Well… Mark,

I could point you to the poster by the title Provenance: Promise and Practice that we gave at AGU a few years ago!

Also, you might want to talk to Donna about the provenance work she has been doing at NSIDC (i.e., what are the issues!) - she’ll be giving an invited talk on that at AGU this year.

I can also point you to the work the Data Conservancy has been doing which includes the ability to ingest provenance (using OAI-ORE extended with PROV-O and other ontologies) and maintain relationships to entities both internal and external to that system (there is one paper on that out).

I have more thoughts if you have specific questions…

I do note that that AGU poster may not be the most current work; but it certainly covers the issues… and could be a good intro (i.e. setting the scene) piece…

Ruth

>> Glad to hear you will join our data provenance workshop! Actually we would like to invite you to give a talk  on the state of art of data provenance or your  work: Provenance: Promise and Practice; or a topic of your choice at relatively high level to kind of set the scene at the beginning of the workshop for what is provenance.   We can allocate 25mins (presentation + question time)  for that.

>>> General Information
>>> This is a half-day workshop, with the conveners Nicholas Car (CSIRO), Andrew Treloar (ANDS), Mingfang Wu (ANDS) and Lesley Wyborn (GA). This workshop will be held at the eResearch Australasia Conference venue (Pullman Melbourne Albert Park) on 27th Oct. 2014 from 1:30pm to 5:00pm. Please  note this is not a registered workshop at the conference, but facilitated by ANDS and held at the conference venue for the convenience of attendees. The workshop is free of charge, and attendance is through invitation only.
>>> Description
>>> Data provenance is becoming increasingly important, especially in the eScience community, where research can be data intensive and often involves complex data transformations  and procedures. In data intensive science, where data producers may configure an instrument or simulation in certain way to collect primary data, or apply certain methodologies and processes to extract, transform and analyse an input data to produce an output data,  the provision of provenance as part of published data (either primary or secondary) is important for determining the quality, the amount of trust that can be placed on the results,  the reproducibility of any result and ultimately the reusability of that data.
>>> 
>>> This workshop aims to: 
>>> 1) bring together data provenance practitioners, developers and researchers to increase our awareness of work currently being done on data provenance around and beyond Australia; 
>>> 2) foster a data provenance forum or community within Australia; and
>>> 3) coordinate contributions to international data provenance activities  such as RD-A data provenance interests group if possible.   
>>> 
>>> Attendees are expected to submit their use cases through this provenance use case capture tool before the workshop; representative use cases will be discussed during the workshop  in order to identify common themes and areas for future work. Attendees are also invited to nominate and discuss real challenges they are facing in the process of capturing, storing and disseminating provenance data.
