Provenance in Linked Data Integration

Provenance in Linked Data Integration
Provenance in Linked Data Integration
The open world of the (Semantic) Web is a global information space offering diverse materials of disparate qualities, and the opportunity to re-use, aggregate, and integrate these materials in novel ways. The advent of Linked Data brings the potential to expose data on the Web, creating new challenges for data consumers who want to integrate these data. One challenge is the ability, for users, to elicit the reliability and/or the accuracy of the data they come across. In this paper, we describe a light-weight provenance extension for the voiD vocabulary that allows data publishers to add provenance metadata to their datasets. These provenance metadata can be queried by consumers and used as contextual information for integration and inter-operation of information resources on the Semantic Web.

Abstract

The open world of the (Semantic) Web is a global information space offering diverse materials of disparate qualities, and the opportunity to re-use, aggregate, and integrate these materials in novel ways. The advent of Linked Data brings the potential to expose data on the Web, creating new challenges for data consumers who want to integrate these data. One challenge is the ability, for users, to elicit the reliability and/or the accuracy of the data they come across. In this paper, we describe a light-weight provenance extension for the voiD vocabulary that allows data publishers to add provenance metadata to their datasets. These provenance metadata can be queried by consumers and used as contextual information for integration and inter-operation of information resources on the Semantic Web.
