Tracking the provenance of an RDF graph requires finding all supporting sources and rejecting all irrelevant ones, but neither RDF document nor triple is appropriate. Therefore, we approach this goal using lossless decomposition of RDF graph at RDF molecule granularity, which is the finest and lossless sub-graph of an RDF graph. We also implements three decomposition strategies a prototype RDF graph provenance service covering 50M real world triples collected by Swoogle.
