Danius Michaelides StatJR eBook system http://www.bristol.ac.uk/cmm/software/statjr/index.html The StatJR is a statistical modelling software package that is designed to be open and extensible. Its target audience is researchers in the social sciences and there is a strong pedagogical aspect to the software via the eBook interface. This interface makes heavy use of Prov to represent interactions and computation that occur as a user reads eBooks. Prov is also used to drive some of the functionality of the system such as cacheing executions and allowing the user to navigate to past versions of the eBook. The system is described in our paper in IPAW2012 - "DEEP: A Provenance-Aware Executable Document System".
Michael Jewell PoN http://tina.ecs.soton.ac.uk/djangopon/ PoN is a web application for collecting, organizing and browsing archeological research data and notes. The web application can be accessed through both computers and smart phones. All versions of artefacts are retained, allowing users to see how interpretations have developed.

PoN has been developed as part of the PATINA project, which aims to revolutionise the design of technologies for supporting research. The PATINA project was awarded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) through the RCUK Digital Economy programme.
Daniel Garijo WingsProvenanceExport https://github.com/dgarijo/WingsProvenanceExport Provenance export for the Wings workflow system, using the OPMW vocabulary. OPMW extends PROV core concepts to represent scientific workflows. More information in :http://www.opmw.org/node/8

Input: owl ontologies and ttl files used to specify templates and summary of traces, respectively. Output: 2 files: one in PROV and one in OPM.

The application generates provenance. It does not consume it.
Stian Soiland-Reyes Taverna https://github.com/wf4ever/taverna-prov/ Plugin for Taverna workflow system for exporting workflow runs as PROV RDF. Provenance data includes information about start/stop of individual activities in a workflow definition, the workflow as a whole, and any nested workflows. Data items (entities) are identified as used and generated by the different steps.

The RDF is using the vocabularies PROV-O, wfprov and a customization of the two called tavernaprov (see separate vocabulary registration), saved as a single Turtle file together with file representations of input, output and intermediate values.
Trung Dong Huynh CollabMap http://www.collabmap.org/ CollabMap is a platform designed for crowdsourcing the task of identifying building evacuation routes to a large number of users, by offering them freely available data, such as satellite imagery (e.g. Google Maps), panoramic views (e.g. Google Streetview) and building shapes to carry out this task. The application tracks the provenance of its users for quality verification purposes.
Clément Caron WebLab-PROV http://weblab-project.org/index.php?title=WebLab-PROV Application of provenance on the WebLab platform, using the PROV ontology.

Hook Hua Provenance for Earth Science tbd Extends PROV-O with a provenance representation for use in NASA's Earth Science Data Systems. Also assessing overlap of terms in ISO 19115-* Lineage.
Eric Stephan Provenance Environment (ProvEn) Services Coming soon ProvEn Services enable and facilitate scientific teams to publish, share, link, and discover knowledge about their scientific research results. In science, provenance is produced in many different manual and automated ways and is highly expressive. Scientific teams producing results need a means to provide a composite origin story of the dataset to future consumers while maintaining privacy. Proven Services provides Extract Translate Load services for users to provide native sources of provenance to build a composite history. It relies on PROV-O, Dublin Core and other foundational ontologies so that diverse scientific knowledge can be cross referenced.
Amir Sezavar Keshavarz Annotation Inference Framework http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/ask2g10/prov/ Annotation inference is a form of inference, that given a provenance graph with some annotations, infers new annotations for the same graph. Annotation is introduced as a generic mechanism to enable users to attach any information to the elements of a provenance graph for domain specific interpretation of provenance of data. This framework can be instantiated based on various needs.
Simon Miles PROVoKing https://sites.google.com/site/provokinglibrary/ A general Java library for supporting the use of W3C PROV in Java applications.
Olaf Hartig Triplify http://triplify.org/ Triplify is a small plugin for Web applications, which reveals the semantic structures encoded in relational databases by making database content available as Linked Data. The customizable metadata component that -by default- adds some provenance information to the published data, is documented here: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/trdf/index.php?title=Triplify_Metadata_Extension
Paolo Missier Prov-gen https://github.com/PaoloMissier/ProvToolbox/tree/master/prov-gen a simple generator that produces a large PROV instance from a seed PROV instance, which can be defined using PROV-N or interactively through a simple GUI.
The generated PROV instance is encoded as PROV-N.
This is described in a M.Sc. dissertation: https://github.com/PaoloMissier/ProvToolbox/blob/master/prov-gen/WilliamMartin-MSc-Dissertation.pdf
Edoardo Pignotti OBIAMA (Ontology-Based Integrated Action Modelling Arena https://github.com/garypolhill/obiama A prototype discrete-event simulation environment that represents the state and structure of the model at any one time using OWL ontologies. OBIAMA is capable of generating provenance about actions performed by agents in a simulation model using PROV-O.
Jacco van Ossenbruggen Amalgame http://semanticweb.cs.vu.nl/amalgame/ Amalgame is a tool for finding, evaluating and managing vocabulary alignments interactively. Because the process is interactive, we need PROV to record exactly what workflow has been executed to be able to interpret the results later.
Olaf Hartig D2R Server http://d2rq.org/d2r-server D2R Server is a tool for publishing relational databases on the Semantic Web. It enables RDF and HTML browsers to navigate the content of the database, and allows querying the database using the SPARQL query language.

