MANAGEMENT OF A HISTORY OF A MEETING

摘要

Provenance techniques are disclosed for managing a history of a meeting. For example, a method for managing a history associated with a meeting comprises the following steps. Data associated with the meeting is collected. Provenance data is generated based on at least a portion of the collected data, wherein the provenance data is indicative of a lineage of one or more data items. A provenance graph is generated that defines a visual representation of the generated provenance data, wherein graph elements comprise one or more nodes and one or more edges between nodes, wherein nodes of the graph represent records associated with the collected data and edges of the graph represent relations between the records. One or more applications are associated with at least one graph element and are selectable to invoke functionality. The generated provenance graph is stored in a repository for use in analyzing the meeting.

主权项

1. An article of manufacture for managing a history associated with a meeting, the article comprising a computer readable storage medium including program code which when executed by a computer performs the steps of:
collecting data associated with the meeting; generating provenance data based on at least a portion of the collected data, wherein the provenance data is indicative of a lineage of one or more data items; generating a provenance graph that defines a visual representation of the generated provenance data, wherein graph elements comprise one or more nodes and one or more edges between nodes, wherein nodes of the graph represent records associated with the collected data and edges of the graph represent relations between the records; associating one or more applications with at least one graph element, wherein the one or more applications are selectable to invoke functionality; and storing the generated provenance graph in a repository for use in analyzing the meeting; wherein generating the provenance data based on the collected data comprises mapping the collected data onto a generic data model previously created to represent the meeting; wherein the generic data model comprises a plurality of provenance record types representing the nodes of the graph; and wherein a plurality of the nodes share a common data structure and common attributes.
