Table Figure 1 From the research bench

The synthetic lineage reconstruction table

A reported result is easier to review when the input version, operation, key, validation, and downstream use remain visible together.

Reference & Evidence

Source: Author's synthetic lineage table grounded in World Wide Web Consortium (2013) PROV-DM. The provenance vocabulary is source-bounded; all objects, versions, operations, keys, values, and dispositions are illustrative.

Each line is a claim from the register this journal publishes against, resolved from the register at build time.

  • A "Provenance is information about entities, activities, and people involved in producing a piece of data or thing", used to assess its quality, reliability or trustworthiness W3C. (2013). PROV-DM The PROV Data Model captured 2026-09-06 · W3C13-C1
  • A The model is organised in six components, among them "derivations of entities from entities", alongside generation, usage, association and attribution W3C. (2013). PROV-DM The PROV Data Model captured 2026-09-06 · W3C13-C3
  • A Provenance is input to a judgement, not a warrant: information "which can be used to form assessments about its quality, reliability or trustworthiness". It certifies nothing W3C. (2013). PROV-DM The PROV Data Model captured 2026-09-06 · W3C13-C5
  • B Data lineage is a trace from a declared output or decision back through inputs, transformations, joins, filters, aggregations, and versions Author framework grounded in W3C13-C1 to W3C13-C4 · R03-OWN-C1
  • B A lineage record must declare input and output dataset versions, operation, timestamp, owner or process, and the decision or field that consumes the output Author framework · R03-OWN-C3
  • B A snapshot is a time-bounded observation and must not be silently treated as the same thing as an event stream or current table Author data rule · R03-OWN-C4
  • B The synthetic lineage table contains six illustrative edges and no production dataset, customer record, or observed business result Author synthetic object · R03-OWN-C8
  • B A lineage review should preserve the input, operation, output, validation, exception, and downstream-use fields together Author operating framework · R03-OWN-C9

Grades: A, verified against the printed page of the primary source · B, primary source, text layer only · C, authoritative secondary · D, reported.
