» Workflow objects allow users to put together as many types of operational
objects as needed to complete an analysis.
» Workflow objects allow users to execute only a certain group of operational
objects in a project.
» They allow users to access the Diagram tab, which can be used to add oper-
ational objects, map data, and execute objects.
» They allow users to map data and code to operational objects in the work-
flow, and to manage the flow of data between operational objects.
What are the differences between a workflow operational object and other
operational objects?
» A workflow operational object does not perform any sort of analysis.
» All basic Phoenix operations such as NCA, NLME, or Convolution are
operational objects, but are not workflows.
» A workflow operational object is used to group basic Phoenix operations
for later use or reuse.
Operational Objects
Phoenix analysis work is done using operational objects. An operational object
contain a pointer to input data, a model, plot, or some other function, plus work-
sheet results, plot results, and text results.
