Kepler is a free software system for designing, executing, reusing, evolving, archiving, and sharing scientific workflows.
Kepler's facilities provide process and data monitoring, provenance information, and high-speed data movement.  Workflows in general, and scientific workflows in particular, are directed graphs where the nodes represent discrete computational components, and the edges represent paths along which data and results can flow between components.
In Kepler, the nodes are called 'Actors' and the edges are called 'channels'.  Kepler includes a graphical user interface for composing workflows in a desktop environment, a runtime engine for executing workflows within the GUI and independently from a command-line, and a distributed computing option that allows workflow tasks to be distributed among compute nodes in a computer cluster or computing grid. The Kepler system principally targets the use of a workflow metaphor for organizing computational tasks that are directed towards particular scientific analysis and modeling goals.  Thus, Kepler scientific workflows generally model the flow of data from one step to another in a series of computations that achieve some scientific goal.Kepler history
The Kepler Project was created in 2002 by members of the Science Environment for Ecological Knowledge (SEEK) project  and the Scientific Data Management (SDM) project.  The project was founded by researchers at the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS) at the University of California, Santa Barbara and the San Diego Supercomputer Center at the University of California, San Diego.  Kepler extends Ptolemy II, which is a software system for  modeling, simulation, and design of concurrent, real-time, embedded systems developed at UC Berkeley.  Collaboration on Kepler quickly grew as members of various scientific disciplines realized the benefits of scientific workflows for analysis and modeling and began contributing to the system.  As of 2008, Kepler collaborators come from many science disciplines, including ecology, molecular biology, genetics, physics, chemistry, conservation science, oceanography, hydrology, library science, computer science, and others.
Kepler is a workflow orchestration engine which is used to make workflows for making work much easier, in the form of actor.
