The process of constructing and testing models, particularly those that incorporate significant prior knowledge, involves multiple steps that are currently very poorly integrated. We have developed SB-Pipeline to create an effective workflow based on open-source code, public standards and modern software practice.
SB-Pipeline is a multi-faceted software platform that pulls together all of the steps involved in collecting and transforming primary data; constructing, annotating and calibrating models; and distributing and sharing simulations and analyses. SB-Pipeline is primarily concerned with data and model management for the purpose of calibration; in existing modeling tools, calibration is an ancillary rather than a primary activity. Conversely, SB-Pipeline does not recreate existing tools for model simulation. Second, SB-Pipeline implements a robust system for tracking the provenance of data, links between data and models, and the origins of model assumptions in data or t
