This workflow is a concept for how Taverna could connect to the Thomson Reuters Web of Science (WoS) Web services lite. However, at this moment (2015-01-20), the authentication generate a session ID, but the other services (here search and closeSession) do not have an input port for this session ID. According to the documentation, this is required. The error message from the Web service also show this is missing.

This workflow is "work in progress", but may nevertheless be of interest to anyone trying to connect to WSDL Web services.
