== Overview ==<br />
PROV is a specification that provides a vocabulary to interchange provenance information. Users can do so by marking up their web page using the terms provided or by making available provenance information expressed as linked data. <br />
<br />
The PROV "family" of documents consists of 12 documents; the best is to look at the [http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-overview/ PROV Overview] Document for a list of those and how they relate to one another. <br />

'''ISO 19115 Lineage'''<br />
<br />
<br />
This is a OWL 2 DL extension of PROV-O that models part of the ISO 19115 UML metadata standard; in particular the concepts relating to lineage. The modelling covers the standard classes prefixed by LI_ ("lineage") and LE_("lineage extended") and provides placeholders for the other classes referenced by them. The intention of this ontology is to enable ISO lineage records (typically presented in XML) to be re-presented according to this ontology and therefore supporting interoperability with other PROV-O provenance records. The design has treated PROV-O as an upper ontology extended with the ISO 19115 concepts, faithfully carrying through the names and structure of the ISO 19115. As a result the design may well differ from both a direct translation of the UML to OWL and also from a fresh attempt to model the ISO 19115 content in PROV-O.<br />

<div>== Getting to know PROV - the W3C Provenance Specifications ==<br />
<br />
Provenance (the origin or source) of information is critical in deciding whether information is to be trusted, how it should be integrated with other diverse information sources, and how to give credit to its originators when reusing it. In order to promote the widespread publication of provenance information on the Web, the W3C is producing the [http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-overview/ W3C PROV] set of specifications. These specifications provide a basis for the common exchange of provenance information on the Web. This half-day tutorial provides you with an in depth dive into these specifications including hands on information on how to publish, query and access provenance information. You will learn how to model your provenance data using the PROV data model and ontology, how to produce provenance information that enables integrity checking and inferences, as well as how to expose and acquire provenance information using PROV access mechanisms and services.<br />

<div>== Getting to know PROV - the W3C Provenance Specifications ==<br />
<br />
Provenance (the origin or source) of information is critical in deciding whether information is to be trusted, how it should be integrated with other diverse information sources, and how to give credit to its originators when reusing it. In order to promote the widespread publication of provenance information on the Web, the W3C is producing the W3C PROV set of specifications. These specifications provide a basis for the common exchange of provenance information on the Web. This half-day tutorial provides you with an in depth dive into these specifications including hands on information on how to publish, query and access provenance information. You will learn how to model your provenance data using the PROV data model and ontology, how to produce provenance information that enables integrity checking and inferences, as well as how to expose and acquire provenance information using PROV access mechanisms and services.<br />

In addition to the classic “Web of documents” W3C is helping to build a technology stack to support a “Web of data,” the sort of data you find in databases. The ultimate goal of the Web of data is to enable computers to do more useful work and to develop systems that can support trusted interactions over the network. The term “Semantic Web” refers to W3C’s vision of the Web of linked data. Semantic Web technologies enable people to create data stores on the Web, build vocabularies, and write rules for handling data. Linked data are empowered by technologies such as [[RDF]], [[SPARQL]], [[OWL]], and [[SKOS]].<br />
<br />
The goal of this wiki is to provide a “first stop” for more information on Semantic Web technologies, in particular on ''Semantic Web Standards'' published by the W3C. It does not aim to give a complete set on information on Semantic Web related events, conferences, ontologies or community efforts. There are already a number of sites maintained by the community that users can refer to (see some below).<br />

In this tutorial, we will introduce the background of the PROV specifications which are designed to address the problem of interoperability between systems having to exchange provenance information. We will present PROV concepts and the underlying theory, establishing the kind of inferences that are valid in this model. PROV is a technology independent model. It is represented in computer systems by means of bindings for specific technologies, such as XML Schema and OWL. We will focus on the OWL ontology in this tutorial. The tutorial will be based on the [http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-overview/ PROV Family of Documents]<br />

'''ISO 19115 Lineage'''<br />
<br />
<br />
This is a OWL 2 DL extension of PROV-O that models part of the ISO 19115 UML metadata standard; in particular the concepts relating to lineage. The modelling covers the standard classes prefixed by LI_ ("lineage") and LE_("lineage extended") and provides placeholders for the other classes referenced by them. The intention of this ontology is to enable ISO lineage records (typically presented in XML) to be re-presented according to this ontology and therefore supporting interoperability with other PROV-O provenance records. The design has treated PROV-O as an upper ontology extended with the ISO 19115 concepts, faithfully carrying through the names and structure of the ISO 19115. As a result the design may well differ from both a direct translation of the UML to OWL and also from a fresh attempt to model the ISO 19115 content in PROV-O.<br />

<div>== Getting to know PROV - the W3C Provenance Specifications ==<br />
<br />
Provenance (the origin or source) of information is critical in deciding whether information is to be trusted, how it should be integrated with other diverse information sources, and how to give credit to its originators when reusing it. In order to promote the widespread publication of provenance information on the Web, the W3C is producing the W3C PROV set of specifications. These specifications provide a basis for the common exchange of provenance information on the Web. This half-day tutorial provides you with an in depth dive into these specifications including hands on information on how to publish, query and access provenance information. You will learn how to model your provenance data using the PROV data model and ontology, how to produce provenance information that enables integrity checking and inferences, as well as how to expose and acquire provenance information using PROV access mechanisms and services.<br />

