<h4 id="prov-o-second-working-draft">PROV-O Second Working Draft</h4>
<p>This specification defines the PROV Ontology as the normative representation of the PROV Data Model using the Web Ontology Language (OWL2). Following feedback, the structure of the document has been reorganized to suit a gradual introduction to the terms available in PROV-O, permitting the addition of more elaborate terms as users understand the earlier terms. A cross reference was added and is created directly from the OWL ontology. Examples throughout this document are taken directly from the working group's version control system.

While <a href="#qualifiedUsage" class="qname">prov:qualifiedUsage</a>, <a href="#Usage" class="qname">prov:Usage</a>, and <a href="#entity" class="qname">prov:entity</a> are used to qualify <span class="repeated">prov:used</span> relations, <a href="#qualifiedAssociation" class="qname">prov:qualifiedAssociation</a>, <a href="#Association" class="qname">prov:Association</a>, and <a href="#agent" class="qname">prov:agent</a> are used to qualify <span class="repeated">prov:wasAssociatedWith</span> relations. This pattern applies to the twelve other relations that can be qualified.
