Supporting Provenance in Service-Oriented Computing Using the Semantic Web Technologies
Overview The Web is evolving from a global information space to a collaborative problem solving environment in which services (resources) are dynamically discovered and composed into workflows for problem solving, and later disbanded. This gives rise to an increasing demand for provenance, which enables users to trace how a particular result has been arrived at by identifying the resources, configurations and execution settings. This paper analyses the nature of service-oriented computing and defines a new conception called augmented provenance. A Semantic Web Service (SWS) based, hybrid approach is proposed for the creation and management of augmented provenance in which semantic annotation is used to generate semantic provenance data and the database management system is used for execution data management.
