Chart of data flow, major components and subsystems in the pipeline. Three subsystems are presented: genome assembly, feature prediction and functional annotation. Each subsystem consists of a top-level execution script managing the input, output, format conversion and combination of results for a number of components. A hierarchy of scripts and external programs then performs the tasks required to complete each stage. The legend for the flowchart indicates the identities of the distinct pipeline components: data, pipeline component, optional component, external component and external, optional component.
