Easy to Learn
Several documentations are provided with UVSS:
installation and configuration guide, administration guide, user
guide. These documentations contain state-of-the-art UML diagrams that
help the different actors to easily focus on the knowledge they need.
Three kinds of actors interact through UVSS: the user that submits
pipelines, the job scheduler that spawns processes and the
administrator that manages active and postponed pipelines handled by
the job scheduler.
The use-cases UML diagram on the following figure shows the
different main actions that can be carried out by users and administrators.
The user is involved in three main use-cases:
- Prepare pipe: UVSS creates default configuration files for the user and validates
the syntax of those provided by the user. Then UVSS catches
licences and helps the user to spawn small test tasks to validate the chosen settings.
- Execute pipe: UVSS creates a scheduler queue to dock a library of ligands against a given target. Another queue can be used to manage errors.
-
Extract results: UVSS extracts scores and conformations matching user specified characteristics.
The administrator manages pipes (use-case Manage pipes) through UVSS and the job scheduler.
The documentation covers these different user and administrator procedures.
