This repository contains the source files for the Transparent Research Object Vocabulary (TROV), an OWL ontology for describing transparent research objects and the systems that create them.
TROV is part of the TRACE project (TRAnsparency CErtified), which develops standards for certifying that computational research results were produced as claimed.
