An Agent System for Automatic Workflows Composition in Grid Environments

: General purpose workflow management systems are often unable to match user requirements of a particular application. In many points of the workflow the user has to take decisions that can affect the structure or the parameter settings of the remaining workflow nodes. In this paper, an agent system for automatic generation of workflow for Bioinformatics application is presented, which is able to build a workflow that satisfies some user requirements and executes them in a Grid Environment.
