Minutes

Meeting 1

Date: Friday, 9/6

Business:

  • Introduced the project
  • Defined project scope
  • Discussed project objectives and real world applications

Actions:

  • Fork WfInstances-browser repo
  • Run the app and populate the database
  • Add a ‘simulate’ button that opens a blank popup

Meeting 2

Date: Tuesday, 9/17

Business:

  • Discussed the tools needed to start on this project, specifically WRENCH
  • Clarified the main goal of the project and its applications

Actions:

  • Read WRENCH documentation
  • Add tooltip to simulate button
  • Add simulation description to usage popup
  • Add to the docker compose.yml so that there is a running wrench-daemon process
  • Implement a hello world simulation in the simulation popup

Meeting 3

Date: Tuesday, 9/24

Business:

  • Reviewed progress since last week's meeting
  • Discussed problem areas
  • Reviewed REST APIs

Actions:

  • Continue working on getting the hello world simulation to run

Meeting 4

Date: Tuesday, 10/1

Business:

  • Reviewed progress so far, discussed issues with the current course of action
  • Decided to change tactics and use the WRENCH Python API for the duration of the project instead of Javascript and the Rest API.
  • Began the process of developing a system to run the simulation on the back-end
    • Edited the api Dockerfile to install WRENCH and related software
    • Edited api/src/wfinstances/router.py to run WRENCH
    • Edited simulator.js to communicate with the back-end to start the simulation

Actions:

  • Create a simulation that simulates a "hello world" program using the Python API.

Meeting 5

Date: Tuesday, 10/8

Business:

  • Discussed possible improvements to make to code written in the last week
  • Discussed next steps to simulate a workflow
  • Considered possible output visualization

Actions:

  • make do_simulation take three arguments instead of just the request_body
  • Figure out where to find the id and pass it to the back end
  • Turn the json string into a file so simulation.start has valid input
  • use read_workflow_as_json to simulate a workflow

Meeting 6

Date: Tuesday, 10/15

Business:

  • Investigated issue of Alyssa's computer being unable to run the simulation
  • Discussed options for displaying the input and output of the simulation

Actions:

  • Implement a way for the user to customize the hardware specifications of the simulation
  • Display the results of the simulation

Meeting 7

Date: Tuesday, 10/22

Business:

  • Discussed different options for the UI of the hardware customization and came to a conclusion to create a table with numerical inputs and sliders
  • Discussed the upcoming presentation and possibilities for visuals

Actions:

  • Move the xml string parsing from the frontend to the backend for better encapsulation
  • Modify the UI to include a table with sliders and numerical inputs
  • Get output from the simulation including the job completed, its start time, and its end time
  • If prev. item completed, begin working on a way to visualize the output data

Meeting 8

Date: Tuesday, 10/29

Business:

  • Reviewed progress made in the last week
  • Discussed options for visualization and more clearly defined how the Gantt chart may be set up
  • Discussed options for unit testing

Actions:

  • Change id from 1 base to 0 base
  • Change prefix to be the id
  • Create a map between the bare metal compute service and the host in order to define which cluster a task is run on
  • Find a software that will provide options for visualizing the data and create a graph

Meeting 9

Date: Tuesday, 11/5

Business:

  • Attempted unsuccesfully to integrate plotly into the ui docker container and create a graph

Actions:

  • Find an alternative to plotly to create the data visualization
  • Integrate the visualization software and create a "hello world" graph
