Federated NWP Workflow Tools

Chiltepin

Overview

This repository is a collection of tools and demonstrations used to explore and test various technologies for implementing exascale scientific workflows. This collection of resources is not intended for production use, and is for research purposes only.

Chiltepin provides Python decorators and utilities for building scientific workflows that can execute on distributed computing resources using Parsl, Globus services, and Academy Agents. It supports both traditional task-based workflows and stateful agent-based workflows for long-running, autonomous computations.

Platform Support

Chiltepin is developed and tested on Linux:

• ✅ Linux: Full support for all features
• 🍎 macOS: Supported for task submission and data transfer (endpoint management not available)
• ❌ Windows: Native execution not supported; Chiltepin's use of Parsl relies on fork-based multiprocessing
• 🐳 Docker: Full Linux-based test suite and feature support available via container on all platforms
