There exist no prescriptive requirement on the nature of plans, their representation, the actions or steps they consist of, or their intended goals. Since plans may evolve over time, it may become necessary to track their provenance, so plans themselves are entities. Representing the plan explicitly in the provenance can be useful for various tasks: for example, to validate the execution as represented in the provenance record, to manage expectation failures, or to provide explanations.
Instances of prov:Plan can have the following properties:
| PROPERTY | TYPE | DESCRIPTION | RANGE |
|---|---|---|---|
| From class prov:Entity | |||
| prov:specializationOf | owl:ObjectProperty | prov:Entity | |
| prov:wasRevisionOf | owl:ObjectProperty | A revision is a derivation that revises an entity into a revised version. | prov:Entity |
| prov:generatedAtTime | owl:DatatypeProperty | The time at which an entity was completely created and is available for use. | xsd:dateTime |
| prov:invalidatedAtTime | owl:DatatypeProperty | The time at which an entity was invalidated (i.e., no longer usable). | xsd:dateTime |
| prov:value | owl:DatatypeProperty | owl:Thing | |
| prov:alternateOf | owl:ObjectProperty | prov:Entity | |
| prov:hadPrimarySource | owl:ObjectProperty | prov:Entity | |
| prov:qualifiedAttribution | owl:ObjectProperty | If this Entity prov:wasAttributedTo Agent :ag, then it can qualify how it was influenced using prov:qualifiedAttribution [ a prov:Attribution; prov:agent :ag; :foo :bar ]. | prov:Attribution |
| prov:qualifiedDerivation | owl:ObjectProperty | If this Entity prov:wasDerivedFrom Entity :e, then it can qualify how it was derived using prov:qualifiedDerivation [ a prov:Derivation; prov:entity :e; :foo :bar ]. | prov:Derivation |
| prov:qualifiedGeneration | owl:ObjectProperty | If this Activity prov:generated Entity :e, then it can qualify how it performed the Generation using prov:qualifiedGeneration [ a prov:Generation; prov:entity :e; :foo :bar ]. | prov:Generation |
| prov:qualifiedInvalidation | owl:ObjectProperty | If this Entity prov:wasInvalidatedBy Activity :a, then it can qualify how it was invalidated using prov:qualifiedInvalidation [ a prov:Invalidation; prov:activity :a; :foo :bar ]. | prov:Invalidation |
| prov:qualifiedPrimarySource | owl:ObjectProperty | If this Entity prov:hadPrimarySource Entity :e, then it can qualify how using prov:qualifiedPrimarySource [ a prov:PrimarySource; prov:entity :e; :foo :bar ]. | prov:PrimarySource |
| prov:qualifiedQuotation | owl:ObjectProperty | If this Entity prov:wasQuotedFrom Entity :e, then it can qualify how using prov:qualifiedQuotation [ a prov:Quotation; prov:entity :e; :foo :bar ]. | prov:Quotation |
| prov:qualifiedRevision | owl:ObjectProperty | If this Entity prov:wasRevisionOf Entity :e, then it can qualify how it was revised using prov:qualifiedRevision [ a prov:Revision; prov:entity :e; :foo :bar ]. | prov:Revision |
| prov:wasAttributedTo | owl:ObjectProperty | Attribution is the ascribing of an entity to an agent. | prov:Agent |
| prov:wasDerivedFrom | owl:ObjectProperty | The more specific subproperties of prov:wasDerivedFrom (i.e., prov:wasQuotedFrom, prov:wasRevisionOf, prov:hadPrimarySource) should be used when applicable. | prov:Entity |
| prov:wasGeneratedBy | owl:ObjectProperty | prov:Activity | |
| prov:wasInvalidatedBy | owl:ObjectProperty | prov:Activity | |
| prov:wasQuotedFrom | owl:ObjectProperty | An entity is derived from an original entity by copying, or 'quoting', some or all of it. | prov:Entity |
| From class owl:Thing | |||
| owl:versionInfo | owl:AnnotationProperty | owl:Thing | |
| prov:aq | owl:AnnotationProperty | owl:Thing | |
| prov:category | owl:AnnotationProperty | Classify prov-o terms into three categories, including 'starting-point', 'qualifed', and 'extended'. This classification is used by the prov-o html document to gently introduce prov-o terms to its users. | owl:Thing |
| prov:component | owl:AnnotationProperty | Classify prov-o terms into six components according to prov-dm, including 'agents-responsibility', 'alternate', 'annotations', 'collections', 'derivations', and 'entities-activities'. This classification is used so that readers of prov-o specification can find its correspondence with the prov-dm specification. | owl:Thing |
| prov:constraints | owl:AnnotationProperty | A reference to the principal section of the PROV-CONSTRAINTS document that describes this concept. | owl:Thing |
| prov:definition | owl:AnnotationProperty | A definition quoted from PROV-DM or PROV-CONSTRAINTS that describes the concept expressed with this OWL term. | owl:Thing |
| prov:dm | owl:AnnotationProperty | A reference to the principal section of the PROV-DM document that describes this concept. | owl:Thing |
| prov:editorialNote | owl:AnnotationProperty | A note by the OWL development team about how this term expresses the PROV-DM concept, or how it should be used in context of semantic web or linked data. | owl:Thing |
| prov:editorsDefinition | owl:AnnotationProperty | When the prov-o term does not have a definition drawn from prov-dm, and the prov-o editor provides one. | owl:Thing |
| prov:influenced | owl:ObjectProperty | owl:Thing | |
| prov:inverse | owl:AnnotationProperty | PROV-O does not define all property inverses. The directionalities defined in PROV-O should be given preference over those not defined. However, if users wish to name the inverse of a PROV-O property, the local name given by prov:inverse should be used. | owl:Thing |
| prov:n | owl:AnnotationProperty | A reference to the principal section of the PROV-DM document that describes this concept. | owl:Thing |
| prov:order | owl:AnnotationProperty | The position that this OWL term should be listed within documentation. The scope of the documentation (e.g., among all terms, among terms within a prov:category, among properties applying to a particular class, etc.) is unspecified. | owl:Thing |
| prov:qualifiedForm | owl:AnnotationProperty | This annotation property links a subproperty of prov:wasInfluencedBy with the subclass of prov:Influence and the qualifying property that are used to qualify it. Example annotation: prov:wasGeneratedBy prov:qualifiedForm prov:qualifiedGeneration, prov:Generation . Then this unqualified assertion: :entity1 prov:wasGeneratedBy :activity1 . can be qualified by adding: :entity1 prov:qualifiedGeneration :entity1Gen . :entity1Gen a prov:Generation, prov:Influence; prov:activity :activity1; :customValue 1337 . Note how the value of the unqualified influence (prov:wasGeneratedBy :activity1) is mirrored as the value of the prov:activity (or prov:entity, or prov:agent) property on the influence class. | owl:Thing |
| prov:sharesDefinitionWith | owl:AnnotationProperty | owl:Thing | |
| prov:todo | owl:AnnotationProperty | owl:Thing | |
| prov:unqualifiedForm | owl:AnnotationProperty | Classes and properties used to qualify relationships are annotated with prov:unqualifiedForm to indicate the property used to assert an unqualified provenance relation. | owl:Thing |
