It can be described as a two-faced tool that (i) has been designed to support a wide range of workflows within the genebank and also (ii) to provide internal users with access to the GBIS database for curating genebank data outside a workflow context.
A range of popular workflow suites are available to support analyses in computational biology.
The experimental results indicate that the proposed architecture can deliver scalable performance and effectively maintain stable request response time under a wide range of incoming workflow request workloads.
Using a modular approach allowed the working group to accommodate the broad range of extant workflow implementations within the collections community and to assemble orderly, comprehensive task lists as foundations from which institutionally specific workflows could be created.
To simulate a typical biological experiment and evaluate the dynamic range of the workflow, light labeled cells were treated with 100 ng/mL EGF for 5 min, and heavy labeled cells were left untreated.
In assessing compatibility, panelists were instructed to consider a range of practice workflows into which the CDS intervention might be inserted including their own workflows, those of ancillary staff, and those that might be common in other practice settings.
We are confident that our methodology can be applied to a wide range of bioinformatics workflows sharing similar characteristics with our use case study.
Its intuitive nature and wide range of available workflows make it an effective tool for molecular biology research.
The utility based approach has been applied to a range of applications, from workflow scheduling on grids [8] to data center cooling [9], and here is applied to adaptive VM placement.
In particular, more work is needed to ensure that the interface is flexible enough to accommodate a broad range of variation in workflow patterns and to ensure intervention protocols are acceptable and feasible to providers.
