Issues in Building Practical Provenance Systems

The importance of maintaining provenance has been widely recognized, particularly with respect to highly-manipulated data. However, there are few deployed databases that provide provenance information with their data. We have constructed a database of protein interactions (MiMI), which is heavily used by biomedical scientists, by manipulating and integrating data from several popular biological...
