N2 - Like many technological advances, Building Energy Performance Simulation (BEPS) tools face barriers to their adaptation. Stakeholders must be able to trust results-building owners and occupiers want to know how the results will benefit them, while companies require a return in investment through the use of such tools. Furthermore, engineers using such systems should be able to examine their use over time to tune their accuracy. Provenance systems seek to capture information that can be used to fulfill these goals. An application of the W3C PROV-O vocabulary to record typical BEPS processes is described. An interface to support engineers when recording provenance data is then introduced.
