MIMAS 3.0 Data Annotation and Submission Workflow. Tasks performed by different types of users and curators are depicted. A single user can have several roles, depending on his or her technical skills and the organization of the facility or the consortium. The order in which files and annotation data are stored in MIMAS is flexible and organized within user-defined experiments. Raw data are unprocessed CEL (Affymetrix), tabular files and GFF3 files for DNA sequencing (Illumina). Proc data are processed data files. Sample is biomedical input describing the cells and tissues examined.
