A scientific workflow construction command line

Workflows have emerged as a common tool for scientists to express their computational analyses. While there are a multitude of visual data flow editors for workflow construction, to date there are none that support the input of workflows using natural language. This work presents the design of a hybrid system that combines natural language input through a command line with a visual editor. Author Keywords Scientific workflows, command line, natural language. ACM Classification Keywords H5.m. Information interfaces and presentation (e.g., HCI)
