3.4 The Analyses Tab
After samples have been added and associated with valid data files, a data node
will appear in the Analysis tab (Figure 3-19). The Analyses tab is where different
analysis tools and the corresponding reports are accessed.

example is shown)
3.4.1 Data and Task nodes
The Analyses tab contains two elements: data nodes (circles) and task nodes
(rounded rectangles) connected by lines and arrows. Collectively, they represent
a data analysis pipeline. Customized pipelines can be pre-built or created and is
the subject of Chapter 13.
Data nodes (Figure 3-20) may represent a file imported into the project, or a file
generated by Partek Flow as an output of a task (e.g., alignment of FASTQ files
generates BAM files).