== Overview of the PROV Family ==<br />
<br />
In this tutorial, we will introduce the background of the PROV specifications which are designed to address the problem of interoperability between systems having to exchange provenance information. We will present PROV concepts and the underlying theory, establishing the kind of inferences that are valid in this model. PROV is a technology independent model. It is represented in computer systems by means of bindings for specific technologies, such as XML Schema and OWL. We will focus on the OWL ontology in this tutorial. The tutorial will be based on the [http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-overview/ PROV Family of Documents]<br />

<hr />
<div>Here are some answers to frequently asked questions about PROV and using it.<br />
<br />
===What is the relationship between Dublin Core and PROV?===<br />
The two specifications are complimentary. Dublin Core contains many provenance related terms many of which are more specific than those provided by PROV. For those terms, there is a mapping from Dublin Core Metadata Terms to PROV provided by a best practice document. If your system understands PROV, it will be able to understand the provenance terms of Dublin Core.<br />
<br />
===How can I define a sub activity?===<br />
PROV contains the notion of an activity. Some people have asked how to model sub-activities. We suggest using [http://purl.org/dc/terms/hasPart dcterms:hasPart]<br />
<br />
<br />
===When should I use prov:Agent subtypes?===<br />
If you want to denote that some Person, Organization or Software Agent has responsibility for and activity or entity use the subtypes of<br />
prov:Agent. Otherwise, we suggest that use other ontologies like FOAF.<br />
<br />
=== Examples of Provenance ===<br />
<br />
==== Provenance of a Car ====<br />
<br />
The prov-dm document gives the example of a car, moved from Boston to Cambridge (see example 5 CR document). For this car, we identify multiple entities exposing various facets of the thing: Joe's car, Joe's car in Boston, and Joe's car in Cambridge.<br />
<br />
entity(joe-car)<br />
entity(joe-car-boston, [prov:location="boston"])<br />
entity(joe-car-cambridge, [prov:location="cambridge"])<br />
alternateOf(joe-car-boston,joe-car-cambridge)<br />
specializationOf(joe-car-cambridge, joe-car)<br />
specialization(joe-car-boston, joe-car)<br />
<br />
Joe-car-cambridge begins to exist when the car arrives is Cambridge, and Joe-car-boston ceases to exist (invalidation) once it leaves Boston. So joe-car-cambridge's generation time is defined as the time at which in arrives in Cambridge.<br />
<br />
==== Provenance of Flour ====<br />
<br />
If a change in a resource's state is something to be documented in the provenance, then that requires multiple entities.<br />
<br />
If a change is to be documented in PROV, then multiple entities are used, e.g. the flour before and after baking. If it is not documented, then only one entity is required. There is no notion of a change which is "documented but not significant", because it is unclear what significance would be in general except for the decision to model/document it. As before, a general, mutable "flour" entity can exist that is connected to the flour before and after baking using prov:specializationOf. For example:<br />
<br />
ex:baked prov:used ex:flour1<br />
ex:flour2 prov:wasGeneratedBy ex:baked<br />
ex:flour2 prov:wasDerivedFrom ex:flour1<br />
ex:flour1 prov:specializationOf ex:flour<br />
ex:flour2 prov:specializationOf ex:flour<br />
<br />
=== Why doesn't PROV use FOAF? ===<br />
<br />
TODO: Tim Lebo<br />
<br />
=== Access and query - arbitrary data ===<br />
<br />
@@TODO: text lifted from what was section 3.4 of PROV-AQ<br />
<br />

If a resource is represented using a data format other than HTML or RDF, and no URI for the resource is known, provenance discovery becomes trickier to achieve. This specification does not define a specific mechanism for such arbitrary resources, but this section discusses some of the options that might be considered.<br />

<p><br />
For formats which have provision for including metadata within the file (e.g. JPEG images, PDF documents, etc.), use the format-specific metadata to include a <a class="internalDFN">target-URI</a>, <a class="internalDFN">provenance-URI</a> and/or <a class="internalDFN">service-URI</a>. Format-specific metadata provision might also be used to include <a class="internalDFN">provenance information</a> directly in the resource.<br />

