Seems to be an early paper on toolchaining for bioinformatic workflows. Would be a good reference for introduction when talking about the modern Nextflow
and Snakemake
workflows

the advantages of computational pipelines over ad hoc scripts, even for simple tasks, are all more apparent with increasingly complex datasets and the use of parallel processing.
why pipelines vs ad hoc scripts - track dependencies (statically inferred, DAGs) - rules reused for many files (parallelization) - data tracking (rapid development in subsets of pipeline ~ changing parameters,ie. avoid duplicate work when resuming workflows.)
