Abstract

This paper describes an automatic web service composition framework for Phylotastic, a platform for extracting and reusing phylogenetic trees. The paper begins with a short review of Phylotastic, followed by a description of the overall architecture of the framework and its core components, such as the ontology API, the planning module, the workflow configuration module, and the execution & monitoring module. The paper provides examples of execution of Phylotastic using a scientific use case and discuss the future features of the final system.
