Taverna-Provenance-Extractor and Archimate-Converter v1.0

This program encapsulates two different features.

Feature A: Converts a Taverna 2.4 worfklow to an Archimate model.
Feature B: Accesses provenance data captured during a Taverna 2.4 workflow run,
applies DROID on that capturing (to identify used file formats in the workflow) and generates
a CSV report (including e.g., file formats). Extends an existing Domain Specific Ontology (DSO)
with file format information identified by DROID.

===== RUNTIME DEPENDENCIES =====

• JRE 1.6+
• Apache Ant 1.9+ for building
• DOT (comes with Graphviz)

===== HOW-TO BUILD =====

(1) Checkout the current project from https://olymp.ifs.tuwien.ac.at/svn/dp/timbus_development/TavernaExtractor.
(2) Change in the checked-out directory.
(3) Use 'ant jar' to build the a runnable jar.
(4) Change to the 'dist' directory.
(5) Adapt the TavernaExtractor.properties file.
(6) Run the executable with 'java -jar TavernaExtractor.jar '.

===== HOW-TO USE =====

• A => -i,--inputFile path\to\taverna\input.t2flow
  -o,--outputFile path\to\archimate\output.archimate
  -d,--dependencyDir workflow dependencies directory [OPTIONAL]

• B1 => -d,--droid path\where\to\save\droidOutputFile
  

• B2 => -cr,--report path\where\droidOutputFile\is\located
  

• B3 => -ont,--ontology-file path\to\ontology
  -r,--reportFile path\togenerated\DROID\CSVreport

  -v, verbose enable verbose mode

===== SAMPLE USAGE =====

[A] Convert a Taverna Workflow to an Archimate Model:

-i \path\to\TavernvaWorkflowInputFile.t2flow -o \path\to\ArchimateOutputFile.archimate

[B1] Running DROID identififaction process on collected Taverna Workflow Run data:

-d path\to\myDroidFile.droid

Sample Output:
===== [ID] | [Workflow Name (Timestamp)] ===== | 2 entries found.

[1] MusicClassificationExperiment (2013-09-25 13:11:42.488)
[2] MusicClassificationExperiment (2013-09-23 10:44:43.839)
Your choice:  //Enter an ID to process

[B2] Generate a CSV report of a DROID profile: (CSV report is stored in the same directory as the *.droid input file)

-cr path\to\myDroidFile.droid

[B3] Extend existing ontology with information about the used file formats in the workflow run:

-ont \path\to\myOntology.owl -r \path\to\myDroidCSVreportFile.droid.csv
