Abstract

In biological research automatic high-throughput microscopes produce large amounts of pictures in a short time interval, which are to be analysed with image processing software. This results in thousands of computing jobs at once as the images can be processed in parallel. In this paper a workflow for such high throughput computing is presented. It was implemented using UNICORE for job management and iRODS to manage the data. The workflow is fully integrated into the biologists working environment.
