Re: [triquetrum-dev] Starting a doc on Triquetrum task processing
Hi Erwin,
Thanks!  This is a big help.  I've created a couple of slides about this for my talk.

In thinking about this, I see the Task-based processing work as an example of a coordination language that uses data provenance.  I added a section to the wiki:

Further Reading

Task-based processing is an example of a coordination language, which composes separate computational elements together.

Collecting and storing processing events is a form of data provenance, where data sources and processes are documented so that an experiment may be reproduced. Kepler, which also uses Ptolemy II as an execution engine, supports data provenance.

Christopher, Jay,

As this is probably the less-clear part of Triquetrum for you, I've started a wiki page on the goals and approach for the task-based processing model and related services.

You can find it at https://wiki.eclipse.org/Triquetrum/Task-based_processing

It's just a start, and I plan to expand on it during the course of this week.
But you might already find the sequence diagram helpful, at the bottom of the page,  as it shows the basic principle/structure.

You'll see it's nothing complicated, but the API does allow a clean encapsulation of technical services involved in robust processing of tasks at high throughputs + uniform handling of both synchronous/blocking vs asynchronous/non-blocking operations.
