				[Taverna Tutorial (DDMoRe)]

DESCRIPTION
============

Taverna (http://www.taverna.org.uk/) is a workflow engine.
Taverna is designed to run data analysis pipe-lines 
where processes are defined in workflow files authored via 
a graphical user interface.

Taverna offers many powerful scientific tools 
for visualisation and information management.
The Taverna front-end however can be daunting to a new user.

The purpose of this tutorial is to provide pharmokinetic modellers 
examples on how Taverna can be used to run simulation software 
on a remote server, using models/parameters obtained 
from a repository and manage the generated output files and graphs.

The tutorial contents is structured to mirror the functionality of 
the DDMoRe application servers (http://www.ddmore.eu/).
At the time of writing (November 2013), the DDMoRe run-time environment 
was under development so the  DDMoRe application servers were not available 
for this tutorial release. The DDMoRe application servers are replaced 
with open source software, which run on a local 'Windows' work-station.

The server software supplied with this tutorial however only offers 
a fraction of the capabilities of the DDMoRe application servers 
and will be replaced with the DDMoRe run-time software as 
those components are released in 2014/15.

At the moment, this tutorial runs Windows 7/8 work-stations only.

REQUIREMENTS
============

Windows 7
Java Standard Edition >=1.6

N/B To keep the software installation simple, 
    all of the software paths are pre-configured.
    If you change the installation paths, the tutorial software will not work.

1. Download all of the above ZIP files from this web-site.
2. Unzip the contents of 'Tutorial.zip' under 'C\:' so 
   that archive root directory is 'C:\Tutorial'.
3. Check that the sub-directories (i.e. bin, data, dist, data, docs, examples, simulation_output) 
   are visible under 'C:\Tutorial'.
4. Change directory to 'C:\Tutorial\dist' 
   and unpack the remaining ZIP files in this directory.
   The tutorial directory should now contain the following sub-folders:-

C:\Tutorial\dist\apache-tomcat-7.0.42
C:\Tutorial\dist\db-derby-10.10.1.1
C:\Tutorial\dist\Octave-3.6.2
C:\Tutorial\dist\R-3.0.1
