Data parallelism in bioinformatics workflows using Hydra

Large scale bioinformatics experiments are usually composed by a set of data flows generated by a chain of activities (programs or services) that may be modeled as scientific workflows. Current Scientific Workflow Management Systems (SWfMS) are used to orchestrate these workflows to control and monitor the whole execution. It is very common in bioinformatics experiments to process very large datasets. In this way, data parallelism is a common...
