Adoption by Moby

The Moby project develop a system for interoperability between biological data hosts and analytical services.

Moby plays at least three roles for the myGrid team:

  • the Moby team actively collaborate with myGrid in the development of the ontologies used to describe their services
  • the services published on MOBY are a large proportion of the services often used in Taverna workflows
  • people wishing to combine MOBY services commonly use as a platform

Specific support for Moby services is available within Taverna.

The paper Interoperability with Moby 1.0—It’s better than sharing your toothbrush! by the Moby consortium gives an overview of Moby and their activities.
