A growing number of scientific fields suffer from a stifling embarassment of riches: data pile up much faster than they can be analyzed. A team of researchers at the University of Southern California's Information Sciences Institute is now building a prototype of a system that will address the problem by automating scientific workflows.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.physorg.com/news94999881.html"><DIV>