<h4>Using SPARQL for provenance queries</h4><br />
<p><br />
Simply identifying and retrieving provenance information as a resource on the Web may not always meet the requirements of a particular application or service, e.g.:</p><br />
<ul><br />
<li>the resource for which provenance information is required is not identified by a known URI</li><br />
<li>the provenance information for a resource is not directly identified by a known URI</li><br />
<li>a requirement to access provenance information for a number of distinct but related resources in a single atomic operation</li><br />
<li><i>etc.</i></li><br />
</ul><br />
<p><br />
A provenance query service provides an alternative way to access provenance information and/or provenance-URIs. An application will need a URI for the provenance query service, and some relevant information about the resource whose provenance is to be accessed.<br />
</p><br />
<p><br />
The details of a provenance query service is an implementation choice, but for interoperability between different providers and users we recommend use of SPARQL [[RDF-SPARQL-PROTOCOL]] [[RDF-SPARQL-QUERY]].<br />
The query service URI would then be the URI of a <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-sparql-protocol/#conformant-sparql-protocol-service" class="externalRef">SPARQL protocol service</a> <br />
(often referred to as a "SPARQL endpoint").<br />
The following subsections provide examples for what are considered to be some plausible common scenarios for using SPARQL, and are not intended to cover all possibilities.<br />
</p><br />
<p><br />
A SPARQL protocol service description may be published using the <cite>SPARQL 1.1 Service Description</cite> vocabulary [[SPARQL-SD]].<br />
</p><br />
<p><br />
The following subsections illustrate use cases for querying a SPARQL-based provenance query service.<br />
</p><br />
<br />
<br />
<h4>Find a provenance-URI given a target-URI</h4><br />
<p><br />
If the requester has a <a class="internalDFN">target-URI</a>, a simple SPARQL query may be used to return the corresponding <a class="internalDFN">provenance-URI</a>. E.g., if the original resource has a target-URI <code>http://example.org/resource</code>:</p><br />
<pre class="example code"><br />
@prefix prov: &lt;http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#&gt;<br />
SELECT ?provenance_uri WHERE<br />
{<br />
&lt;http://example.org/resource&gt; prov:hasProvenance ?provenance_uri<br />
}<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
<h4>Find Provenance-URI given identifying information about a resource</h4><br />
<p><br />
If the requester has identifying information that is not the URI of the original resource, then they will need to construct a more elaborate query to locate a resource description and obtain its provenance-URI(s). The nature of identifying information that can be used in this way will depend upon the third party service used, further definition of which is out of scope for this specification. For example, a query for a document identified by a DOI, say <code>1234.5678</code>, using the PRISM vocabulary [[PRISM]] might look like this:</p><br />
<pre class="example code"><br />
@prefix prov: &lt;http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#&gt;<br />
@prefix prism: &lt;http://prismstandard.org/namespaces/basic/2.0/&gt;<br />
SELECT ?provenance_uri WHERE<br />
{<br />
[ prism:doi "1234.5678" ] prov:hasProvenance ?provenance_uri<br />
}<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
<br />
<h4>Obtain provenance information directly given a target-URI</h4><br />
<p><br />
This scenario retrieves provenance information directly given the URI of a resource, and may be useful where the provenance information has not been assigned a specific URI, or when the calling application is interested only in specific elements of provenance information.<br />
</p><br />
<p><br />
If the original resource has a URI <code>http://example.org/resource</code>, a SPARQL query for provenance information might look like this: </p><br />
<pre class="example code"><br />
@prefix prov: &lt;http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#&gt;<br />
SELECT ?generationStartTime WHERE {<br />
&lt;http://example.org/resource&gt; prov:wasGeneratedBy ?activity .<br />
?activity prov:startedAtTime ?generationStartTime .<br />
}<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
<p><br />
This query extracts a "generation start time" for an artifact by following links to the start time of the activity which generated it.<br />
</p><br />
<br />
<br />
<h4>Incremental Provenance Retrieval</h4><br />
<p><a class="internalDFN">Provenance information</a> may be large. While this specification does not define how to implement scalable provenance systems, it does allow for publishers to make available provenance in an incremental fashion. We now discuss two possibilities for incremental provenance retrieval.<br />
</p><br />
<br />
<h4>Via Web Retrieval</h4><br />
<p>Publishers are not required to publish all the provenance information associated with a given resource at a particular <a class="internalDFN">provenance-URI</a>. The amount of provenance information exposed is application dependent. However, it is possible to incrementally retrieve (i.e. walk the provenance graph) by progressively looking up provenance information using HTTP. The pattern is as follows:</p><br />
<ol><br />
<li>For a given resource (<code>resource-URI</code>) retrieve it's associated <code>provenance-URI-1</code> and its associated <code>target-URI-1</code> using a returned HTTP <code>Link:</code> header field (<a href="#resource-accessed-by-http" class="sectionRef"></a>)</li><br />
<li>Dereference <code>provenance-URI-1</code></li><br />
<li>Navigate the provenance information</li><br />
<li>When reaching a dead-end during navigation, that is on encountering a reference to a resource (<code>target-URI-2</code>) with no provided provenance information, find its provenance-URI and continue from Step 2. (Note: an HTTP HEAD request for <code>target-URI-2</code> may be used to obtain the <code>Link:</code> headers without retrieving the resource representation.)</li><br />
</ol><br />
<br />
<p>To reduce the overhead of multiple HTTP requests, a provenance information publishers are encouraged to link entities to their associated provenance information using the <code>prov:hasProvenance</code> predicate. Thus, the same pattern above applies, except instead of having to retrieve a new <code>Link</code> header field, one can immediately access the resource's associated provenance.<br />
</p><br />
<p>The same approach can be adopted when using the <a class="internalDFN">provenance service</a> API (<a href="#provenance-services" class="sectionRef"></a>). However, instead of performing an HTTP HEAD or GET against a resource one queries the provenance service using the given <a class="internalDFN">target-URI</a>.<br />
</p><br />
<br />
<br />
<h4>Via SPARQL Queries</h4><br />
<p>Provenance information may be made available using a SPARQL endpoint (<a href="#querying-provenance-information" class="sectionRef"></a>) [[RDF-SPARQL-PROTOCOL]] [[RDF-SPARQL-QUERY]]. Using SPARQL queries, provenance can be selectively retrieved using combinations of filters and or path queries.<br />
</p><br />
<br />
=== Can PROV-XML use GRDDL? ===<br />
<br />
PROV-XML documents can include a reference to a [http://www.w3.org/TR/grddl-primer/ GRDDL] transformation, which -- when invoked with the document as input -- will produce a PROV-O representation of the PROV-XML. Include the xmlns:grddl and grddl:transformation attributes below, and point to any appropriate XSL stylesheet (the one shown is for demonstration purposes and is incomplete).<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
<prov:document<br />
xmlns:grddl="http://www.w3.org/2003/g/data-view#"<br />
grddl:transformation="https://raw.github.com/timrdf/provenanceweb/master/src/provx2o.xsl"<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
The WG could add a default XSL within the w3.org/ns...<br />
Adopters are encouraged to specify whichever @transformation they wish (including their own tailored to their flavor of prov).<br />
<br />
=== Validity and Bundles ===<br />
<br />
The following example shows a document containing two bundles. This document is '''invalid''' because the first bundle <code>ex:b1</code> contains a cycle of derivations, which is not allowed due to the [http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-constraints/#derivation-generation-generation-ordering PROV Constraint derivation-generation-generation-ordering] (e1 is older than e2, but e2 is older than e1).<br />
<br />
document<br />
prefix ex <http://example.org/><br />
<br />
bundle ex:b1<br />
entity(ex:e1)<br />
entity(ex:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex:e1,ex:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex:e2,ex:e1)<br />
endBundle<br />
<br />
bundle ex:b2<br />
entity(ex:e1)<br />
entity(ex:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex:e2,ex:e1)<br />
endBundle<br />
endDocument<br />
<br />
In this second example, the document is '''valid''', since the validity of each bundle is established independently of the other bundle. While there is a cycle of derivations, this cycle is not present in any single bundle.<br />
<br />
document<br />
prefix ex <http://example.org/><br />
<br />
bundle ex:b1<br />
entity(ex:e1)<br />
entity(ex:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex:e1,ex:e2)<br />
endBundle<br />
<br />
bundle ex:b2<br />
entity(ex:e1)<br />
entity(ex:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex:e2,ex:e1)<br />
endBundle<br />
endDocument<br />
<br />
<br />
Finally, in the third example, the document is '''not syntactically correct''' since descriptions in bundle <code>ex:b2</code> refer to prefixes <code>ex1</code> and <code>ex2</code>, which are neither defined in bundle <code>ex:b2</code> nor at the toplevel.<br />
<br />
<br />
document<br />
prefix ex <http://example.org/><br />
<br />
bundle ex:b1<br />
prefix ex1 <http://example.org/><br />
<br />
entity(ex1:e1)<br />
entity(ex1:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex1:e1,ex1:e2)<br />
endBundle<br />
<br />
bundle ex:b2<br />
entity(ex1:e1)<br />
entity(ex2:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex2:e2,ex2:e1)<br />
endBundle<br />
endDocument<br />
<br />
=== Can I infer Derivation from Usage and Generation? ===<br />
<br />
No! Consider the trivial contrived example of an activity X that uses 3 input entities, a,b,c, and generates 2 output entities, one with a value of the sum of the first two (d = a+b), and a second with a value of the second two (e = b+c). You could express that:<br />
<br />
used(X, a)<br />
used(X, b)<br />
used(X, c)<br />
wasGeneratedBy(d, X)<br />
wasGeneratedBy(e, X)<br />
<br />
Given our description, we would also assert that:<br />
<br />
wasDerivedFrom(d, a)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(d, b)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(e, b)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(e, c)<br />
<br />
But you could not infer from the Usages and Generations for activity X that:<br />
<br />
wasDerivedFrom(d, c)<br />
<br />
or:<br />
<br />
wasDerivedFrom(e, a)<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Should I use wasInfluencedBy, wasInformedBy, or another relation? ===<br />
<br />
The names of terms in the PROV data model and ontology are chosen as carefully as possible to distinctly represent the concepts intended. However, as a generic model intended to express provenance in many settings, it is impossible to find names that, read as colloquial English, match their use precisely in each setting. The terms wasInfluencedBy and wasInformedBy have been confused, due to the similar meanings of the words 'influence' and 'inform'.<br />
<br />
First, in choosing a relation, please read the definitions rather than relying on the names, as these will help clarify their intended use. In general, we discourage the use of the wasInfluencedBy in expressing provenance unless very little information is known about what you would like to model in the provenance. wasInfluencedBy is a super-property of the relations for common use: used, wasGeneratedBy, wasAssociatedWith, wasInformedBy, etc. These properties relate entities, activities and agents in varying combinations. wasInfluencedBy is present more to help querying provenance data, at times where you do not care about which type of provenance relation is being expressed. wasInformedBy is a more specific relation connecting one activity to another implying "the exchange of some unspecified entity by two activities, one activity using some entity generated by the other", so that one activity was in some way dependent on the other.<br />
<br />
If you find yourself using wasInfluencedBy in your provenance model, it is preferable to check what kinds of element (entities, activities, or agents) you are trying to relate and considering using the more specific relation. For example, if you wish to express the influence of one entity on another, consider using a wasDerivedFrom relation.<br />

