SCIENTIFIC SEED COLLECTION

Hardwood Seed Collection and Handling

In a surprisingly few years a major proportion of the South's timber stands will be artificially regenerated with selected or genetically improved stock. Success with southern pines and high stumpage prices for certain species will spur efforts in hardwood stands. Intensive hardwood forestry will require better methods of seed production and handling than those available today. The amount of ti...

Provenance in collection-oriented scientific workflows

We describe a provenance model tailored to scientific workflows based on the CollectionOriented Modeling and Design paradigm. Our implementation within the Kepler scientific workflow system captures the dependencies of data and collection creation events on preexisting data and collections, and embeds these provenance records within the data stream. A provenance query engine operates on self-co...

Provenance Collection Support in the Kepler Scientific Workflow System

In many data-driven applications, analysis needs to be performed on scientific information obtained from several sources and generated by computations on distributed resources. Systematic analysis of this scientific information unleashes a growing need for automated data-driven applications that also can keep track of the provenance of the data and processes with little user interaction and ove...
