Taverna is a graphical client for setting up workflows that make use of web services. Taverna allows the user to graphically develop workflows, and the default configuration provides a simple view and access to many bioinformatics web services currently available from various sites around the world. In other words, Taverna will allow those with limited computing background and limited technical resources to construct complex analyses using public and private data. Workflows can be saved for re-use or to share with others.

Taverna is a component of the myGrid project. Further information about Taverna is available at http://taverna.sourceforge.net The myGrid project homepage is at: http://www.mygrid.org.uk
