Abstract :
This paper presents the integration of a workflow management system into the VL-e medical software architecture. Workflows are designed with the Taverna workbench, and then executed with the MOTEUR engine on the EGEE grid through the VBrowser, which is the basic front-end for grid-enabled applications in the VL-e medical project. Data management is handled by the virtual file system of the VL-e toolkit. The resulting system provides a high-level interface to execute grid applications.
