With an increasing number of scientific workflows published at online repositories and publicly accessible through the Web, reuse and repurposing of best practices is of core importance when a novel scientific workflow is required to be developed for satisfying the requirement of scientists. To address this challenge, this article proposes an approach for identifying and recommending workflows for reference. Specifically, a scientific workflow is represented as a layer hierarchy, which specifies hierarchical relations between this workflow, its sub-workflows, and activities. Semantic similarity is calculated between layer hierarchies of workflows. A graph-skeleton based clustering technique is adopted for grouping layer hierarchies into clusters. Barycenters in each cluster are identified, which refer to core workflows in this cluster, for facilitating cluster identification and workflow ranking and recommendation. Experimental evaluation shows that our technique is efficient and accurate on ranking and recommending appropriate clusters and workflows.
