Architecture Tutorial Summary and Conclusions

Architecture Tutorial The Provenance Architecture

Architecture Tutorial Main Points Industrial strength Provenance Architecture Adoption of the SOA perspective Identification of key data structures –P-assertions, P-headers, P-structure, Processes

Architecture Tutorial Functionality Recording: –Straightforward recording interface –Attribution –Factuality Querying: –2 types of querying interface –Distributed querying –Scoping

Architecture Tutorial Security and Scalability Security –Integrity / non-repudiation –Access control Scalability –Patterns –Links –References

Architecture Tutorial Methodology Structured way of making applications provenance aware Guidelines for identifying what to record and by whom

Architecture Tutorial Conclusions Crucial topic for many applications Full architectural specification Compliance and Verification An implementation available for download Methodology to make applications provenance-aware
