 Modifying inputs that are used in the task hash invalidates the cache. Common causes of modified inputs include:
 
 - Changing input files
 - Resuming from a different session ID
 - Changing the process name
+- Changing the calling workflow name
 - Changing the task container image or Conda environment
 - Changing the task script
 - Changing a bundled script used by the task
 
-Nextflow calculates a hash for an input file using its full path, last modified timestamp, and file size. If any of these attributes change, Nextflow re-executes the task. If a process modifies its input files, you cannot resume it. Avoid processes that modify their own input files as this is considered an anti-pattern.

-Race conditions can in disrupt caching behavior of your pipeline. For example:
+Race conditions can disrupt the caching behavior of your pipeline. For example:
 
 ```nextflow
-channel.of(1,2,3) | map { v -> X=v; X+=2 } | view { v -> "ch1 = $v" }
-channel.of(1,2,3) | map { v -> X=v; X*=2 } | view { v -> "ch2 = $v" }
+channel.of(1,2,3).map { v -> X=v; X+=2 }.view { v -> "ch1 = $v" }
+channel.of(1,2,3).map { v -> X=v; X*=2 }.view { v -> "ch2 = $v" }
 ```
 
-In the above example, `X` is declared in each `map` closure. Without the `def` keyword, or other type qualifier, the variable `X` is global to the entire script. Operators and executed concurrently and, as `X` is global, there is a *race condition* that causes the emitted values to vary depending on the order of the concurrent operations. If these values were passed to a process as inputs the process would execute different tasks during each run due to the race condition.
