Swift is a data-flow oriented coarse grained scripting language that supports dataset typing and mapping, dataset iteration, conditional branching, and procedural composition.
Swift programs (or workflows) are written in a language called
Swift.
Swift scripts are primarily concerned with processing (possibly large) collections of data files, by invoking programs to do that processing. Swift handles execution of such programs on remote sites by choosing sites, handling the staging of input and output files to and from the chosen sites and remote execution of programs."

"Swift/T is a completely new implementation of the Swift language for high-performance computing. In this implementation, the Swift script is translated into an MPI program that uses the Turbine (hence, /T) and ADLB runtime libraries for highly scalable dataflow processing over MPI, without single-node bottlenecks.
Swift is a naturally concurrent language with C-like syntax. It is primarily used to manage calls to leaf tasks- external functions written in C, C++, Fortran, Python, R, Tcl, Julia, Qt Script, or executable programs. The Swift language coordinates the distribution of data to these tasks and schedules them for concurrent execution across the nodes of a large system."
