PROV Advanced Topics

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

This chapter introduces more advanced concepts in PROV. We cover relationships between core concepts including generalization, usage, and derivations. Following the wine example from vat to special fermentation process to bottle, the chapter explores the PROV mechanisms of alternates and specializations that allow us to describe the same entities at different levels of abstraction. Bundles and plans lead to the introduction of the concept of prospective provenance, provenance of what can and/or will be in future. The reader is encouraged to consider differences in perspective between the Closed World Assumption (CWA) and Open World Assumption (OWA) when documenting provenance.
