What are the difference between these two term? If both are using same Ruby language for development then why did they develope two different biological packages.

Extracting new science from these massive datasets will require not only faster computers; it will require smarter algorithms. We show how ideas from cutting-edge algorithms, including spectral graph theory and modern data structures, can be used to attack challenges in sequencing, medical genomics and biological networks. The NIH Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series includes weekly scientific talks by some of the top researchers in the biomedical sciences worldwide.

  • All constant are variable.
  • Copy and paste is a genetic error.
  • First solve the problem, then write the code.
  • No matter what goes wrong, it will probably look right.
  • Any simple problem can be insoluble if enough metting are held to discuss it. :P
  • Stastics is a systematic method of comming to the wrong conclusion with confidence.
  • Bug is a undocumented feature in programming languages.
  • Good biological programmer goes on summer holiday with raincoat. [because see 1]
  • Thanks god Google know python is not a python and multiplication and division are the same thing.
  • Don' be clever, complex biology will trick you.

Taverna has been created by the myGrid project and is funded through a range of organisations and projects.

    The Taverna suite is written in Java and includes the Taverna Engine(used for enacting workflows) that powers both the Taverna Workbench(the desktop client application) and the Taverna Server (which allows remote execution of workflows). Taverna is also available as a Command Line Tool for a quick execution of workflows from a terminal.
