[kepler-users] Methods to invoke Kepler

[Jianwu Wang]

Hi Sven,

     I think there are at least two ways. If you are OK to deploy Web 
service, you can use kepler run engine. More information can be found at 
https://kepler-project.org/developers/interest-groups/distributed/technical-documentation/the-overview-of-the-workflow-run-engine-component. 
Or you can check the implementation of the kepler run engine and main 
Kepler class (org.kepler.Kepler) and write similar codes by yourself. 
This way is more direct and has less overhead.

     P.S.: I'm ccing it to kepler-users mailing list so other people 
might provide better ideas.

Best wishes

Sincerely yours
