Everything about Discovery Net

Discovery Net is one of the earliest examples of a scientific workflow system allowing users to coordinate the execution of remote services based on Web service and Grid Services standards. The system was designed and implemented at Imperial College London as part of the Discovery Net pilot project funded by the UK e-Science Programme. Many of the concepts pioneered by Discovery Net have been later incorporated into a variety of other scientific workflow systems. Wikipedia →
