Applicability of CIDOC CRM in Digital Libraries
نویسندگان
چکیده
CIDOC CRM is an ontology to represent cultural heritage information, especially museum collections. This paper presents the use of CIDOC CRM as an ontology describing a digital-library-originated knowledge base. An application profile is presented with some terms taken from other vocabularies, a few CIDOC classes extensions and a small set of new properties. The application profile has been used to describe a knowledge base containing information about more than 700,000 digital publications from the Polish Digital Libraries Federation, automatically translated from a Dublin Core-based metadata schema. The paper also analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of using CIDOC CRM, and presents some statistics of the resulting digital libraries semantic database.

متن کاملReasoning based on property propagation on CIDOC-CRM and CRMdig based repositories
Reasoning on provenance information and property propagation is of significant importance in e-science since it helps scientists manage derived metadata in order to understand the source of an object, reproduce results of processes and facilitate quality control of results and processes. In this paper we introduce a simple, yet powerful reasoning mechanism based on property propagation along th...
