Resource space view tour mechanism

The Resource Space Model is a new semantic data model for managing various resources. Based on the model, this paper proposes a view mechanism for finding and reusing legacy Resource Spaces according to users’ idiosyncratic interests. It establishes flexible reorganizing mechanism of legacy Resource Spaces to reduce redundant work. As a viewpoint organization strategy, the resource subject tree is proposed as an effective way to discover desirable Resource Space views. A case study is presented to demonstrate the proposed approach.
