Information resides on different:
 Granularity levels (individual records vs. massive repositories)
 Abstraction levels (models ranging from entire systems to
compound patterns)
 Domain levels (clinical, sequence, instrument…)
Researchers
 Grouped in Virtual Organizations (VOs)
 Working on the Grid
 Need to communicate across physical and scientific/cultural
barriers
Tools
 Legacy, well-established in the process
 Novel, essential to innovation
 In need of a consistent infrastructure to connect the two
groups

InforSense Workflow Life Cycle
 Constructing a ubiquitous workflow : by
scientists
 Integrate your information
resources/software applications crossdomain
 Support innovation and capture the best
practice of your scientific research
 Warehousing workflows: for scientists
 Manage discovery processes in your
organisation
 Construct an enterprise process
knowledge bank
 Deployment workflow: to scientists
 Turn your workflows into reusable
applications
 Turn every scientist into a solution
builder
Workflow Creation, Integration, and Deployment
1 Select:
Data Sources
Data Mining / Statistics
Data Processing / Transformation
3rd Party applications (e.g.Haploview)
Interactive data visualization / reporting
2 Connect:
Connect data and components in GUI
Workflow describes complex
data processing and analysis
3 Execute:
“In database” processing & analytics
“Cluster / Grid” execution
4 Deploy:
Define parameters of workflow to expose
Publish as: portlet, web application,
SOAP service, command line app
Biology to Chemistry

Novel sequences are compared to known protein structures

The resulting set of ligands on these matching structures is used to search
small molecule databases for similar compounds

Compounds are then analyzed using KDE tools such as PCA and clustering
to provide a diverse, representative subset for further assays
Navigating KEGG pathways

Gene names from EMBL are used to query KEGG via their
Webservice API for appropriate pathways

Further Webservice API calls allow navigation of the data to find:

Pathway compounds

Other genes in the pathways

Visualization of query genes on their pathways
cDNA sequence annotation and alignment

A novel cDNA is annotated using EMBOSS tools, and a
BLAST similarity search perfomed against human
proteins

Annotations used to aid identification of predicted
proteins derived from the cDNA
Ortholog analysis using BLAST

Sequence libraries from 2 organisms are cross-compared
using BLAST to determine the best bi-directional
matches of sufficient quality
Clustering of Affymetrix data with R

Native Affymetrix CEL files are loaded using R/Bioconductor

Differentially expressed genes calculated using KDE statistical nodes

The resulting list of genes is then clustered using HCLUST in R
Microarray analysis using text mining



Microarray data normalized in KDE
Upregulated genes annotated from Pubmed to obtain a set of related
scientific papers
Text mining used to mine the paper collection and extract information most
relevant to the researcher

Integrative support
 Information:
 Data models to support individual domains (sequences, NMR
profiles…) and methods to map them into generic analysis (tables,
text)
 Annotation databases integrated through Web Service APIs
 Researchers
 Sharing of work and knowledge through reusable workflow
components
 Aim for minimum technical overhead when linking new resources
 Tools
 Focus on integration methods rather than one-off tool linkage
 Researchers able to link to standard tools without the need for an
IT specialist
 Databases accessed through aggregators (SRS, BioMart…)
