13 13  The [[W3C PROV standard>>https://www.w3.org/TR/2013/NOTE-prov-overview-20130430/||rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"]] provides a data model and related tools for provenance interchange on the web. The following diagram shows the three base classes of the PROV data model: Entity, Activity, and Agent. These three classes form the basis for the representation of provenance in the EBRAINS Knowledge Graph: every node in the KG has a type which is a subclass of one of these base classes.

19 19  We present here the current schemas for representing (a) data analysis and (b) simulations in the Knowledge Graph. These schemas will need to be extended to cover neurorobotics simulations, and probably a more explicit representation of pipelines/workflows (the chaining together of multiple analysis / simulation stages) will be needed.
