Abstract
Provenance refers to the past processes that brought about a given (version of an) object, item or
entity. By knowing the provenance of data, users can often better understand, trust, reproduce,
and validate it. A provenance-aware application has the functionality to answer questions regard-
ing the provenance of the data it produces, by using documentation of past processes. PrIMe is a
software engineering technique for adapting application designs to enable them to interact with a
provenance middleware layer, thereby making them provenance-aware. In this article, we specify
the steps involved in applying PrIMe, analyse its effectiveness, and illustrate its use with two case
studies, in bioinformatics and medicine.
