The important thing is that the research object concept is not specific to any special workflow, it is just a metadata bundle/standard which is only as robust in reproducing the result as the running workflow. Therefore if implemented over a complete workflow like Maneage, it can be very useful in analysing/optimizing the workflow, finding common components between many Maneage'd workflows, or translating to other complete workflows. |
