Abstract
BioveL addresses the needs of a broad range of biodiversity scientists by offering a series of reliable Web services to construct workflows that can be managed with the myGrid suite of tools: Taverna, BiodiversityCatalogue and myExperiment. The workflow is treated remotely and the expertise is shared across the world. BioVeL's users, data providers and workflow experts are all connected via the Internet. Like a real chemistry laboratory, BioVeL can be considerd to be a virtual laboratory that allows ‘in-silico’ experiments.

The BioVeL e-Laboratory offers ‘best practices’ guidance and efficient workflows for commonly executed analyses in ecology, taxonomy, phylogenetics and metagenomics, with underlying deployment of hardened and robust Web services. Available ‘pre-cooked’ workflows will provide end-users with the capabilities to easily exploit several kinds of resources.
