PROV-DM is the conceptual data model that forms a basis for the W3C provenance (PROV) family of specifications. It defines a concepts for expressing provenance information enabling interchange. This document introduces an XML schema for the PROV data model (PROV-DM), allowing instances of the PROV data model to be serialized in XML. >> >> The PROV Document Overview describes the overall state of PROV, and should be read before other PROV documents. >> >> SOTD: http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/prov/raw-file/default/xml/releases/WD-prov-xml-20121211/Overview.html#sotd >> >> (3) prov-dc: Dublin Core to PROV Mapping >> >> Staged draft: http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/prov/raw-file/default/dc-note/releases/WD-prov-dc-20121211/Overview.html >> >> Short name: prov-dc >> >> Group resolution to publish: http://www.w3.org/2011/prov/meeting/2012-11-29#resolution_4 >> >> Planned publication date: 11 December 2012 >> >> Abstract: "This document provides a mapping between the PROV-O OWL2 ontology [PROV-O] and the Dublin Core Terms Vocabulary [DCTERMS].

Bundles, defined in [PROV-DM] as sets of provenance descriptions, were introduced in PROV as the mechanism by which provenance of provenance can be expressed. Bundles, whose validity is established independently of each other [PROV-CONSTRAINTS], are essentially independent of each other, acting as islands of provenance descriptions. >> >> In applications where provenance is created by multiple parties over time, it is useful for provenance descriptions created by one party to link to provenance descriptions created by another party. Such a mechanism would allow the "stitching" of provenance descriptions together. Given that provenance descriptions are expected to be contained in bundles, this would require a capability to link entity descriptions across bundles. To address this requirement, this document introduces a relation Mention allowing an entity description to be linked to another entity description occurring in another bundle. >> >> The PROV Document Overview describes the overall state of PROV, and should be read before other PROV documents. >> >> SOTD: http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/prov/raw-file/default/links/releases/WD-prov-links-20121211/Overview.html#sotd >> >> -- >> Professor Luc Moreau >> Electronics and Computer Science tel: +44 23 8059 4487 >> University of Southampton fax: +44 23 8059 2865 >> Southampton SO17 1BJ email: >> l.moreau@ecs.soton.ac.uk >> >> United Kingdom >> http://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~lavm >> >> >> > > > ---- Ivan Herman, W3C Semantic Web Activity Lead Home: http://www.w3.org/People/Ivan/ mobile: +31-641044153 FOAF: http://www.ivan-herman.net/foaf.rdf
