can compiled into different runtimes. Currently XBaya supports BPEL 2.0 and Apache
+ODE; SCUFL and Taverna; DAGMAN and Pegasus; Jython scripts and XBaya Interpreter Service.</p>
+<p>Each of these workflow runtimes have their own strengths, for example, Apache ODE is a robust SOA based workflow
+orchestration engine well suited for long running applications. Pegasus workflow system is well suited for parametric
+sweeps whereas XBaya Interpreter engine is strong in dynamic and user interactive workflow execution. It is also capable
+of generating a Jython script that can be executed in any Jython runtime independent of any of the workflow
+infrastructure.</p>
+<h2 id="workflow-interpreter">Workflow interpreter</h2>
+<p>XBaya provides a inbuilt workflow enactment engine that provides extremely dynamic and interactive workflow execution. 
+As the name suggests the workflow interpreter provides an interpreted workflow execution framework rather than the
+compiled workflow execution environments. In this context the interpreted workflow means at that execution framework
+executed tasks in the XBaya DAG as and when the tasks become runnable. Once the user composes the workflow and launches
+the workflow the workflow interpreter will start executing the workflow DAG. Topological sort of the DAG provides
+execution ordering of the tasks which allow the identification of the initial ready task set and incrementally adding
+new tasks to the ready list as previous tasks finish execution. What is unique about this type of execution model is it
+allows the user to pause the execution of the workflow as necessary and update the DAG’s execution states or even the
+DAG itself and resume execution and the changes are immediately picked up by the workflow interpreter.</p>
+<p>Workflow interpreter can be used as an embedded workflow enactment engine within XBaya GUI or as an interpreter service
+that may run as a persistent service. The functionality provided by the workflow interpreter allows fine gain control
+over the workflow execution which translates into following
+functionalities.
+<em> Static workflow interactions
+</em> Dynamic change workflow inputs, workflow rerun.
+<em> Stop, pause, resume execution of the workflow. Pause workflow at a particular (debug) point
+</em> Dynamic change in point of execution, workflow smart rerun.
+<em> Fault handling and exception models  <br />
+</em> Dynamic workflow interactions
+<em> Reconfiguration of workflow activity
+</em> Dynamic addition of activities to the DAG.
+* Dynamic remove or replace of activity to the DAG.</p>
+<h2 id="workflow-monitoring">Workflow monitoring:</h2>
+<p>XBaya workbench allows the user to monitor the progress of the workflow in real-time. Monitoring includes the services
+which are currently executing, those that are done. It also provides state of the job submissions to the batch job
+queues and status of the data transfer. Workflow monitoring in XBaya workbench work in two modes; synchronous mode and
+asynchronous mode. The synchronous mode only applies when XBaya interpreter runs embedded in the workbench. This allows
+the execution engine to be aware of which task are ready, running, finished and waiting and thus accordingly update the
+DAG execution state. But when the workflow execution is delegated to a persistent service like Apache ODE serve or XBaya
+interpreter service, it is necessary to have asynchronous monitoring. This is achieved using the WS-Eventing based
+notification messages published by different components of the workflow  system. If a user launches a workflow instance
+a unique topic will be associated with that instance and all the workflow components like workflow engine, Factory
+service will publish status notification about the workflow to the event bus using the topic assigned to the workflow
+instance. This asynchronous monitoring is truly asynchronous where the user can launch the workflow, start monitoring,
+loose internet connectivity and once reconnected the XBaya workbench will bring back the monitoring to the current
+execution state of the workflow.</p>

+    <h1 class="title">WS-Messenger System</h1>
+    <p>Airavata WS-Messenger is a Web Services-based Messaging System for Service-Oriented Computing and is
+an implementation of <a href="http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/wsn/">WS-Notification</a> and <a href="http://www.w3.org/Submission/WS-Eventing/">WS-Eventing</a> specifications. The message format 
+can be automatically converted between the two specifications. The subscription request type
+(Ws-Notification or WS-Eventing) for a listener determines the message format that the notification 
+consumer will receive. If WS-Notification subscription request is received by the broker, it will 
+send WS-Notification messages to the listener. Similarly, if WS-Eventing subscription is received 
+by the broker, the broker will produce WS-Eventing messages for that listener. The publisher can 
+publish messages in either format. The consumers will recieve messages in the format they subscribed 
+irrespective of the format the message is published.</p>
+<p>The WS-Messenger guarantees scalable, reliable and efficient message delivery. WS-Messenger contains 
+sub-components of Message broker, Message box and WS-Messenger client libraries. 
