Introduction
==========================================================
A Grimoire is a magician's manual for invoking demons (Oxford English 
Dictionary). Likewise, the Grimoires registry hosts descriptions of services 
and workflows, which a scientist can use for forming their complex scientific
experiments. However, service and workflow interfaces are sometimes 
underspecified and therefore difficult to use in an automated manner; hence, 
the Grimoires registry augments their interfaces with metadata such as 
functionality, semantic information about their inputs and outputs, or 
various metrics (e.g. perceived quality of service, trust).
