DC2AP: A Dublin Core Application Profile to Analysis Patterns
نویسندگان
چکیده
Analysis patterns are reusable computational artifacts, aimed at the analysis stage of the process of software development. Although the analysis patterns can facilitate the work of analysts and programmers adding value through reuse of proven useful and tested ideas, the access to them is still very poor because of the way they are usually described and made available. In order to reduce these deficiencies, supporting cataloging and encouraging the reuse of analysis patterns, it was proposed the Analysis Patterns Reuse Infrastructure (APRI). This infrastructure comprises a repository of analysis patterns documented through a specific metadata profile and accessed via web services. Based on the proposal of APRI, this article presents the specific metadata profile to the documentation of analysis patterns called Dublin Core Application Profile to Analysis Patterns (DC2AP). KeywordsAnalysis Patterns; Reuse; Metadata Standards; Dublin Core.

DC2AP Metadata Editor: A Metadata Editor for an Analysis Pattern Reuse Infrastructure
The software development process often encounters obstacles to reuse analysis patterns. Many designers do not have access to these computational artifacts by the difficulty in finding them, since the ways in which analysis patterns are documented are often precarious. The lack of both a computational tool which supports the analysis patterns documentation process and a digital repository to sto...
متن کاملDC2DP: A Dublin Core Application Profile to Design Patterns
Design patterns describe reusable solutions to existing problems in object-oriented software development. Design patterns are mostly documented in written form in books and scientific papers, which hinders processing them via computer, their diffusion, and their broader reuse. They can also be found on the internet, though documented with little detail, which makes it hard to understand and con...
متن کاملEvolution of an Application Profile: Advancing Metadata Best Practices through the Dryad Data Repository
Dryad is a general-purpose curated repository for data underlying scholarly publications. Dryad’s metadata framework is supported by a Dublin Core Application Profile (DCAP, hereafter referred to as application profile). This paper examines the evolution of Dryad’s application profile, which has been revised over time, in an operational system, serving day-to-day needs of stakeholders. We model...
متن کاملFRBR: A Generalized Approach to Dublin Core Application Profiles
According to the Singapore Framework, any development of a Dublin Core Application Profile (DCAP) has to include the creation of a domain model. DC Scholarly Works Application Profile (SWAP) was the first one explicitly using Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) model in creating its domain model. FRBR has recently been extended with Functional Requirements for Authority Dat...

Metadata production for research datasets is not a trivial problem. Standardized descriptors are convenient for interoperability, but each area requires specific descriptors in order to guarantee metadata comprehensiveness and accuracy. In this paper, we report on an ongoing research data management experience at the University of Porto (U. Porto), which led to the proposal of a domain-specific...