+WS-Messenger acts like the nervous system within Airavata infrastructure but can very well be integrated 
+into any WS-Eventing/WS-Notification standard compliant infrastructures. The Messenger is deployed as a 
+Axis2 service providing inherent support for different transports including HTTP 1.0, HTTP 1.1 and JMS. 
+Custom transport protocols can be plugged in using the Axis2 framework's transport plug-ins. 
+WS-Messenger is integrated with Mysql and Apache Derby database implementations. 
+The embedded Derby database is deployed within the same Java process. The system also supports persistent 
+subscriptions and notifications which will tolerate failures and restarts of the application server. </p>
+<p>The following figure illustrates the high level overview of the WS-Messenger 
+<img alt="WS Messenger Overview" src="/airavata/architecture/messenger-overview.png" title="WS Messenger Overview" /></p>
+<h2 id="ws-messenger-modules">WS-Messenger Modules</h2>
+<ol>
+<li>Message Broker: The broker handles filtering/delivering messages to even sinks and subscription management.
+WS-Messenger support filtering messages based on XPath expression and topic expression. Message broker is implemented on
+Web services specifications and provide the mediation between WS-Eventing Specification and WS-Notification Specifications.
+WS-Eventing and WS-Notification specifications are two competing specifications defining the interfaces for Web services-based
+publish/subscribe systems.  The Web Services interfaces and the notification message formats defined in these two
+specifications are fundamentally different. WS-Messenger provides a mediation approach facilitating interoperability with supported services.
+WS-Messenger can automatically convert the notification message formats to makes sure that the message “on the wire” can be understood by the
+event consumers. For example, a WS-Notification  consumer can receive notification messages published by a WS-Eventing publisher and vice versa. 
+The event consumer type is determined by the subscription request message type. Here we assume that the subscribers and the event 
+consumers use the same specification. This is a valid assumption for most cases since the subscribers needs to know the location of the event consumers.
+The message delivering schema is implemented by consumer blacklisting to minimize the overhead of message delivering failures. 
+Message delivering performance has been implemented with a parallel message delivering sub system. The blocking I/O overhead is reduced 
+configuring the NIO transport. WS-Messenger uses the NIO transport provided by Apache Synapse project to enable non-blocking I/O in Axis2. </li>
+<li>Message Box: WS-Messenger decouples the consumer tolerating network failures and firewalls. 
+The Message box acts like an intermediate notification storage between broker and the event sink. Users can simply create a message box and 
+provide the message box URL as the event sink URL during the subscription. When messages are publishing to message broker notifications will 
+send to the message box and it stores the incoming messages in to database or keep them in memory based on the WS-Messenger configuration. 
+Message box Service has operations  to pull the messages from the message box so whenever actual event sink is ready to pull the messages out 
+from message box they simply have to invoke the message Pulling API and take the notifications. When the message box is no longer needed, 
+the subscriber can send another web service request to destroy the message box.This is a useful feature in a scenario where event source cannot 
+send notifications directly to even sink running behind the firewall. This deployment is a very common firewall configuration between DMZ and green zone 
+in an enterprise deployment.provide a web service interface for subscribers behind the firewalls.</li>
+</ol>
+<h2 id="airavata-usage-of-the-ws-messenger">Airavata Usage of the WS-Messenger</h2>
+<p>Within Airavata, the WS-Messenger is used for user and system communications between GFac, XBaya and Workflow Intepreter. 
+XBaya in monitoring mode subscribes to a pre-specified topic to which Workflow Engine and GFac are publishing status notifications. 
+XBaya is instrumented to react to the messages to illustrate workflow progress by means of color coding of tasks being executed.</p>
+<p>The following steps illustrates the usage in detail:
+<em> XBaya creates a message Box, subscribes to it and then invokes a workflow, with the created message box EPR passed in context.<br />
+</em> Then XBaya sends a subscription request to WS-Messenger with a particular topic and message box URL received as the event sink. 
+<em> Then workflow notifiers in XBaya send the notifications using the same topic to the message broker.
+</em> Individual application services created by GFac are instrumented to publish detailed status and send progress to the EPR received in workflow execution context.