=== Capitalization Conventions in PROV ===<br />
<br />
Various conventions are adopted by various communities, and the group itself had its own set of requirements. Hence, the following conventions were adopted, as a compromise among those sometimes conflicting constraints.<br />
<br />
==== PROV-DM====<br />
<br />
1. In Figure 1 of prov-dm (http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-dm/#prov-core-structures-top) classes are capitalized. <br />
<br />
2. Relations are expressed using a past tense verbal form (was derived from, was generated by, ...)<br />
<br />
3. Figure 5 (http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-dm/#figure-component1) and subsequent figures show that most relations are reified (called Association Class in UML, and see Qualified Pattern in PROV-O), so in compliance with UML convention, binary association and corresponding association classes are capitalized.<br />
<br />
4. Values that the prov:type attribute can take are classes, and therefore are capitalized prov:Bundle, prov:SoftwareAgent, etc<br />
<br />
5. Definitions define terms informally, in English. Terms in definitions are not capitalized (unless they begin the sentence).<br />
<br />
==== PROV-N ====<br />
<br />
1. All expressions start with a predicate using camel case with the first letter as lower case.<br />
<br />
agent(ex:ag)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex:e2, ex:e1)<br />
<br />
2. References to types are capitalized:<br />
<br />
entity(ex:b1, [prov:type="prov:Bundle]) <br />
agent(ex:ag1, [prov:type="prov:SoftwareAgent"])<br />
<br />
==== PROV-O ====<br />
<br />
1. Properties use camel case with the first letter as lower case.<br />
<br />
2. Classes are capitalized<br />
<br />
ex:e2 prov:wasDerivedFrom ex:e1.<br />
<br />
ex:e2 a prov:Entity.<br />
<br />
==== PROV-XML ====<br />
<br />
1. Elements use camel case with the first letter as lower case.<br />
<br />
2. Classes in the XML schema are capitalized<br />
<br />
<prov:agent id="ex:ag"><br />
<prov:type="prov:SoftwareAgent"/><br />
</prov:agent><br />

