Scope

The project collect and represents provenance for experiments conducted on the GENI platform. The provenance of an experiment is relevant information collected at experiment plane, control plane, and measurement plane. The provenance results will be available in a GENI Provenance Registry (netKarma) but can also be used to augment other collection mechanisms, for instance at the instrument level.

NetKarma is based on the Karma provenance collection and representation service that has been used to collect scientific workflows in diverse applications including satellite imagery pipeline (NASA funded), Linked Environments for Atmospheric Discovery (LEAD, NSF funded), and the Life Science Grid (Lilly Corp. funded).

Current Capabilities

netKarma demonstrated provenance capture from Gush at GEC 7.

Software

Code to allow provenance capture of experiments using GUSH gush2netkarma-1.0.tar.zip. This code does not store events to the Karma system; it simply writes to a file that is then used to create a visual graph.

Spiral 2 Connectivity

This project will use existing Indiana University address and connections. No addition connectivity is needed as initial data sources are globably availible on the Internet or over R&E networks.
