PROvenance Tracking System (PROToS)
Welcome!
PROToS is an integral part of the VLvl (that is ViroLab Virtual Laboratory). On this site you could find developer information, manuals and news about the PROToS development.
About
PROToS is a knowledge-based, lightweight, and fully distributed set of components responsible for gathering provenance data, exposing it for later mining and building advanced provenance queries.
From the technical point of view, the whole system was designed with storage space and query processing speed in mind. It features many modern solutions, such as ontology processing logic and data routing, XML storage or XQuery support. From the technical point of view it uses such technologies as Dependency Injection containers (Spring), XML persistent storage, portlet with AJAX GUI technologies and JMX based configuration utilities.
From the user’s point of view we were aiming at ease of use for all types of users, both technicians and medical people. It expresses in technologies we have chosen and in Graphical User Interface (QUaTRO component).
