+== Introduction ==
+
+The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) modelling system is composed of
+several components which need to be executed sequentially. The manual execution
+of this workflow is a time-consuming and error-prone task. Thus, it is customary to automate the process to
+some degree. However, the automation depends on the experiment to be carried
+out since the workflow depends on the experiment. This leads to the development
+of specific WRF workflow automation scripts for each experiment. But this is a time consuming task.  When the experiment requires running more
+than a single model run, the complexity increases and the workflow of the
+different runs needs to be taken into account. At this point the problems multiply: the large
+number of simulations now require a monitoring system to check their successful
+completion; failed runs need to be re-run. If failures are common, the
+re-running process also needs to be automated.  
+
+'''WRF4G''' is a flexible
+framework to manage the WRF workflow covering a wide range of
+simulation experiments composed of multiple runs with different degrees of
+dependence. The framework is layered to separate the experiment design from the
+execution environment. WRF4G includes a monitoring system and easily restarts
+broken simulations until the experiment is completed.
