InProv: a Filesystem Provenance Visualization Tool

InProv is a filesystem provenance visualization tool, which displays provenance data with an interactive radial-based tree layout. The tool also utilizes a new time-based hierarchical node grouping method for filesystem provenance data we developed to match the user's mental model and make data exploration more intuitive. In an experiment comparing InProv to a visualization based on the node-link representation, participants using InProv made more accurate assessments of provenance and found InProv to require less mental effort, less physical activity, less work, and to be less stressful to use.
