DistillFlow simplifies the structure of Taverna workflows
Cohen-Boulakia et al from LRI (Univ. Paris Sud) have designed and implemented Distillflow. This tool is able to detect the presence of
redundancies in any workflow (e.g. several calls of the same processor with the same input data). It is then possible to obtain a distilled workflow without redundancy, thus simplified, and equivalent to the original workflow.

Welcome (DistillFlow)
Scientific workflows management systems are increasingly used to specify and manage bioinformatics experiments. Their simple programming model appeals to bioinformaticians, who can use them to easily specify complex data processing pipelines. Such a model is underpinned by a graph structure, …