===How does PROV address the recommendations of the Provenance Incubator Group===<br />
Seven of the eight recommendations defined by the Provenance Incubator are directly addressed by PROV specification: <br />
<br />
* Core concepts (recommendation #1) addressed by Entity, Agent, Person, id, Activity in the PROV data model<br />
* Provenance publishing (recommendation #3) addressed by prov-aq<br />
* Provenance of provenance (recommendation #4) addressed by bundles in prov-dm<br />
* Reproducibility (recommendation #5) addressed by Activity, Usage, Generation, etc in the PROV data model<br />
* Versioning (recommendation #6) addressed by Derivation, Revision, Specialization, Alternate in the PROV data model<br />
* Procedure (recommendation #7) addressed by Activity and Plan in the PROV data model<br />
* Derivation (recommendation #8) addressed by Derivation in the PROV data model<br />
<br />
Recommendation #2 was out of scope for standardization of activity of the working group, but it is believed that it can be supported by PROV extensibility points.</div>Pgrothhttps://www.w3.org/2001/sw/wiki/index.php?title=PROV-FAQ&diff=3643PROV-FAQ2013-04-10T09:08:11Z<p>Pgroth: </p>
<hr />
<div>Here are some answers to frequently asked questions about PROV and using it.<br />
<br />
===What is the relationship between Dublin Core and PROV?===<br />
The two specifications are complimentary. Dublin Core contains many provenance related terms many of which are more specific than those provided by PROV. For those terms, there is a mapping from Dublin Core Metadata Terms to PROV provided by a best practice document. If your system understands PROV, it will be able to understand the provenance terms of Dublin Core.<br />
<br />
===How can I define a sub activity?===<br />
PROV contains the notion of an activity. Some people have asked how to model sub-activities. We suggest using [http://purl.org/dc/terms/hasPart dcterms:hasPart]<br />
<br />
<br />
===When should I use prov:Agent subtypes?===<br />
If you want to denote that some Person, Organization or Software Agent has responsibility for and activity or entity use the subtypes of<br />
prov:Agent. Otherwise, we suggest that use other ontologies like FOAF.<br />
<br />
=== Examples of Provenance ===<br />
<br />
==== Provenance of a Car ====<br />
<br />
The prov-dm document gives the example of a car, moved from Boston to Cambridge (see example 5 CR document). For this car, we identify multiple entities exposing various facets of the thing: Joe's car, Joe's car in Boston, and Joe's car in Cambridge.<br />
<br />
entity(joe-car)<br />
entity(joe-car-boston, [prov:location="boston"])<br />
entity(joe-car-cambridge, [prov:location="cambridge"])<br />
alternateOf(joe-car-boston,joe-car-cambridge)<br />
specializationOf(joe-car-cambridge, joe-car)<br />
specialization(joe-car-boston, joe-car)<br />
<br />
Joe-car-cambridge begins to exist when the car arrives is Cambridge, and Joe-car-boston ceases to exist (invalidation) once it leaves Boston. So joe-car-cambridge's generation time is defined as the time at which in arrives in Cambridge.<br />
<br />
==== Provenance of Flour ====<br />
<br />
If a change in a resource's state is something to be documented in the provenance, then that requires multiple entities.<br />
<br />
If a change is to be documented in PROV, then multiple entities are used, e.g. the flour before and after baking. If it is not documented, then only one entity is required. There is no notion of a change which is "documented but not significant", because it is unclear what significance would be in general except for the decision to model/document it. As before, a general, mutable "flour" entity can exist that is connected to the flour before and after baking using prov:specializationOf. For example:<br />
<br />
ex:baked prov:used ex:flour1<br />
ex:flour2 prov:wasGeneratedBy ex:baked<br />
ex:flour2 prov:wasDerivedFrom ex:flour1<br />
ex:flour1 prov:specializationOf ex:flour<br />
ex:flour2 prov:specializationOf ex:flour<br />

