  1. Introducing InforSense Kanishka Karunanayakekanishka@inforsense.com

  2. Why Scientific Workflow? • Today researchers and decision-makers need effective and timely access to the right information, expertise and derived knowledge to fuel innovation and drive productivity • The Workflow Paradigm • Describes the process of transforming and analysing data to deliver the desired insights • And provides the glue to integrate distributed applications

  3. What does InforSense do? • We provide a workflow engine that: • Provides an open Integrative Analytics environment that ties together your information resources and software applications across domains and functions • Supports innovation and capture of the best work practices of your scientific/business decision making • Leverages the scalability of Oracle • We provide workflow warehousing to: • Manage decision making processes across your organisation • Construct an enterprise process/workflow knowledge bank where it is easy to modify and reuse workflows • We provide flexible workflow deployment engines to: • Turn your workflows into reusable decision services in a manner best suited to your users (web services, client/server, portals, or .net clients) • Provide the appropriate capabilities to your researchers, informaticians, and managers
