SemanticBio: Building Conceptual Scientific Workflows over Web Services

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNBI,volume 3615))

Abstract

We introduce here the SemanticBio system, which allows expressing scientific protocols as workflows that manipulate scientific objects represented in an ontology. The different tasks are executed using web services, which address many interoperability issues, and are available as interfaces to a variety of life science resources.
