Project Information

The EU Provenance Project Enabling and Supporting Provenance in Grids for Complex Problems (IST 511085) receives funding from the European Community's Sixth Framework Programme.

As part of our architecture work, we came across common sense definitions of provenance and we defined our own notion of provenance:

• ProvenanceDefinition

The EU Provenance project is structured according to some workpackages, whose activities are described below.

• RequirementsCapture
• ProvenancePrePrototype
• ProvenanceArchitecture
• ProvenanceSecurity
• ProvenanceScalability

The Project will deploy the Provenance architecture in two applications:

• OrganTransplantManagement
• AerospaceEngineering

The EU provenance Architecture Tutorial

• ProvenanceTutorial

The Provenance Open Specification Effort
