Immediately, it seems clear that we might be able to settle on a controlled vocabulary for this effort. Using, say, OBO URIs (as in the URIs generated for OBO in OWL) to refer to specific concepts would allow those of us who use semantics to do so, while still providing globally unique identifiers for controlled vocabularies to those of us who don't.<div>

Hi Everybody,<br>
<br>
First, great work Carl. One of the questions I want to pose to the group is, as you read the crystallography scenario, you'll notice that Carl mapped this to an abstract scenario as we discussed at the meeting. To those of you who are thinking of implementing another scenario, do you think you're scenario or the parts you want to implement will fit with this scenario? In particular in terms of file types.<br>
<br>
Also, just for the sake of clarity, I think we need to call this the crystallography scenario, not workflow. I don't want people to be confused. This challenge embraces many different technologies as you'll see when reading the scenario.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Paul<br>

Hello All,<br>
<br>
I am emailing to detail the progress on the crystallography workflow for the 4th provenance challenge.<br>
<br>
I have prepared a detailed account of the workflow which includes a full set of sample data and executables<br>
to help recreate the account.<br>
<br>
There is also a mapping from the abstract scenario to the crystallography workflow<br>
and controlled vocabulary to help identification of common concepts and types.<br>
<br>
This wiki page is currently a draft version.<br>
In continuing the development of this workflow<br>
we will be guided by the needs of<br>
the provenance challenge as a whole.<br>
So any feedback or suggestions are welcome and encouraged.<br>
<br>
