-PROV-DM, the PROV data model, is a data model for provenance that describes the entities, people and activities involved in producing a piece of data or thing. PROV-DM is structured in six components, dealing with: (1) entities and activities, and the time at which they were created, used, or ended; (2) agents bearing responsibility for entities that were generated and actities that happened; (3) derivations between entities; (4) properties that link entities that refer to a same thing; (5) collections of entities, whose provenance can itself be tracked; (6) a simple annotation mechanism.

 To provide examples of the PROV data model, the PROV notation (PROV-N) is introduced: aimed at human consumption, PROV-N allows serializations of PROV-DM
 instances to be created in a compact manner. PROV-N facilitates the
