For the First Provenance Challenge, we introduce a layered model to represent workflow provenance that allows navigation from an abstract model of the experiment to instance data collected during a specific experiment run. We outline modest extensions to a commercial workflow engine so it will automatically capture provenance at workflow runtime. We also present an approach to store this proven...

This paper analyzes the requirements and presents a novel approach to the development of a system for epidemiological data collection and integration based on the principles of interoperability and modularity. Accurate and timely epidemic models require the integration of large, fresh datasets. Thus, from an e-science perspective, collected data should be shared seamlessly across multiple appli...

E-Science, cyberinfrastructure – these ideas are at the heart of the great ambitions and promise of science in the new century. The last several decades of networkand computer-enabled work in science have produced untold amounts of data, leading to the challenge of developing practices to manage and provide access to this data. Along with oceans of data and technology, changes in the conduct an...

This document is intended to stimulate debate and discussion during the Escience Scoping Study Expert Seminar. It is a tentative, partial, personal and therefore controversial delineation of the challenges and opportunities that the E-science agenda presents the Performing Arts and Media sector. It proposes areas of specific activity that the sector may benefit from addressing. It also delineat...

Mechanism design, an important tool in microeconomics, has found widespread applications in modelling and solving decentralized design problems in many branches of engineering, notably computer science, electronic commerce, and network economics. In the first part of this tutorial on mechanism design (Garg et al 2008), we looked into the key notions and classical results in mechanism design the...

Abstract. Collaborative e-Science projects commonly require data analysis to be performed on distributed data sets which may contain sensitive information. In addition to the credential-based privacy protection, ensuring proper handling of computerized data for disclosure and analysis is particularly essential in eScience. In this paper, we propose a semantic approach for enforcing it through w...
