Abstract

We present a system for automatically generating and presenting provenance narratives from World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) compliant provenance records. The interactive narrative visualisation produced allows an analyst or decision maker to explore complex provenance information in a simple, engaging and intuitive manner. Our approach provides a summarised view of the provenance narrative, that can additionally be expanded, collapsed and explored to provide varying levels of detail to the user. Expansion information provides further context to help aid understanding and gain insight. The analyst or decision maker can use the narrative visualisation to explore how: a particular result was achieved; the influence of any particular agent on the result; and the flow-on effects of a particular change in input, constraint or processing that has taken place.