PROV-XML documents can include a reference to a [http://www.w3.org/TR/grddl-primer/ GRDDL] transformation, which -- when invoked with the document as input -- will produce a PROV-O representation of the PROV-XML. Include the xmlns:grddl and grddl:transformation attributes below, and point to any appropriate XSL stylesheet (the one shown is for demonstration purposes and is incomplete).<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
<prov:document<br />
xmlns:grddl="http://www.w3.org/2003/g/data-view#"<br />
grddl:transformation="https://raw.github.com/timrdf/provenanceweb/master/src/provx2o.xsl"<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
The WG could add a default XSL within the w3.org/ns...<br />
Adopters are encouraged to specify whichever @transformation they wish (including their own tailored to their flavor of prov).<br />
<br />
=== Validity and Bundles ===<br />
<br />
The following example shows a document containing two bundles. This document is '''invalid''' because the first bundle <code>ex:b1</code> contains a cycle of derivations, which is not allowed due to the [http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-constraints/#derivation-generation-generation-ordering PROV Constraint derivation-generation-generation-ordering] (e1 is older than e2, but e2 is older than e1).<br />
<br />
document<br />
prefix ex <http://example.org/><br />
<br />
bundle ex:b1<br />
entity(ex:e1)<br />
entity(ex:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex:e1,ex:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex:e2,ex:e1)<br />
endBundle<br />
<br />
bundle ex:b2<br />
entity(ex:e1)<br />
entity(ex:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex:e2,ex:e1)<br />
endBundle<br />
endDocument<br />
<br />
In this second example, the document is '''valid''', since the validity of each bundle is established independently of the other bundle. While there is a cycle of derivations, this cycle is not present in any single bundle.<br />
<br />
document<br />
prefix ex <http://example.org/><br />
<br />
bundle ex:b1<br />
entity(ex:e1)<br />
entity(ex:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex:e1,ex:e2)<br />
endBundle<br />
<br />
bundle ex:b2<br />
entity(ex:e1)<br />
entity(ex:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex:e2,ex:e1)<br />
endBundle<br />
endDocument<br />
<br />
<br />
Finally, in the third example, the document is '''not syntactically correct''' since descriptions in bundle <code>ex:b2</code> refer to prefixes <code>ex1</code> and <code>ex2</code>, which are neither defined in bundle <code>ex:b2</code> nor at the toplevel.<br />
<br />
<br />
document<br />
prefix ex <http://example.org/><br />
<br />
bundle ex:b1<br />
prefix ex1 <http://example.org/><br />
<br />
entity(ex1:e1)<br />
entity(ex1:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex1:e1,ex1:e2)<br />
endBundle<br />
<br />
bundle ex:b2<br />
entity(ex1:e1)<br />
entity(ex2:e2)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex2:e2,ex2:e1)<br />
endBundle<br />
endDocument<br />
<br />
=== Can I infer Derivation from Usage and Generation? ===<br />
<br />
No! Consider the trivial contrived example of an activity X that uses 3 input entities, a,b,c, and generates 2 output entities, one with a value of the sum of the first two (d = a+b), and a second with a value of the second two (e = b+c). You could express that:<br />
<br />
used(X, a)<br />
used(X, b)<br />
used(X, c)<br />
wasGeneratedBy(d, X)<br />
wasGeneratedBy(e, X)<br />
<br />
Given our description, we would also assert that:<br />
<br />
wasDerivedFrom(d, a)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(d, b)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(e, b)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(e, c)<br />
<br />
But you could not infer from the Usages and Generations for activity X that:<br />
<br />
wasDerivedFrom(d, c)<br />
<br />
or:<br />
<br />
wasDerivedFrom(e, a)<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Should I use wasInfluencedBy, wasInformedBy, or another relation? ===<br />
<br />
The names of terms in the PROV data model and ontology are chosen as carefully as possible to distinctly represent the concepts intended. However, as a generic model intended to express provenance in many settings, it is impossible to find names that, read as colloquial English, match their use precisely in each setting. The terms wasInfluencedBy and wasInformedBy have been confused, due to the similar meanings of the words 'influence' and 'inform'.<br />
<br />
First, in choosing a relation, please read the definitions rather than relying on the names, as these will help clarify their intended use. In general, we discourage the use of the wasInfluencedBy in expressing provenance unless very little information is known about what you would like to model in the provenance. wasInfluencedBy is a super-property of the relations for common use: used, wasGeneratedBy, wasAssociatedWith, wasInformedBy, etc. These properties relate entities, activities and agents in varying combinations. wasInfluencedBy is present more to help querying provenance data, at times where you do not care about which type of provenance relation is being expressed. wasInformedBy is a more specific relation connecting one activity to another implying "the exchange of some unspecified entity by two activities, one activity using some entity generated by the other", so that one activity was in some way dependent on the other.<br />
<br />
If you find yourself using wasInfluencedBy in your provenance model, it is preferable to check what kinds of element (entities, activities, or agents) you are trying to relate and considering using the more specific relation. For example, if you wish to express the influence of one entity on another, consider using a wasDerivedFrom relation.<br />

