Provenance in Scientific Workflow Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
The automated tracking and storage of provenance information promises to be a major advantage of scientific workflow systems. We discuss issues related to data and workflow provenance, and present techniques for focusing user attention on meaningful provenance through “user views,” for managing the provenance of nested scientific data, and for using information about the evolution of a workflow specification to understand the difference in the provenance of similar data products.

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...
متن کاملA Logic Programming Approach to Scientific Workflow Provenance Querying
Scientific workflows have become increasingly important for enabling and accelerating many scientific discoveries. More and more scientists and researchers rely on workflow systems to integrate and structure various local and remote heterogeneous data and services to perform in silico experiments. In order to support understanding, validation, and reproduction of scientific results, provenance ...
متن کاملSGProv: Summarization Mechanism for Multiple Provenance Graphs
Scientific workflow management systems (SWfMS) are powerful tools in the automation of scientific experiments. Several workflow executions are necessary to accomplish one scientific experiment. Data provenance, typically collected by SWfMS during workflow execution, is important to understand, reproduce and analyze scientific experiments. Provenance is about data derivation, thus it is typicall...
متن کاملManaging Provenance in Scientific Workflows with ProvManager
Running scientific workflows in distributed environments is motivating the definition of provenance gathering approaches that are loosely coupled to the workflow systems. We have proposed a provenance gathering strategy that is independent from workflow system technology. This strategy has evolved into a provenance management system named ProvManager. The main principle is that each workflow ac...
متن کاملA Model for User-Oriented Data Provenance in Pipelined Scientific Workflows
Integrated provenance support promises to be a chief advantage of scientific workflow systems over script-based alternatives. While it is often recognized that information gathered during scientific workflow execution can be used automatically to increase fault tolerance (via checkpointing) and to optimize performance (by reusing intermediate data products in future runs), it is perhaps more si...
