Abstract
E-science experiments typically involve many distributed services maintained by different organisations.
As part of the scientific process, it is important for scientists to be able to verify the
correctness of their own experiments, or to review the correctness of their peers’ work. There is no
existing framework for validating such experiments. Users therefore have to rely on error checking
performed by the services, or adopt other ad hoc methods. This paper introduces a platform independent
framework for validating workflow executions. The validation relies on reasoning over the
documented provenance of experiment results and semantic descriptions of services advertised in a
registry. This validation process ensures experiments are performed correctly, and thus results generated
are meaningful. The framework is tested in a bioinformatics application that performs protein
compressibility analysis.
