This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Second International Provenance and Annotation Workshop, IPAW 2008, held in Salt Lake City, UT, USA, in June 2007. The 14 revised full papers and 15 revised short and demo papers presented together with 2 keynote lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from 40 submissions. The paper are organized in topical sections on provenance: models and querying; provenance: visualization, failures, identity; provenance and workflows; provenance for streams and collaboration; and applications.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Provenance and Annotation Workshop, IPAW 2016, held in McLean, VA, USA, in June 2016. The 12 revised full papers, 14 poster papers, and 2 demonstration papers presentedwere carefully reviewed and selected from 54 submissions. The papers feature state-of-the-art research and practice around the automatic capture, representation, and use of provenance. They are organized in topical sections on provenance capture, provenance analysis and visualization, and provenance models and applications.

The 7 revised full papers, 11 revised medium-length papers, 6 revised short, and 7 demo papers presented together with 10 poster/abstract papers describing late-breaking work were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. Provenance has been recognized to be important in a wide range of areas including databases, workflows, knowledge representation and reasoning, and digital libraries. Thus, many disciplines have proposed a wide range of provenance models, techniques, and infrastructure for encoding and using provenance. The papers investigate many facets of data provenance, process documentation, data derivation, and data annotation.

This book constitutes the revised selected papers of the 5th International Provenance and Annotation Workshop, IPAW 2014, held in Cologne, Germany in June 2014. The 14 long papers, 20 short papers and 4 extended abstracts presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 53 submissions. The papers include tools that enable provenance capture from software compilers, from web publications and from scripts, using existing audit logs and employing both static and dynamic instrumentation.

This book constitutes the revised selected papers of the 4th International Provenance and Annotation Workshop, IPAW 2012, held in Santa Barbara, CA, USA, in June 2012. The 14 full papers, 4 demo papers and 12 poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 49 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on documents databases; the Web; reconstruction; science applications; and demonstrations.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Provenance and Annotation Workshop, IPAW 2018, held in London, UK, in July 2018. The 12 revised full papers, 19 poster papers, and 2 demonstration papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 50 submissions. The papers feature a variety of provenance-related topics ranging from the capture and inference of provenance to its use and application.They are organized in topical sections on reproducibility; modeling, simulating and capturing provenance; PROV extensions; scientific workflows; applications; and system demonstrations.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 8th and 9th International Provenance and Annotation Workshop, IPAW 2020 and IPAW 2021 which were held as part of ProvenanceWeek in 2020 and 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, PropvenanceWeek 2020 was held as a 1-day virtual event with brief teaser talks on June 22, 2020. In 2021, the conference was held virtually during July 19-22, 2021. The 11 full papers and 12 posters and system demonstrations included in these proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 31 submissions. They were organized in the following topical sections: provenance capture and representation; security; provenance types, inference, queries and summarization; reliability and trustworthiness; joint IPAW/TaPP poster and demonstration session.