Satya Sahoo Semantic Proteomics Dashboard (SemPoD) http://physiomimi.case.edu/sempod/index.php/Main_Page The SemPoD platform, currently in use at the Case Center for Proteomics and Bioinformatics (CPB), extends the PROV Ontology (PROV-O) to support provenance–aware querying of 1153 mass-spectrometry experiments from 20 different projects. SemPoD consists of three components: Ontology-driven Visual Query Composer, Result Explorer, and Query Manager. SemPoD includes a dynamic query composition interface, which automatically updates the components of the query interface based on previous user selections and efficiently prunes the result set using a “smart filtering” approach based on the provenance of the results.

Mohamed Morsey DeFacto http://defacto.aksw.org DeFacto (Deep Fact Validation) is an algorithm for validating statements by finding confirming sources for it on the web. It takes a statement (such as “Jamaica Inn was directed by Alfred Hitchcock”) as input and then tries to find evidence for the truth of that statement by searching for information in the web.
Chris Baillie Quality Assessment Framework https://github.com/cbaillie/QualityAssessmentFramework This framework enables quality assessment of a given (RDF) entity based on user-defined requirements. Provenance described using the PROV-O ontology can be included as part of the quality requirements rules which are described using SPIN-SPARQL rules. At present quality requirements are based on the Data Quality Management ontology (http://semwebquality.org/dqm-vocabulary/v1/dqm). This framework can capture the provenance of the quality assesment process using PROV-O so that future quality assessments can make decisions about re-using existing quality scores.
Stephan Zednik Global Change Information System - Information Model and Semantic Application Prototypes http://tw.rpi.edu/web/project/gcis-imsap The Tetherless World Constellation (TWC) at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) proposes to facilitate the vocabulary and ontology development within the context of the overall development of semantic prototypes for the National Climate Assessment (NCA) portals using a combination of environmental inter-agency collaborations in a use-case focused workshop setting, information modeling, and software developments and deployments. The prototypes are intended to provide search and browse options that inspire confidence that all relevant information has been found; data providers will be citable with detailed provenance generation. Expected deliverables are: information models, vocabulary and ontology services for vetted climate assessment settings, and search/ browse prototypes.
Landong Zuo OpenUp Prov TSO's implementation of PROV provides a object-oriented model for non-semantic developers to generate Provenance RDF in compliance with PROV specification.

The Java-based tool has an integrated Apache Jena 2.7.2 to support RDF serialisation. It can have a triple-store backend, where provenance trail can be published in a progressive manner.

To do list: digital signature of provenance, PROV validation
Tom De Nies APROVeD: Automatic Provenance Derivation http://users.ugent.be/~tdenies/APROVeD/ In this project, we develop a new approach for automatic derivation of provenance, at multiple levels of granularity. To accomplish this, we detect entity derivations, relying on clustering algorithms, linked data and semantic similarity. The resulting derivations are structured in compliance with the Provenance Data Model (PROV-DM). While the proposed approach is purposely kept general, allowing adaptation in many use cases, we provide an implementation for one of these use cases, namely discovering the sources of news articles.
Rinke Hoekstra Raw2LD http://github.com/Data2Semantics/raw2ld Conversion scripts for converting Adverse Events reports to RDF. Uses PROV to describe a provenance trail of all conversion steps
Paolo Missier PROV-N to Neo4J DB mapping https://github.com/PaoloMissier/PROV_neo4j a simple Java program to upload a PROV-N encoded PROV instance into a Neo4J database.
This core implementation only covers a few basic relations. More should be added.