+* XBaya translates the messages into graphical colors and input and output extractions.</p>

+    <h1 class="title">Get Involved</h1>
+    <p>You don't need to be a software developer to contribute to 
+Apache Airavata. To be successful this project 
+requires a huge range of different skills, levels of involvement and degrees of 
+technical expertise. So, if you want to get involved in Apache Airavata, there 
+is almost certainly a role for you. </p>
+<p>We are looking for people to:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>provide feedback</li>
+<li>write or update documentation</li>
+<li>help new users</li>
+<li>recommend the project to others</li>
+<li>test the code and report bugs</li>
+<li>fix bugs and <a href="/airavata/development/submit-patch.html">submit patches</a></li>
+<li>give us feedback on required features</li>
+<li>write and update the software</li>
+<li>create artwork</li>
+<li>translate to different languages</li>
+<li>anything you can see that needs doing</li>
+</ul>
+<p>All of these contributions help to keep a project active and strengthen 
+the community. The project team and the broader community will 
+therefore welcome and encourage participation, and attempt to make it 
+as easy as possible for people to get involved. </p>
+<h2 id="mailing-lists">Mailing lists</h2>
+<p>Your first engagement with the project should be to subscribe to our
+<a href="/airavata/mailing-lists.html">mailing lists</a>.</p>
+<h2 id="decision-making">Decision Making</h2>
+<p>The most important thing about engaging with any Apache project is that everyone
+is equal. All people with an opinion are entitled to express that opinion and, where 
+appropriate, have it considered by the community.</p>
+<p>To some the idea of having to establish consensus in a large and distributed team 
+sounds inefficient and frustrating. Don't despair though, The Apache Way has a
+set of simple processes to ensure things proceed at a good pace.</p>
+<p>In ASF projects we don't like to vote. We reserve that for the few things that need 
+official approval for legal or process reasons (e.g. a release or a new committer). 
+Most of the time we work with the consensus building techniques documented below.</p>
+<h3 id="lazy-consensus">Lazy Consensus</h3>
+<p><a href="/airavata/community/governance/lazyConsensus.html">Lazy consensus</a> is the first, and possibly the most important, consensus building 
+tool we have. Essentially lazy consensus means that you don't need to get explicit
+approval to proceed, but you need to be prepared to listen if someone objects.</p>
+<h3 id="consensus-building">Consensus Building</h3>
+<p>Sometimes lazy consensus is not appropriate. In such cases it is necessary to
+make a proposal to the mailing list and discuss options. There are mechanisms
+for quickly showing your support or otherwise for a proposal and 
+<a href="/airavata/community/governance/consensusBuilding.html">building consensus</a> amongst the community.</p>
+<p>Once there is a consensus people can proceed with the work under the <a href="/airavata/community/governance/lazyConsensus.html">lazy 
+consensus</a> model.</p>
+<h3 id="voting">Voting</h3>
+<p>Occasionally a "feel" for consensus is not enough. Sometimes we need to 
+have a measurable consensus. For example, when <a href="/airavata/community/governance/voting.html">voting</a> in new committers or 
+to approve a release. </p>

+    <h1 class="title">Consensus Building</h1>
+    <p>In some cases there is no obvious path to take, or you might be a new community, 
+or a new member of an existing community. In these cases people will often 
+need to build consensus by making proposals and eliciting responses.</p>
+<p>We want to avoid unnecessary discussion and the creation of significant
+amounts of unnecessary mail that everyone in the community needs to read. 
+That is not to say that we want to avoid constructive discussion. This is 
+the lifeblood of a successful project. However, many ASF projects adopt a 
+shorthand notation for showing support, or otherwise, for a proposal.</p>
+<h2 id="expressing-support-or-otherwise">Expressing support (or otherwise)</h2>
+<p>The notation used is "+1", "-1" and "0". It's also common to see "+0" and "-0".</p>
+<p>So, what do these notations mean?</p>
+<ul>
+<li>+1 means "I agree with this and will help make it happen"</li>
+<li>+0 means "I agree with this but probably won't make it happen, so my 
+opinion is not that important"</li>
+<li>-0 means "I don't agree with this, but I'm offering no alternative so 
+my opinion is not that important"</li>
+<li>-1 means "I don't agree and I am offering an alternative that I am able 
+to help implement"</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Many people will use fractions to indicate the strength of their feelings,
+ e.g. "+0.5". Some will even indicate this is a "no brainer" with something 
+like "+1000".</p>
+<p>The important thing is that this is not an exact science. It's just a shorthand 
+way of communicating strength of feeling.</p>
+<h2 id="consensus-building-is-not-voting">Consensus Building is Not Voting</h2>
+<p>The confusing thing about this notation is that it is the same notation
+used in a formal vote. Knowing when something is a vote and when it is a 
+preference is important. It's easy to tell though, if the subject does not have 
+"[Vote]" at the start then it's just an opinion. We try not to call votes,
+consensus building is much more inclusive.</p>
+<p>The reasons for this notation being common is 
+that when someone wants to summarise a discussion thread they can mentally 
+add up the strength of feeling of the community and decide if there is consensus
+or not.</p>
+<p>Once there is a clear consensus members of the community can proceed with 
+the work under the <a href="/airavata/docs/governance/lazyConsensus.html">lazy consensus</a> model.</p>

+    <p>The concept of "Lazy Consensus" is very important in our project. Lazy
+Consensus means that when you are convinced that you know what the community
+would like to see happen you can simply assume that you already have consensus
+and get on with the work. You don't have to insist people discuss and/or
+approve your plan, and you certainly don't need to call a vote to get approval.
