Hi,

In Taverna 2.2 that will be out in the next 2 weeks - you will be able 
to pause/resume and cancel a workflow run. However, all the changes you 
do to an opened workflow (like adding/deleting/modifying components 
including nested workflows) will not affect the current run of that 
workflow. This is because before Taverna executes a workflow - a copy of 
the original workflow is created and that copy is executed so that you 
can modify your original workflow while it is running and it does not 
affect the run.

So, if you want to change something in the workflow that is running - 
you can freely do that while it is running (that won't affect the run). 
You can also save the modified workflow while it is running. Then, once 
you are happy with your modifications, you can just simply run that 
workflow again. If you feel that your old run is not doing what it 
should - you can simply cancel that execution before you start your 
modifications and delete it from previous runs. However, pausing and 
resuming workflow will simply continue to execute the old workflow and 
all the modifications you've done to the original workflow in the 
meantime will not be picked unless you start a new run.

Hope this helps,
Alex
