Descriptions of concepts in arteria-packs sample implementation

Concept	Definition	arteria-packs implementation
Actions	Encapsulate system tasks	Micro-services arteria-runfolder, arteria-bcl2fastq, and checkQC
Workflows	Tie actions together	Mistral workflow defined in workflow_bcl2fastq_and_checkqc.yaml
Sensors	Pick up events from the environment	RunfolderSensor defined in runfolder_sensor.yaml, which detects runfolders ready for processing
Rules	Parse events from sensors and determine whether an action or a workflow should be initiated	Defined in when_runfolder_is_ready_start_bcl2fastq.yaml; fires bcl2fastq workflow when a runfolder is ready
