Techniques facilitating using flow graphs to represent a data analysis program in a cloud based system for open science collaboration and discovery are provided. In an example, a system can represent a data analysis execution as a flow graph where vertices of the flow graph represent function calls made during the data analysis program and edges between the vertices represent objects passed between the functions. In another example, the flow graph can then be annotated using an annotation database to label the recognized function calls and objects. In another example, the system can then semantically label the annotated flow graph by aligning the annotated graph with a knowledge base of data analysis concepts to provide context for the operations being performed by the data analysis program.
