Abstract :
Parameter sweep applications (PSA) are a class of applications that enable data analysis over large parameter spaces. While PSAs are immensely useful to neuroimaging researchers, they can be tedious to manage, and their inherent requirements for computational resources require a grid computing solution. The pipeline is a workflow management system designed to facilitate the use of PSAs for grid computing in neuroimaging research
