Abstract

Knowledge-based approach for composite high-performance application building and execution is proposed as a solution to solving complex computational-intensive scientific tasks using set of existing software packages. The approach is based on semantic description of existing software, used within composite application. It allows building applications according to user quality requirements and domain-specific task description. CLAVIRE platform is described as an example of successful implementation of proposed approach’s basic principles. Exploration of described software solution performance characteristics is presented.
