Workflow showcase

Start from a complete, runnable workflow instead of assembling isolated payloads. Every showcase includes the workflow graph, infrastructure inputs, planning data, execution request, expected evidence, and two equivalent paths: AkôFlow Desktop and API.

BeginnerSimGridTime + cost

Edge to cloud simulation

A deterministic three-stage workflow that exposes computation, transfer time, placement, and cost in SimGrid.

prepare→process→Kubernetes

IntermediateKubernetesReal run

Kubernetes real execution

A two-stage container workflow dispatched to a local Kind cluster with persistent data and observable activity logs.

BeginnerLocalReal run

Local direct execution

A single trusted host-local command that creates an observable output artifact on the daemon host.

IntermediateSLURMFixture

SLURM batch fixture

A disposable local check of AkôFlow's batch-script, status-sentinel, and artifact-evidence path.

NetworkSimGridContention

30 GB network fan-out

A data-intensive workflow for studying parallel transfers, shared bandwidth, and fan-in across three machines.

ParallelSimGridCapacity

100 activities on 50 cores

A reproducible parallel workload for checking core-level placement, queueing, and scheduler scalability.

How to use a showcase

1. Choose a scenario and download its checked-in YAML files.
2. Follow the Desktop tab to import and inspect each object visually, or the API tab to submit the same files.
3. Generate or register a plan, start the run, and wait for a terminal status.
4. Compare planned and observed makespan, cost, activity placement, transfers, and provenance.

The files are the source of truth. Walkthroughs refer to them directly so the graphical path and API path exercise the same model.

Example file index

Scenario	Files	What it demonstrates
Edge–cloud simulation	examples/simulation	Complete environment, topology, workflow, plan, and execution request
30 GB fan-out	examples/simulation/30gb-fanout	Shared links, parallel transfers, and fan-in
50-core fan-out	examples/simulation/50core-fanout	Per-core placement and parallel capacity
Kubernetes with Kind	examples/kind	Local real execution, namespace access, and requests
Local direct	examples/local/direct-hello	A trusted host-local command and observed filesystem artifact
SLURM batch fixture	examples/slurm/local-fixture	Reproducible local validation of the SLURM adapter's batch submission and artifact path
Remote connections	examples/connections	SSH-based PlaFRIM, Santos Dumont, and Kind connections

Infrastructure configuration references

These files model infrastructure inputs, but are not end-to-end showcases. In particular, they do not include a portable cluster, a submitted run, or observed execution evidence.

Infrastructure	Files	Scope and next step
SLURM cluster	examples/slurm	A catalog for a partition, login node, shared storage, and runtime bindings. Pair it with an approved SLURM cluster and follow Connect an HPC and SLURM cluster before submitting a site-approved probe. The separate SLURM batch fixture validates only the local adapter path.
