Journal ArticleDOI
Taverna: a tool for building and running workflows of services
TL;DR: Taverna is an application that eases the use and integration of the growing number of molecular biology tools and databases available on the web, especially web services, to perform a range of different analyses, such as sequence analysis and genome annotation.
Journal ArticleDOI
BioCatalogue: a universal catalogue of web services for the life sciences
Jiten Bhagat,Franck Tanoh,Eric Nzuobontane,Thomas Laurent,Jerzy Orlowski,Marco Roos,Katy Wolstencroft,Sergejs Aleksejevs,Robert Stevens,Steve Pettifer,Rodrigo Lopez,Carole Goble +11 more
TL;DR: The use of Web Services to enable programmatic access to on-line bioinformatics is becoming increasingly important in the Life Sciences, but their number, distribution and the variable quality of their documentation can make their discovery and subsequent use difficult.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using OWL to model biological knowledge
Robert Stevens,Mikel Egaña Aranguren,Katy Wolstencroft,Ulrike Sattler,Nick Drummond,Matthew Horridge,Alan L. Rector +6 more
TL;DR: The disciplines of biology and bioinformatics are used to reveal the requirements of a community that both needs and uses ontologies, and what OWL-DL and its underlying description logic either cannot handle in theory or because of lack of implementation.
Journal ArticleDOI
RightField: embedding ontology annotation in spreadsheets.
Katy Wolstencroft,Stuart Owen,Matthew Horridge,Olga Krebs,Wolfgang Mueller,Jacky L. Snoep,Franco B. du Preez,Carole Goble +7 more
TL;DR: RightField is an open source application that provides a mechanism for embedding ontology annotation support for Life Science data in Excel spreadsheets, enabling scientists to consistently annotate their data with 'semantic annotation by stealth'.
Journal ArticleDOI
The my Grid ontology: bioinformatics service discovery
TL;DR: The (my)Grid ontology is one component in a larger semantic discovery framework for the identification of the highly distributed and heterogeneous bioinformatics services in the public domain and adopt a spectrum of expressivity and reasoning for different tasks in service annotation and discovery.
