v1.3

The WfCommons project is an open source framework that provides a collection of structured methods and techniques, implemented as part of usable tools, for analyzing workflow instances and producing synthetic, yet realistic, workflow instances.

The WfCommons project uses a common format, WfFormat, for representing collected workflow instances and generated synthetic workflows instances. Workflow simulators and simulation frameworks that support WfFormat can then use both types of instances interchangeably. WfFormat uses a JSON specification. This release also provides a Python-based JSON schema validator for verifying the syntax of JSON trace files, as well as their semantics, e.g., whether all files and task dependencies are consistent.
