> This an extension of the work we have done in GSoC 2018. Yasas has worked on developing a workflow framework for Airavata and his mail list discussions and medium post can be found from [1] [2]. Based on his research and the another GSoC project which was done in integrating a parser framework for Airavata, we have developed a new parser framework [3] [4] [5] [6] which utilized Apache Helix task framework [7] as the task execution engine. 
> Even though this framework was specifically developed for parsers, we feel that this implementation shares a lot of common features of the workflow design which Yasas has worked on. So in this project we need to generalize parser framework into a generic workflow framework where we can create and launch workflows with any application registered in Airavata
> Student should be good at Java and distributed system concepts
> Key Expectations
>  # Refactor/ improve parser data models into workflow data models
>  # Refactor/ improve parser tables into workflow database tables
>  # Implement new helix tasks to support workflow operations mentioned in [2]
>  # Refactor/ improve parser API into a workflow level API [5]
>  # Demonstrate that we can still preserve parser workflows in newly created generic workflow engine (This will be final demo).
