NIST is organizing a virtual workshop in December around FAIR standards for containerized software for large-scale bioimage analysis: https://www.nist.gov/news-events/events/2023/12/2nd-international-workshop-fair-containerized-computational-software I attended the first workshop they hosted in 2019 and found it to be a very interesting discussion. They published a report at the end which nicely catalogs the complexity in this space. Actually I think it was right after that workshop that I started to look at workflow languages again and ended up discovering Nextflow 😁
