Presentation Transcript

  1. Pipeline Introduction • Sequential steps of • Plugin calls • Script calls • Cluster jobs • Purpose • Codifies the process of creating the data set • Reduces human resources • Reduces human error and omissions

  2. Two Pipeline Types • Resources pipeline • Downloads resources from external sources • Loads resources into database • Example: NRDB files • Analysis pipeline • Extract data from database • Run analysis programs on data • On main or cluster server • Put value added data back into database

  3. Resource Pipeline • Invoked by: • loadresources xmlfile propfile • Take a tour of a resources XML file

  4. Resources Repository • Destination of downloads • Houses files in a file system • Serves as a cache for files • Has API to access files by name and version • If you request an existing file by name and version, repository returns it without downloading • But the wget arguments must match (these are remembered by the repository) • Particularly useful if multiple projects want to synchronize their data input

  5. Analysis Pipeline • Take a tour of the analysis pipeline file • Take a tour of the Steps.pm file • Take a tour of the property file (there’s also one for the resource pipeline

  6. Pipeline Directory Structure • The directory which houses all the information for the pipeline including: • Input data • Logs • Result data • Pipeline control information: • Which steps have been completed • Property files to control cluster • Structured for easy comprehension • Take a tour of the directory structure

  7. Analysis Pipeline API • GUS::Pipeline::Manager.pm • Declares properties • Prevents steps from rerun • Calls plugins • Executes commands • Eases communication with cluster • GUS::Pipeline::MakeTaskDirs.pm • Helps make directories expected by distribjob on the cluster • GUS::Pipeline::TaskRunAndValidate.pm • Helps run a series of tasks on the cluster

  8. DJob • Manages the distribution of tasks across a compute cluster • Handles the case of a very large number of inputs which are processed independently and uniformly • For example, blasting a set of EST against a genome • Now available for clusters using PBS cluster scheduler • http://core.pcbi.upenn.edu/tools/liniactools.html
