WMS-benchmark

WMS-benchmark reports the code used to benchmark workflow management systems (WMS) on a bioinformatics use case, LodSeq.

The following WMS were tested:

HOW TO RUN THE BENCHMARK

See scripts/all.sh for details.

The full dataset is available here or here.

We proposed ten metrics for evaluating the efficiency of workflow management systems, they were extracted from pidstat, fg_sar and benchme output files. fg_sar uses sar, and benchme uses time to compute metrics. fg_sar and benchme are a part of fgtools toolkit and can be found in the fgtools/ directory. fg_sar requires sysstat<=11.5.2.

To know how to run the workflow management systems with a toy dataset, please see the .gitlab-ci.yml file and its execution log.
