 ## Short Description
 
 Autosubmit is a lightweight workflow manager designed to meet the specific needs of climate research. Unlike other workflow solutions in the domain, it integrates the capabilities of an experiment manager, workflow orchestrator and monitor in a self-contained application. Therefore, it is able to create, manage and monitor complex workflows involving different substeps, such as scientific computational experiments. These workflows may involve multiple computing systems of different kinds, including heterogeneous platforms, for their completion. Autosubmit can orchestrate all the tasks by managing their dependencies, interfacing with all the platforms involved, and handling eventual errors.
