FLOSYS is an interactive web-accessible bioinformatics workflow system designed to assist biologists in multi-step data analyses. FLOSYS allows the user to create complex analysis pathways (protocols) graphically, similar to drawing a flowchart: icons representing particular bioinformatics tools are dragged and dropped onto a canvas and lines connecting those icons are drawn to specify the relationships between the tools. In addition, FLOSYS permits to select input-data, execute the protocol and store the results in a personal workspace. The three-tier architecture of FLOSYS has been implemented in Java and uses a relational database system together with new technologies for distributed and web computing such as CORBA, RMI, JSP and JDBC. The prototype of FLOSYS, which is part of the bioinformatics workbench AnaBench, is accessible on-line at http://malawimonas.bcm.umontreal.ca: 8091/anabench. The entire package is available on request to academic groups who wish to have a customized local analysis environment for research or teaching.
FLOSYS是一个交互式的、可通过网络访问的生物信息学工作流系统,旨在协助生物学家进行多步骤数据分析。FLOSYS允许用户以图形方式创建复杂的分析路径(协议),类似于绘制流程图:代表特定生物信息学工具的图标被拖放到画布上,并绘制连接这些图标的线条以指定工具之间的关系。此外,FLOSYS允许选择输入数据、执行协议并将结果存储在个人工作区中。FLOSYS的三层架构已用Java实现,并使用关系数据库系统以及用于分布式和网络计算的新技术,如CORBA、RMI、JSP和JDBC。FLOSYS的原型是生物信息学工作台AnaBench的一部分,可在http://malawimonas.bcm.umontreal.ca: 8091/anabench在线访问。整个软件包可应希望拥有用于研究或教学的定制本地分析环境的学术团体的要求提供。
