Script of Scripts (SoS): an interactive, cross-platform, and cross-language workflow system for reproducible data analysis

Complex bioinformatic data analysis workflows involving multiple scripts in different languages can be difficult to consolidate, share, and reproduce. An environment that streamlines the entire data collection, analysis, visualization and reporting processes of such multi-language analyses is currently lacking.

We developed Script of Scripts (SoS) Notebook, an interactive data analysis environment in which data from different scripting languages flow freely within and across languages. SoS Notebook features a multi-language notebook interface, a protocol for cross-language variable exchange, a preview engine to visualize variables and common bioinformatic file formats, and a report-generation tool to create dynamic documents from steps in different languages. SoS Notebook enables researchers to perform sophisticated bioinformatic analysis using the most suitable tools for different parts of the workflow, without the limitations of a particular language or complications of cross-language communications.
