We present Jobflow, a domain-agnostic Python package for writing computational workflows tailored for high-throughput computing applications. With its simple decorator-based approach, functions and class methods can be transformed into compute jobs that can be stitched together into complex workflows. Jobflow fully supports dynamic workflows where the full acyclic graph of compute jobs is not known until runtime, such as compute jobs that launch
other jobs based on the results of previous steps in the workflow. The results of all Jobflow compute jobs can be easily stored in a variety of filesystem- and cloud-based databases without the data storage process being part of the underlying workflow logic itself. Jobflow has been intentionally designed to be fully independent of the choice of workflow manager used to dispatch the calculations on remote computing resources. At the time of writing, Jobflow
workflows can be executed either locally or across distributed compute environments via an adapter to the FireWorks package, and Jobflow fully supports the integration of additional workflow execution adapters in the future.
Vibrational properties play a key role in determining the stability and thermal conductivity behaviour of materials. The quasi- harmonic approximation gives insight into the phononic properties of a compound, but in the established way, i.e. density functional theory based methods, it takes many calculation steps and consumes a lot of resources to arrive at the desired results. Machine learning (ML) trained interatomic potentials (e.g. Gaussian approximation potential, GAP) pose an alternative to the traditional computation way of phonons. We develop a Python code based workflow which combines automation tools like atomate2 with ML to ease providing interactomic potentials for (quantum chemical) computations and databases.