<br />
=== Capitalization Conventions in PROV ===<br />
<br />
Various conventions are adopted by various communities, and the group itself had its own set of requirements. Hence, the following conventions were adopted, as a compromise among those sometimes conflicting constraints.<br />
<br />
==== PROV-DM====<br />
<br />
1. In Figure 1 of prov-dm (http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-dm/#prov-core-structures-top) classes are capitalized. <br />
<br />
2. Relations are expressed using a past tense verbal form (was derived from, was generated by, ...)<br />
<br />
3. Figure 5 (http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-dm/#figure-component1) and subsequent figures show that most relations are reified (called Association Class in UML, and see Qualified Pattern in PROV-O), so in compliance with UML convention, binary association and corresponding association classes are capitalized.<br />
<br />
4. Values that the prov:type attribute can take are classes, and therefore are capitalized prov:Bundle, prov:SoftwareAgent, etc<br />
<br />
5. Definitions define terms informally, in English. Terms in definitions are not capitalized (unless they begin the sentence).<br />
<br />
==== PROV-N ====<br />
<br />
1. All expressions start with a predicate using camel case with the first letter as lower case.<br />
<br />
agent(ex:ag)<br />
wasDerivedFrom(ex:e2, ex:e1)<br />
<br />
2. References to types are capitalized:<br />
<br />
entity(ex:b1, [prov:type="prov:Bundle]) <br />
agent(ex:ag1, [prov:type="prov:SoftwareAgent"])<br />
<br />
==== PROV-O ====<br />
<br />
1. Properties use camel case with the first letter as lower case.<br />
<br />
2. Classes are capitalized<br />
<br />
ex:e2 prov:wasDerivedFrom ex:e1.<br />
<br />
ex:e2 a prov:Entity.<br />
<br />
==== PROV-XML ====<br />
<br />
1. Elements use camel case with the first letter as lower case.<br />
<br />
2. Classes in the XML schema are capitalized<br />
<br />
<prov:agent id="ex:ag"><br />
<prov:type="prov:SoftwareAgent"/><br />
</prov:agent><br />
<br />
===How does PROV address the recommendations of the Provenance Incubator Group===<br />
Seven of the eight recommendations defined by the Provenance Incubator are directly addressed by PROV specification: <br />
<br />
* Core concepts (recommendation #1) addressed by Entity, Agent, Person, id, Activity in the PROV data model<br />
* Provenance publishing (recommendation #3) addressed by prov-aq<br />
* Provenance of provenance (recommendation #4) addressed by bundles in prov-dm<br />
* Reproducibility (recommendation #5) addressed by Activity, Usage, Generation, etc in the PROV data model<br />
* Versioning (recommendation #6) addressed by Derivation, Revision, Specialization, Alternate in the PROV data model<br />
* Procedure (recommendation #7) addressed by Activity and Plan in the PROV data model<br />
* Derivation (recommendation #8) addressed by Derivation in the PROV data model<br />
<br />
Recommendation #2 was out of scope for standardization of activity of the working group, but it is believed that it can be supported by PROV extensibility points.</div>Pgrothhttps://www.w3.org/2001/sw/wiki/index.php?title=PROV-Outreach&diff=3642PROV-Outreach2013-04-09T18:06:44Z<p>Pgroth: Created page with "Future home of PROV outreach information so it can be updated"</p>

'''ISO 19115 Lineage'''<br />
<br />
<br />
This is a OWL 2 DL extension of PROV-O that models part of the ISO 19115 UML metadata standard; in particular the concepts relating to lineage. The modelling covers the standard classes prefixed by LI_ ("lineage") and LE_("lineage extended") and provides placeholders for the other classes referenced by them. The intention of this ontology is to enable ISO lineage records (typically presented in XML) to be re-presented according to this ontology and therefore supporting interoperability with other PROV-O provenance records. The design has treated PROV-O as an upper ontology extended with the ISO 19115 concepts, faithfully carrying through the names and structure of the ISO 19115. As a result the design may well differ from both a direct translation of the UML to OWL and also from a fresh attempt to model the ISO 19115 content in PROV-O.<br />

===What is the relationship between Dublin Core and PROV?===<br />
The two specifications are complimentary. Dublin Core contains many provenance related terms many of which are more specific than those provided by PROV. For those terms, there is a mapping from Dublin Core Metadata Terms to PROV provided by a best practice document. If your system understands PROV, it will be able to understand the provenance terms of Dublin Core.<br />

