[provenance-challenge] Discussion of PC4 Scenarios

[Paul Groth]

Hi All,

In preparation for the Fourth Provenance Challenge, we are trying to 
develop and review scenarios to be used in the challenge. After a call 
for submissions, we have received the following 11 scenarios.

1. Modeling objects at multiple granularities
2. Wikipedia Revision History
3. Paper Submission
4. Reconstructing from Foreign Provenance
5. Federated Market Transaction Audit Trails
6. Trust and Privacy Management in Cloud Platforms
7. Understanding the Scientist's Intent associated with a Workflow 
Experiment
8. Provenance Support for Evidence Based Policy
9. Provenance of Published Crystal Images
10. Producing Fishery Country Profiles
11. Composing a scientific experiment with several different workflows

I wanted to thank all the authors for taking the time to submit 
scenarios. They are extremely interesting. Moving on, we need to 
converge towards one (or combination of these scenarios).

We only have two weeks to converge. I ask that everyone who wants to 
take part start reading the scenarios. If you have questions, comments, 
or endorsements please send those to the provenance challenge list.

I will  setup a "straw poll"  next  week to get a feel for where the 
community is at and then we can discuss how to proceed.

Thanks for your participation!
Paul

Note: Our discussion will take place on the provenance challenge mailing 
list (see http://twiki.ipaw.info/bin/view/Challenge/WebHome for 
subscription info). I've also sent this to the xg list just to see if 
anyone from the XG wants to participate. Further discussion should 
happen only on the challenge list.
