A High Level Framework to Develop and Run E-science Applications on Cloud Infrastructures

This paper presents a generic framework used todevelop and deploy high performance applications (HPC) oncloud infrastrcutures. We particularly target iterative e-scienceapplications where (i) convergence conditions and number of jobsare not known in advance, (ii) jobs are created on the fly and(iii) jobs could be persistent. We propose a framework which provides intuitive statementsenabling an easy writing of HPC e-science applications. Non-expert developers (scientific researchers) can use them toguarantee fast development and efficient deployment of their applications.
