[Proposal] Taverna workflow
I hereby present the Apache Incubator proposal for the project Taverna. Also available in rich text in the Taverna wiki (with more hyperlinks!): http://dev.mygrid.org.uk/wiki/display/developer/Taverna+incubator+proposal (Could someone grant me access to edit the Incubator wiki pages? My wiki username is soilandreyes) # Abstract Taverna is an open source and domain-independent suite of tools used to design and execute data-driven workflows. # Proposal The Taverna suite includes: * Taverna Workbench, a Java-based desktop application for graphically composing, editing and executing workflows of distributed web services and local tools * Taverna Commandline Tool which allows repeated execution of parameterized workflow definitions * Taverna Server provides a REST and SOAP API for executing workflows * Taverna Player is a Ruby-based web interface towards the Server, providing a high-level view of workflow executions and their results, and allows further integrations with Ruby on Rails applications. Taverna can browse and combine different service types, allowing workflows to integrate steps of arbitrary REST and SOAP web services with command line tools (local and SSH), scripts (Beanshell, R, Jython) and finally visualize the results. The goal of the Taverna suite is to help researchers to access distributed datasets and processing capabilities by the construction of pipelines, and also to simplify the execution of these pipelines in various environments. The Taverna suite of products is already successful and in wide-use across different domains. The software is currently licensed as LGPL 2.1, with copyright owned by University of Manchester. External contributors have all signed Apache-like CLAs. # Background Taverna workflows coordinate inputs and outputs between computational processes and Web Services. The workflow is designed in a graphical interface which shows the workflow as a series of boxes and arrows; representing processes and their data connections. The different processes in a workflow can be command line tools, REST and WSDL Web Services; which are used for combining steps such as data acquisition, filtering, cleaning, integrating, analysis and visualization. Taverna calls these processes services, as they generally are provided by remote (third-party) servers. These kind of computational workflows, also known as pipelines and dataflows, focus on the movement of data rather than the execution order of the underlying processes. Features such as implicit iterations (where an input list of values causes multiple process executions) and parallel invocations (independent processes are executed as soon as their data is available) are intrinsic to a dataflow system, not requiring any particular constructs by the workflow designer. As a visual programming environment, workflows aids collaboration and reuse of workflows. At the highest level, a workflow represents the conceptual level of an analysis, allowing understanding, discussion and communication of the overall analysis protocol. More detail can be revealed and modified for individual steps. At the individual process level, the workflow defines execution specifics such as operations, parameters and command line tools. Sharing of the workflow definitions allows re-use and re-purposing of the computational analysis. During workflow execution, provenance can be collected from every step, allowing deep inspection of intermediate values for the purpose of debugging and validation. # Rationale There is a strong need to lower the barrier of entry to datasets and computational resources widely available on the Internet, to increase their use by researchers who understand the computational steps needed to produce their results, but who are not necessarily expert programmers. Taverna has already shown its success and popularity in a wide range of scientific disciplines. # Initial Goals * Transition mailing lists to Apache (keep existing subscribers, but invite more) * Taverna developer workshop (2014-10-30) * Prepare git repositories for move: * Update headers/metadata to indicate Apache License 2.0 * Restructure git repositories * Rename Maven groupIds to org.apache.taverna.* * Rename packages to org.apache.taverna.* * Move Github repositories to Apache git * Automated builds in Apache's Jenkins * Update to latest releases of Apache dependencies * Propose updated release testing procedure under Apache * Moved Website and documentation We intend to only release the current development version Taverna 3.x http://www.taverna.org.uk/developers/work-in-progress/taverna-3/ under the Apache umbrella (). 3.0 is not yet officially released - however the Taverna 3.0 Command Line can be released almost as-is after migration. The Taverna 3.0 Server is at beta quality, while the Taverna 3.0 Workbench is at alpha stage and would need to be stabilized to an initial beta release. * Before first release: Maven Central releases of

Re: [Proposal] Taverna workflow
Thanks, Stian, for submitting a well-developed proposal and for your interest in Apache. I have a few questions: * Can you say more about why you want to take Taverna to the ASF? * What is your strategy for increasing the diversity of your committer base? * Do you have any third party dependencies in the Taverna core that have incompatible licenses (like GPL)? * Would you like developer-contributed plugins to be covered within a future Apache Taverna project? My main goal here is to give the Incubator community a little more background and foster discussion, which will be useful in attracting mentors, so don't worry about right or wrong answers.

My wiki username is soilandreyes) # Abstract Taverna is an open source and domain-independent suite of tools used to design and execute data-driven workflows. # Proposal The Taverna suite includes: * Taverna Workbench, a Java-based desktop application for graphically composing, editing and executing workflows of distributed web services and local tools * Taverna Commandline Tool which allows repeated execution of parameterized workflow definitions * Taverna Server provides a REST and SOAP API for executing workflows * Taverna Player is a Ruby-based web interface towards the Server, providing a high-level view of workflow executions and their results, and allows further integrations with Ruby on Rails applications. Taverna can browse and combine different service types, allowing workflows to integrate steps of arbitrary REST and SOAP web services with command line tools (local and SSH), scripts (Beanshell, R, Jython) and finally visualize the results. The goal of the Taverna suite is to help researchers to access distributed datasets and processing capabilities by the construction of pipelines, and also to simplify the execution of these pipelines in various environments. The Taverna suite of products is already successful and in wide-use across different domains. The software is currently licensed as LGPL 2.1, with copyright owned by University of Manchester. External contributors have all signed Apache-like CLAs. # Background Taverna workflows coordinate inputs and outputs between computational processes and Web Services. The workflow is designed in a graphical interface which shows the workflow as a series of boxes and arrows; representing processes and their data connections. The different processes in a workflow can be command line tools, REST and WSDL Web Services; which are used for combining steps such as data acquisition, filtering, cleaning, integrating, analysis and visualization. Taverna calls these processes services, as they generally are provided by remote (third-party) servers. These kind of computational workflows, also known as pipelines and dataflows, focus on the movement of data rather than the execution order of the underlying processes. Features such as implicit iterations (where an input list of values causes multiple process executions) and parallel invocations (independent processes are executed as soon as their data is available) are intrinsic to a dataflow system, not requiring any particular constructs by the workflow designer. As a visual programming environment, workflows aids collaboration and reuse of workflows. At the highest level, a workflow represents the conceptual level of an analysis, allowing understanding, discussion and communication of the overall analysis protocol. More detail can be revealed and modified for individual steps. At the individual process level, the workflow defines execution specifics such as operations, parameters and command line tools. Sharing of the workflow definitions allows re-use and re-purposing of the computational analysis. During workflow execution, provenance can be collected from every step, allowing deep inspection of intermediate values for the purpose of debugging and validation. # Rationale There is a strong need to lower the barrier of entry to datasets and computational resources widely available on the Internet, to increase their use by researchers who understand the computational steps needed to produce their results, but who are not necessarily expert programmers. Taverna has already shown its success and popularity in a wide range of scientific disciplines. # Initial Goals * Transition mailing lists to Apache (keep existing subscribers, but invite more) * Taverna developer workshop (2014-10-30) * Prepare git repositories for move: * Update headers/metadata to indicate Apache License 2.0 * Restructure git repositories * Rename Maven groupIds to org.apache.taverna.* * Rename packages to
