Abstract

We propose an abstract model for scientific protocols, where several atomic operators are proposed for protocol composition We distinguish two different layers associated with scientific protocols: design and implementation, and discuss the mapping between them We illustrate our approach with a representative example and describe ProtocolDB, a scientific protocol repository currently in development Our approach benefits scientists by allowing the archiving of scientific protocols with the collected data sets to constitute a scientific portfolio for the laboratory to query, compare and revise protocols.
