I am proud to announce the release of PAV (Provenance, Authoring and Versioning) ontology version 2.3.0.
PAV is a lightweight ontology for tracking Provenance, Authoring and Versioning. PAV specializes the W3C provenance ontology PROV-O in order to describe authorship, curation and digital creation of online resources. Version 2.3 adds further relations for versioning: pav:hasVersion, pav:hasCurrentVersion, pav:hasEarlierVersion and adds subproperty mappings with: prov:alternateOf, prov:specializationOf, prov:generalizationOf, dct:hasVersion Namespace / current version: http://purl.org/pav/ OWL import 2.3: http://purl.org/pav/2.3 Further documentation: http://purl.org/pav/2.3/html Cite as: Paolo Ciccarese, Stian Soiland-Reyes, Khalid Belhajjame, Alasdair JG Gray, Carole Goble, Tim Clark (2013): PAV ontology: provenance, authoring and versioning.