Built on the older 0.0.1-SNAPSHOT from ProvToolbox (see in the implementation section). Needs updating.
As this was part of a grad student project in 2012, fresh resources are needed to upgrade + complete the implementation.
Peter Slaughter Earth System Science Server http://es3.eri.ucsb.edu The Earth System Science Server (ES3) is a software environment for data-intensive Earth science. ES3 has unique capabilities for automatically and transparently capturing, managing and reconstructing the provenance of arbitrary, unmodified computational sequences.
David Corsar prov-api https://github.com/dcorsar/prov-api/ Java API for creating and manipulating provenance graphs. The API currently only implements the PROV core terms. We have two implementations of the API: one using Jena and one based on SPARQL v1.1. The Jena implementation supports building and querying a provenance model using an in memory ontology model. The SPARQL implementation builds a provenance graph by generating a series of SPARQL updates, which can then be used against an appropriate resource (e.g. Jena model, SPARQL v1.1 endpoint); querying is performed by generating SPARQL queries which are executed using a provided query engine.
Edoardo Pignotti Policy Reasoning Framework https://github.com/epignotti/PolicyReasoner A policy reasoning framework based on OWL and the SPIN-SPARQL reasoner. This framework infers the provenance of the policy reasoning process using SPARQL rules. The inferred provenance is represented using PROV-O.
David Corsar Informed Rural Passenger Information Infrastructure http://www.dotrural.ac.uk/irp/index.php?page=software As part of the Informed Rural Passenger project, we are developing a real time passenger information system supported by a framework of web services that integrate and use data from various sources (the crowd, open data providers, etc.). Prov-O is used to capture the provenance of various entities within the framework, for the purpose of supporting assessments of data quality and trustworthiness; see http://www.dotrural.ac.uk/irp/index.php?page=software for more details.
Peer Brauer PubFlow Provenance Archive www.pubflow.de/en/provenanceArchive The PubFlow provenance archive is used to store the provenance information collected by the PubFlow research data publication framework. PubFlow is a framework to transfer research data from a local repository to public available archives. Whenever PubFlow works on the research data the corresponding provenance information is collected and stored in the provenance archive.
Trung Dong Huynh PROV Python library http://pypi.python.org/pypi/prov The library provides an implementation of the PROV Data Model in Python. It contains a number of sub-modules:
- prov.model: In-memory classes for PROV assertions, JSON serialisation and deserialisation, PROV-N serialisation.

It supports the serialisation and deserialisation of PROV documents containing these constructs, currently to/from RDF only. Bundles are serialised only as typed entities, not as named graphs or similar, as PROV-O does not dictate how to do this. Example code is provided producing and consuming the provenance data from PROV Primer, and a separate example illustrating the remaining concepts.

Here, entities are assertions and retractions in the ontology of the model’s state (whether expressed as settings of objects’ instance variables or as facts in a fact-base in a declarative model). Activities are rules, actions, methods and simulation steps that change the state, and agents are software entities performing the activities within the model. Agent : Agents in the model are software entities that are responsible for a change in the model’s state. In OBIAMA, all actions must be associated with an agent.

Activity : There are two subclasses of activity. One sub- class is an Action e.g. model initialisation, the other is assertion or retraction which describe the process of asserting or retracting OWL axioms in the model’s state.

Entity : OWL Axioms in the model state ontology.

wasGeneratedBy : Assertions generate OWL Axioms.

used : Retractions use the retracted Axiom.

wasAttributedTo : Axioms are attributed to the Agent that caused the change.

wasAssociatedWith : Agents are associated with the Actions that they perform.

wasInformedBy : Inferences between assertions and retractions based on the Action performed by an Agent.

wasDerivedFrom : Axioms were derived from other axioms if the Actions used them.

We argue that provenance should be an important part of this context as it can provide information about data sources, the method used in data creation, and how the data has transformed over time - including who had access to the data, who processed it, and how the data was previously assessed. Similarly, provenance has been identified as a key component in enabling data re-use and so capturing the provenance of previous quality assessment is essential if agents are to make decisions about quality score re-use.

The rationale for read/write support instead of just read support is because the application both generates and consumes provenance. Provenance is generated from the content, and the original provenance, specified in PROV-N or PROV-JSON is consumed to serve as ground truth to measure the precision of the approach.
