                   Title                 Provenance information collection and query of scientific workflow

             Description       Scientific workflow is a typical application system, facilitating e-Science. Scientists model,
                               design, execute, debug, re-configure and re-run their analysis. Provenance information in the
                               scientific workflow system is very useful for a scientist to interpret their workflow results and
                               for other scientists to establish trust in the experimental result.
                               The BDSP (scientific workflow system) initiates provenance information automatically, and
                               stores the provenance information in database. BDC (scientists) need to retrieve the
                               provenance information to confirm the source of the scientific data on experiment or analysis
                               process. The BDSP stores provenance information automatically when data status is changed
                               to support for frequent retrieving.
