Towards Semantic Provenance in CRISTAL
نویسندگان
چکیده
Traceability is an important feature of workflow based systems, and is a key source of provenance data. This paper presents CRISTAL, a mature software platform developed and used at CERN for experiment construction at the LHC. It is entirely workflow based capturing provenance on every aspect of its use from application development to end-user interaction. In this paper we summarize some initial work towards the adaptation of CRISTAL to a more semantic orientation, in particular compliance with the Open Provenance Model.

Towards Provenance and Traceability in CRISTAL for HEP
This paper discusses the CRISTAL object lifecycle management system and its use in provenance data management and the traceability of system events. This software was initially used to capture the construction and calibration of the CMS ECAL detector at CERN for later use by physicists in their data analysis. Some further uses of CRISTAL in different projects (CMS, neuGRID and N4U) are presente...
متن کاملCRISTAL-iSE - Provenance Applied in Industry
This paper presents the CRISTAL-iSE project as a framework for the management of provenance information in industry. The project itself is a research collaboration between academia and industry. A key factor in the project is the use of a system known as CRISTAL which is a mature system based on proven description driven principles. A crucial element in the description driven approach is that t...
متن کاملProvenance Support for Medical Research
This poster paper introduces a system known as CRISTAL [1] and the experience using it for medical research, primarily in the neuGRID [2] and neuGridforUsers (N4U) projects. These projects aim to provide detailed traceability for research analysis processes in the study of biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease. They have faced major challenges in managing data volumes and algorithm complexity lead...
متن کاملA Description Driven Approach for Flexible Metadata Tracking
Evolving user requirements presents a considerable software engineering challenge, all the more so in an environment where data will be stored for a very long time, and must remain usable as the system specification evolves around it. Capturing the description of the system addresses this issue since a “description-driven” approach enables new versions of data structures and processes to be cre...
متن کاملTowards Semantics for Provenance Security
Provenance records the history of data. Careless use of provenance may violate the security policies of data. Moreover, the provenance itself may be sensitive information, necessitating restrictions on the use of both data and provenance to enforce security requirements. This paper proposes extensional semantic definitions for provenance security. The semantic definitions require that provenanc...
