A workflow in bioinformatics can be defined as a series of computational or data manipulation steps. To compose and execute such sequences a variety of special workflow management systems has been developed. All such systems are based on an abstract representation of how a computation proceeds in the form of a directed graph, where each node represents a task to be executed and edges represent either data flow or execution dependencies between different tasks. Each system typically provides visual front-end allowing the user to build and modify complex applications with little or no programming expertise.
