On Monday I am speaking as part of a meeting on [Use Cases for
Provenance](http://www.nesc.ac.uk/esi/events/983/)
([Programme](http://wiki.esi.ac.uk/UseCasesForProvenanceWorkshop)),
which has a lot of interesting talks scheduled. I appear to be last. I
am not sure whether that means I am the comedy closer or the pre-dinner
entertainment. This may, however, be as a result of the title I chose:

> *In your worst nightmares: How experimental scientists are doing
> provenance for themselves*

> On the whole experimental scientists, particularly those working in
> traditional, small research groups, have little knowledge of, or
> interest in, the issues surrounding provenance and data curation.
> There is however an emerging and evolving community of practice
> developing the use of the tools and social conventions related to the
> broad set of web based resources that can be characterised as "Web
> 2.0". This approach emphasises social, rather than technical, means of
> enforcing citation and attribution practice, as well as maintaining
> provenance. I will give examples of how this approach has been
> applied, and discuss the emerging social conventions of this community
> from the perspective of an insider.

The meeting will be webcast (link should be available from
[here](http://www.nesc.ac.uk/esi/events/983/)) and my slides will with
any luck be up at least a few minutes before my talk [in the usual
place](http://www.slideshare.net/cameronneylon).
