Abstract

Diese Publikation beschreibt Verbesserungen an DataDesc, einem Metadaten getriebenen Ansatz für Modellkopplung von wissenschaftlicher Software und Daten in reproduzierbare Workflows. Unter zu Hilfenahme eines automatisierbaren Datenmodells und dem Workflowmanager ioProc entstanden wiederverwendbare Adapterfunktionen, welche notwendige Datentransformationen abbilden und eine transparente Dokumentation garantieren. Dies trägt zur Interoperabilität und FAIRness von wissenschaftlichen Workflows bei.
