Abstract
Provenance has been considered as a means to achieve sci- entific workflow reproducibility to verify the workflow processes and results. Cloud computing provides a new computing paradigm for the workflow execution by o↵ering a dynamic and scalable environment with on-demand resource provisioning. In the absence of Cloud infrastructure information, achieving workflow reproducibility on the Cloud becomes a challenge. This paper presents a framework, named ReCAP, to capture the Cloud infrastructure information and to interlink it with the work- flow provenance to establish the Cloud-Aware Provenance (CAP). This paper identifies di↵erent scenarios of using the Cloud for workflow execu- tion and presents di↵erent mapping approaches. The reproducibility of the workflow execution is performed by re-provisioning the similar Cloud resources using CAP and re-executing the workflow; and by comparing the outputs of workflows. Finally, this paper also presents the evaluation of ReCAP in terms of captured provenance, workflow execution time and workflow output comparison.
