Channel: Common Workflow Language

Summary: Image processing has a plenty of challenges but some of the major challenges experienced is the lack of standards for representing workflows and a lack of computational tools that can be used across groups.  The platform, Polus, focuses on using interoperable plugins for image processing. The goal is to build a platform to build workflows and to run these workflows on cloud and/or HPC resources.  We will talk about our journey towards adapting CWL as our workflow standard and what we are building on our team.
