20100017146AUTO-ANALYSIS FRAMEWORK FOR SEQUENCE EVALUATION - An automated system for evaluating biological samples which includes a centralized registry that contains protocols and configuration information for both instruments and analysis applications. The registry provides for improved automation of biological process runs using an autoanalysis applications manager component or daemon, which accesses and transmits the appropriate protocol and configuration information to selected instruments and/or applications. This information is used to instruct data capture by the biological instruments and direct the analysis of the data by the analysis applications.01-21-2010
