Taverna Description

Free application for designing and executing workflows Taverna allows users to integrate many different software tools, including web services, such as those provided by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, The European Bioinformatics Institute, the DNA Databank of Japan (DDBJ), SoapLab, BioMOBY and EMBOSS.The Taverna Workbench provides you with a desktop enactment engine and authoring environment for scientific workflows expressed in Scufl (Simple Conceptual Unified Flow language). The Taverna enactment engine is also available separately, and other Scufl enactors are available including Moteur.The myExperiment social web site supports finding and sharing of workflows and has special support for Scufl workflows. The Taverna workbench, myExperiment and associated components are produced by the myGrid consortium. Requirements: · Java 5 or later What's New in This Release: · The workflow explorer has been moved from the right-hand side of · Taverna workbench to below the service panel. · The service panel replaces the activity palette of Taverna 2 · workbench. · It has a simplified and more familiar interface. · The services are now organized so that Service templates i.e. services · that always require configuration such as Beanshell, are grouped · together. · The tree used to display the services is more natural, with · service-type specific organization within the branches. · The service panel allows filtered search of services. Type in text to · search on and the service panel will just show the matching services. · Note that it may match on attributes of the services that are not · immediately visibile. · The service panel automatically saves the set of service providers · that are loaded. This means that if you add a new WSDL then it will · be there the next time you start Taverna. · Service providers can be removed from the service panel. · You can now add services to the current workflow by right-clicking on · the service in the service panel. You can still drag-and-drop the · service into either the workflow explorer or the workflow diagram. · If the service that you add needs to be configured, then the · configuration panel for that type of service will automatically · pop-up. · You can now use all of the necessary workflow creation and editing · functions from within the workflow explorer. Merges and control links · (for "run after" specification) are now shown in the workflow · explorer. · Merges can now be configured to control the order in which the data · arriving is combined. · Objects in the workflow explorer and workflow diagram can be · configured by right-clicking on them. · Data link creation is more intelligent so that it does not allow the · creation of loops. · The workflow diagram can now be scrolled using standard scrollbars. · The run dialog has been changed so that a graphical representation of · the workflow and information about the ports, including example values · is shown. The mechanism for entering input values for ports has been · made more user-friendly. · The dialog "remembers" the values used for previous runs of the · workflow. · The results view now shows when all the data has arrived at an output · (the port turns grey) and also gives an indication of whether the · workflow is still running. · The number of iterations of a service during the run is shown in the · top right of the service. · If any calls to a service fail, then the service is shown in red and · the number of failures shown in the bottom right of the service. · Intermediate results of a service can be examined by clicking on the · service. The input and output values for each iteration of the · service can be examined. The results for several services can be · viewed at the same time (in separate windows). · You can zoom and scroll within the monitored view of the workflow run. · As this is a beta, there are some issues which will be fixed for the · Taverna 2.1 release. These are detailed in known-issues.txt
