Abstract: 
One of the main problems in data minimization is the determination of the relevant data set. Combining the Chase — a universal tool for transforming databases — and data provenance, a (anonymized) minimal sub-database of an original data set can be calculated. To ensure reproducibility, the evaluations performed on the original data set must be feasible on the sub-database, too. For this, we extend the Chase&Backchase with additional why-provenance to handle lost attribute values, null tuples, and duplicates occurring during the query evaluation and its inversion. I am pleased to present you the ProSA pipeline, which describes a method of data minimization using the Chase&Backchase extended with additional provenance.
