A software application which assists scientists with designing computational experiments. WINGS is a semantic workflow system which incorporates semantic constraints about datasets and workflow components into its workflow representations. The workflow system has an open modular design and can be easily integrated with other existing workflow systems and execution frameworks to extend them with semantic reasoning capabilities. WINGS also allows users to express high-level descriptions of their analysis goals, and assists them by automatically and systematically generating possible workflows that are consistent with that request. In cases where privacy or off-line use are important, WINGS can submit workflows in a scripted format for execution in the local host. It uses Pegasus or OODT as the execution engine for large-scale distributed workflow execution.

A web application and interactive computational environment where users can combine code execution, rich text, mathematics, plots, and rich media. IPython Notebook consists of two parts, the web application and plain texts. The Ipython Notebook web application is used for interactive authoring of literate computations, in which explanatory text, mathematics, computations, and rich media output may be combined. Input and output are stored in persistent cells that may be edited in-place. The plain text documents, called notebooks, record and distribute the results of the rich computations. Saved files in the notebook can be put under version control and shared with colleagues.

A software application which automatically packages up the code, data, and environment required to deploy and run Linux programs on other machines without any installation or configuration. Users can prepend any set of Linux commands with the "cde" binary, and CDE will run them and automatically package up all files accessed during execution. A package is a directory that can be compressed and delivered to any x86-Linux machine and contains all the files and environment variables required to run the original commands. After receiving the package, the user can run those same commands from within the package on any modern x86-Linux distro., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

A biomaterial supply resource which collects and disseminates human heart tissue. Samples include both failing and non-failing hearts, RNA/DNA analysis, tissue staining and immunofluorescence samples.The tissue that has been flash frozen and stored at -80˚C is acquired from distinct regions of the heart such as the LV free wall, septum, and valve leaflets. Individual sample sizes are typically 100-300mg for flash frozen tissues. The DHHR also serves as a resource for assay development, target identification, and sponsored research, capable of isolating cardiomyocytes from hearts and using them for in-vitro assays such as calcium handling, enzyme activity, signalling pathways and other biochemical research activities