===How can I define a sub activity?===<br />
PROV contains the notion of an activity. Some people have asked how to model sub-activities. We suggest using [http://purl.org/dc/terms/hasPart dcterms:hasPart]<br />
<br />
<br />
===When should I use prov:Agent subtypes?===<br />
If you want to denote that some Person, Organization or Software Agent has responsibility for and activity or entity use the subtypes of<br />
prov:Agent. Otherwise, we suggest that use other ontologies like FOAF.</div>Pgrothhttps://www.w3.org/2001/sw/wiki/index.php?title=PROV&diff=3469PROV2012-09-17T07:42:16Z<p>Pgroth: </p>

<div>= Books on Semantic Web: Intro =<br />
This page contains information on books that are ''strictly on the Semantic Web and Linked Data''. There are, of course, lots of other books on Knowledge Representation, Logic, XML, Databases, etc, that are all relevant for the Semantic Web, but adding these to this list would be counter productive… <br />
<br />
Keeping such list up-to-date is obviously a problem. It can be hoped that the community at large will help maintaining these pages. <br />
<br />
The order in the listings below does not reflect any assessment of the product or tool; simple year and alphanumeric order is used. (Note that some of these books are already announced, but not yet available). Please, keep to this order if you add a book to the list. <br />
<br />
Beyond the obvious sources (Amazon and other listings), the initial set in this list reused publication lists that were published elsewhere, eg, [http://tinyurl.com/ghgvr Nova Spivak’s Listmania list], or the lists maintained by [http://dannyayers.com/2001/09/books.htm Danny Ayers] or [http://captsolo.net/info/blog_a.php/2004/01/22/p356 Uldis Bojārs a.k.a. CaptSolo]. The content of this collection is supposed to be identical to the [http://www.mendeley.com/collections/425812/SemWeb-Books/ Mendeley collection] as maintained by Ivan Herman.<br />
<br />
Thanks to the [http://sites.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/suhl/bizer/bookmashup/index.html book mashup] service set up by Chris Bizer and friends the RDF data (providing such information as Amazon's relevant data) for most of the books is also available. The URI for the RDF description is simply based on the ISBN number.<br />

<div>= Books on Semantic Web: Intro =<br />
This page contains information on books that are ''strictly on the Semantic Web and Linked Data''. There are, of course, lots of other books on Knowledge Representation, Logic, XML, Databases, etc, that are all relevant for the Semantic Web, but adding these to this list would be counter productive… <br />
<br />
Keeping such list up-to-date is obviously a problem. It can be hoped that the community at large will help maintaining these pages. <br />
<br />
The order in the listings below does not reflect any assessment of the product or tool; simple year and alphanumeric order is used. (Note that some of these books are already announced, but not yet available). Please, keep to this order if you add a book to the list. <br />
<br />
Beyond the obvious sources (Amazon and other listings), the initial set in this list reused publication lists that were published elsewhere, eg, [http://tinyurl.com/ghgvr Nova Spivak’s Listmania list], or the lists maintained by [http://dannyayers.com/2001/09/books.htm Danny Ayers] or [http://captsolo.net/info/blog_a.php/2004/01/22/p356 Uldis Bojārs a.k.a. CaptSolo]. The content of this collection is supposed to be identical to the [http://www.mendeley.com/collections/425812/SemWeb-Books/ Mendeley collection] as maintained by Ivan Herman.<br />
<br />
Thanks to the [http://sites.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/suhl/bizer/bookmashup/index.html book mashup] service set up by Chris Bizer and friends the RDF data (providing such information as Amazon's relevant data) for most of the books is also available. The URI for the RDF description is simply based on the ISBN number.<br />

<div>= Books on Semantic Web: Intro =<br />
This page contains information on books that are ''strictly on the Semantic Web and Linked Data''. There are, of course, lots of other books on Knowledge Representation, Logic, XML, Databases, etc, that are all relevant for the Semantic Web, but adding these to this list would be counter productive… <br />
<br />
Keeping such list up-to-date is obviously a problem. It can be hoped that the community at large will help maintaining these pages. <br />
<br />
The order in the listings below does not reflect any assessment of the product or tool; simple year and alphanumeric order is used. (Note that some of these books are already announced, but not yet available). Please, keep to this order if you add a book to the list. <br />
<br />
Beyond the obvious sources (Amazon and other listings), the initial set in this list reused publication lists that were published elsewhere, eg, [http://tinyurl.com/ghgvr Nova Spivak’s Listmania list], or the lists maintained by [http://dannyayers.com/2001/09/books.htm Danny Ayers] or [http://captsolo.net/info/blog_a.php/2004/01/22/p356 Uldis Bojārs a.k.a. CaptSolo]. The content of this collection is supposed to be identical to the [http://www.mendeley.com/collections/425812/SemWeb-Books/ Mendeley collection] as maintained by Ivan Herman.<br />
<br />
Thanks to the [http://sites.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/suhl/bizer/bookmashup/index.html book mashup] service set up by Chris Bizer and friends the RDF data (providing such information as Amazon's relevant data) for most of the books is also available. The URI for the RDF description is simply based on the ISBN number.<br />
