Brief description of the OPMW ontology for publishing workflow results.
The two OPM slides are from the OPM tutorial: http://openprovenance.org/tutorial/
(edit 01-10-2013): OPMW has constantly been evolving since it was released in 2011. Some of the details of this presentation may be out of date. For the latest version please see: http://www.opmw.org/model/OPMW/

3. Abstract workflow and concrete workflow
We export the
abstract workflow
in addition to the
executed workflow
Abstract workflow
has conceptual
steps and is
independent of
execution codes
