Optimized Workflows: Towards Reproducible, Extensible and Scalable Bioinformatics Pipelines

Enthought Life Sciences | Bioinformatics Pipelines White Paper

A bioinformatics pipeline is an analysis workflow that takes input data files in unprocessed raw form through a series of transformations to produce output data in a human-interpretable form.

A bioinformatics pipeline evolves through five phases. Pipeline bioinformaticians first seek to collect and explore the essential components, including raw data, tools, and  references (Conception Phase). Then, they automate the analysis steps and investigate pipeline results (Survival Phase). Once satisfied, they move on to seek reproducibility and robustness (Stability Phase), extensibility (Success Phase), and finally scalability (Significance Phase).

Where are you in the development of the optimized bioinformatics pipeline?
