Sample Workflows — Kepler Kepler comes with a number of demo workflows that can be found in your KeplerData/workflows/module/outreach/demos directory. Highlighted here are two workflows from the demos/getting-started directory. Lotka-Volterra Workflow Author: Rich Williams, NCEAS The Lotka-Volterra workflow solves the classic Lotka-Volterra predator prey dynamics model, which describes the relative populations of a predator and its prey over time using two coupled differential equations: one that describes how predator population changes (dn2/dt = -d*n2 + b*n1*n2); and one that describes how prey population changes (dn1/dt = r*n1 - a*n1*n2). The workflow is displayed above in the Kepler interface, and the major components of the workflow (actors, ports, parameters, etc) are identified with callouts. To run this workflow in Kepler, open the application, select File > Open File from the menu, and then select the 02-LotkaVolterraPredatorPrey.xml workflow from the demos/getting-started directory.

i2b2 BioVel | Taverna The Biodiversity Virtual e‑Laboratory (BioVeL) project, led by the School of Computer Science and Informatics at Cardiff University, has €5 million in funding and is seeking to provide a vital service that will improve the way scientists share, analyse and present information in the growing area of biodiversity science. The project includes the application of Taverna, myExperiment and the BioCatalogue. Biodiversity science is the study of plants and animals that inhabit our planet and the environments they live in. Amid growing concerns over the extinction rate of certain species as their natural habitats are increasingly destroyed, and with biodiversity becoming as important as climate change on the political agenda, this new research project could not be more timely. Biodiversity Virtual e‑Laboratory (BioVeL) will establish an international e-Laboratory – the first of its kind in Europe – that will allow biodiversity scientists to jointly tackle diverse research challenges.
The Power of Wireframes and Mockups by anthony on 08/17/10 at 8:16 pm In user experience design, there are a variety of deliverables that a typical UX designer generates. They can include personas, process flows, site maps, concept maps, heuristic evaluations, user scenarios, content inventories, and etc. These deliverables are the most important deliverables of all deliverables for the following reasons: They are easy for clients to understand.They realistically communicate vision and expectations.They directly relate to actual design.They are the most actionable.They create the most change & impact.They allow for easy discussion & collaborationThey track the progress being made. I’m always baffled when people spend so much time and effort focusing on the other deliverables that make little to no impact. Wireframes are like blueprints in architecture. Mockups communicate the visual aspects of the design that wireframes don’t. Design is the synthesis of form and content.

Gui Prototyping Tools Here is an alphabetical list of tools helping with drawing screen mock-ups. 10screens create and share clickable rich prototypes online, Now free as of July 2012 Allows multi-level drill-down of workflows to screens. Use VB for the demo. I think MS has some "crippled" versions for free. VB may suck in many ways, but for throwing a GUI up quick, it is hard to beat. - Try to populate tables with data in VB. You just have to be a programmer to do this. I've been doing simple prototyping in html before, to get a view of the application structure. Kudos to the WikiGnome that sortificated the list! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I've used Qt Designer (part of the LGPL Qt SDK) for prototyping desktop apps before. The following is a large spreadsheet comparing all the UX / IXD tools I could find - Everything from Wireframing to Prototyping, on the Mac, PC, and Web. RealBasic works.
Grid design basics: Grids for Web page layouts By CraigGrannell Introduction Since tables were co-opted for layout purposes, columns have become key to many Web design layouts, and this thinking continued when CSS took over from tables (at least in the minds of savvy designers) for Web-page presentation. However, other fields of layout design don’t think in arbitrary columns, they work with grids, and these form the basis for the structure of page designs. Thinking modular Grids are a template, a framework within which creativity can flourish. Instead of arbitrarily picking column sizes, grids enable you to create a common visual language throughout an entire Web site, rather than deciding things on a page-by-page basis. Creating a layout grid Unlike in print, there’s no set canvas size for a Web page. With the majority of users now having monitors capable of a resolution of 1024 x 768 or higher, the tendency for layouts is towards a width of about 950. Taking grids to the Web Purists might argue that these values aren’t semantic.

960 grid photoshop - Google Search Advertisement Creating a grid is typically one of the very first things you do when starting a design comp. After all, it provides the basic structure on which the rest of your design will lie. In this article, we’ll provide two different methods for efficiently establishing a grid. Method 1 The first method uses GuideGuide1 by Cameron McEfee2 to set up vertical columns. Set Up Your Grid in 5 Seconds Determine the margins, number of columns and gutter widths. An example of 12 columns with 20-pixel gutters and margins set to 120 pixels. You can also set a baseline grid this way, but you’d end up with a lot of guides. Method & Craft’s Extensible Baseline Grid Here is a brief summary of the steps for setting up an extensible baseline grid. Establish the grid’s baseline value, then create your pattern template. Adjust the opacity as desired. An example of method 1 with the columns and baseline grid together. Advantages Drawbacks Method 2 Modular Grid Pattern7 is an all-in-one grid solution. (al)
