In this paper I outline my conception of the epistemology of science, by reference to my published papers, showing how the ideas presented there fit together. In particular I disc...
Scientific workflows are frequently being used to model complex phenomena, to analyze instrumental data, to tie together information from distributed sources, and to pursue other ...
Business and scientific workflow management systems (WfMS) offer different features to their users because they are developed for different application areas with different require...
Workflows have recently emerged as a paradigm for representing and managing complex distributed scientific computations and therefore accelerate the pace of scientific progress. A...

Abstract. The International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI) aspires to be a science olympiad alongside such international olympiads in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology. I...
As the basic sciences become increasingly information-intensive, the management and use of research data presents new challenges in the collective activities that constitute schola...
The goal of this column this time was to address major scientific issues and propose novel scientific methods for doing the same thing under different names. However, it turned ou...
The problem of information overload has been addressed by several systems. However, many approaches are limited to informal artifacts and need to refer to the user for reference o...
Abstract. This paper proposes initial steps towards a generic framework for modeling the scientific process. It is generic according to two main axes. First, it can be instantiated...
