Tutorial: Building Scalable Data Intensive Applications with Makeflow and Work Queue

Lecture and tutorial for the Applied CI Concepts course at the University of Arizona, October 1 and 3, 2013.

This short course will provide a brief introduction to writing scalable applications using Makeflow and Work Queue, developed by the Cooperative Computing Lab at the University of Notre Dame. The course modules consist of a lecture that gives an overview of the software and applications, a tutorial in how to install and use the tools on FutureGrid, and a homework assignment of more challenging tasks to be completed during the week.
