Abstract

This book addresses the challenge of user-level workflow design with a particular focus on the bioinformatics application domain. Towards this aim, it follows a novel, constraint-driven approach to domain-specific design and management of variant-rich workflows and systematically evaluates its features based on a selection of bioinformatics application scenarios. This introductory chapter motivates the work (Section 1.1) and outlines the results and structure of this book (Sections 1.2 and 1.3, respectively).
