Building Trust in Information: Perspectives on the Frontiers of Provenance (Springer Proceedings in Business and Economics)

This book reports on the results of an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary workshop on provenance that brought together researchers and practitioners from different areas such as archival science, law, information science, computing, forensics and visual analytics that work at the frontiers of new knowledge on provenance. Each of these fields understands the meaning and purpose of representing provenance in subtly different ways. The aim of this book is to create cross-disciplinary bridges of understanding with a view to arriving at a deeper and clearer perspective on the different facets of provenance and how traditional definitions and applications may be enriched and expanded via an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary synthesis. This volume brings together all of these developments, setting out an encompassing vision of provenance to establish a robust framework for expanded provenance theory, standards and technologies that can be used to build trust in financial and other types of information.

本書報告了一個跨學科和多學科的溯源研討會的結果，該研討會匯集了來自不同領域的研究人員和從業人員，包括檔案學、法律、信息科學、計算機、法醫學和視覺分析等，他們在溯源的新知識前沿工作。這些領域中的每一個都以微妙不同的方式理解和表達溯源的意義和目的。本書的目的是建立跨學科的理解橋樑，以深入和清晰地理解溯源的不同方面，並通過跨學科和多學科的綜合來豐富和擴展傳統的定義和應用。本書匯集了所有這些發展，提出了一個全面的溯源視野，建立了一個強大的框架，用於擴展溯源理論、標準和技術，以建立對金融和其他類型信息的信任。