+You just assume you have the community's support unless someone says otherwise.</p>
+<p>We have a time machine (Subversion), this means that as long as you commit 
+(or submit patches) early and often the community has plenty of opportunity 
+to indicate disapproval. If you believe the community will support your action
+you can operate on lazy consensus as long as you are prepared to roll back 
+any work should a valid objection is raised.</p>
+<h2 id="avoiding-unnecessary-discussion">Avoiding Unnecessary Discussion</h2>
+<p>The key thing about lazy consensus is that it's easier for people to agree,
+by doing nothing, than it is to object, which requires an
+alternative to be proposed. This has two effects, firstly people are less 
+likely to object for the sake of it and secondly it cuts down on the amount 
+of unnecessary mail traffic and discussion.</p>
+<p>Lazy consensus means we can avoid waiting for a community based decision 
+before proceeding. However, it does require everyone who cares for the health
+of the project to watch what is happening, as it is happening. Objecting too 
+far down the road will cause upset, but objecting (or asking for clarification 
+of intent) early is likely to be greeted with relief that someone is watching
+and cares.</p>
+<h2 id="stating-lazy-consensus">Stating Lazy Consensus</h2>
+<p>Sometimes a member of the community will believe a specific action is the correct 
+one for the community but are not sure enough to proceed with the work under the 
+lazy consensus model. In these circumstances they can state Lazy Consensus is in 
+operation.</p>
+<p>What this means is that they make a proposal and state that they will start 
+implementing it in 72 hours unless someone objects. 72 hours is chosen because
+it accounts for different timezones and non-apache commitments.</p>
+<p>In this approach the original proposal is not insisting that there is a discussion
+around their proposal, nor are they requesting that the community explicitly 
+supports their actions. However, this differs from assuming lazy consensus 
+since it allows space and time to <a href="/openofficeorg/docs/governance/consensusBuilding.html">express support or objections</a> and corrections to 
+the proposal before work begins. </p>
+<h2 id="silence-is-consent">Silence is consent</h2>
+<p>People may choose to indicate their support for the actions taken with a +1 
+mail - quick and easy to read and reassuring for the implementer. However, 
+remember, in a lazy consensus world silence is the equivalent to support. This
+can take some time to get used to.</p>

+    <h1 class="title">Voting</h1>
+    <p>Occasionally a "feel" for consensus is not enough. Sometimes we need to have a
+measurable consensus. For example, when voting in new committers or to approve a
+release. </p>
+<h2 id="preparing-for-a-vote">Preparing for a Vote</h2>
+<p>Before calling a vote it is important to ensure that the community is given time to
+discuss the upcoming vote. This will be done by posting an email to the list
+indicating the intention to call a vote and the options available. By the time a
+vote is called there should already be <a href="http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/docs/governance/consensusBuilding.html">consensus in the community</a>. The vote 
+itself is, normally, a formality.</p>
+<h2 id="calling-a-vote">Calling a Vote</h2>
+<p>Once it is time to call the vote a mail is posted with a subject starting with
+"[VOTE]". This enables the community members to ensure they do not miss an important
+vote thread. It also indicates that this is not consensus building but a formal
+vote. The initiator is responsible for the vote. That means also to count the votes
+and present the results. Everyone has 1 vote.</p>
+<h3 id="casting-your-vote">Casting Your Vote</h3>
+<p>The notation used in voting is:</p>
+<p>+1 (means I vote positive)
+   You can say why you vote positive but it's not a must-have.</p>
+<p>0 (means I have no strong opinion, aka abstention)</p>
+<p>-1 (means I vote negative because of the following reason)
+   Yes, you must support your objection and provide an alternative course of action
+   that you are willing and able to implement (where appropriate).</p>
