Hi Lakshani,

Sorry for the delay in replying. 

What you are saying is correct up to some extent. XBaya is limited to submitting & monitoring one workflow at a time & has no proper analyzing available. 

For instance you can think of the tool to be something like the Elasticfox [1] a firefox extension for Amazon users to connect & manage their EC2 account through the FF browser.

> For a person who works alot with workflows & job executions, would like to have some tools to do common tasks like submitting jobs/workflows, monitoring & analyzing. If he/she can use such a tool with very less effort on configuring & taking less resources it will be quite useful. 
> What I'm suggesting is having some simple tools built as plugins for frequently used applications such as web browsers and IDEs. These plugins will give the ability for the user to do atleast the basic workflow execution tasks, monitoring their progress, get notifications , view statistics etc.
