Realising a Federation of Repositories of Reusable Metadata
نویسندگان
چکیده
Semantic assets and the agreements associated with them are essential elements for organisations to understand the meaning of the information they exchange – without them this information would be of little use. In order to facilitate the access of public administrations in Europe to reusable semantic assets, the Interoperability Solutions for European Public Administrations Programme of the European Commission (ISA Programme) has been running for the last 3 years an action on syndicating content from different semantic asset repositories and making it available through a single point of access. In this paper we present the current state of the federation of semantic asset repositories on Joinup, namely a set of online collections of semantic assets maintained by public administrations, standardisation organisations and businesses, which currently counts more than 1500 semantic assets from 21 partner organisations, described using the Asset Description Metadata Schema (ADMS).

Reusable Architectural Decision Model for Model and Metadata Repositories
Models are gaining importance in software development, for instance in the MDD field, as well as in other disciplines such as biology and physics. Hence, tool support is needed to manage these models and metadata about the models. Model repositories support this trend by managing these model artifacts. While setting up model and metadata repositories, architects have to make several fundamental...
متن کاملManaging Broken URLs in Federated Metadata
In a large federation of learning object repositories, learning object locations or learning object URLs in metadata can become out of date when learning objects are moved or deleted. Regular checking of learning object URLs is essential. However, fully checking across a large federation imposes an unsustainable burden on time and resources while negatively impacting networks and repositories. ...

Reusable educational resources became increasingly important for enhancing learning and teaching experiences, particularly in the medical domain where resources are particularly expensive to produce. With respect to this, research has aimed at improving interoperability across educational resources metadata repositories, which led to a fragmented landscape of competing metadata schemas, such as...

The paper deals with the synchronization mechanism among the servers of a federation of distributed repositories for the constant updating of the didactic-scientific material, its properties and its locations. A shared metadata database is the synchronization point of reference and it allows to improve performance in terms of searching and downloading. The proposed federation is meant to deal w...

FeDCOR (Federation of DSpace using CORDRA) is a registry-based federation system for DSpace instances. It is based on the CORDRA model. The first article in this issue of D-Lib Magazine describes the Advanced Distributed Learning-Registry (ADL-R) [1], which is the first operational CORDRA registry, and also includes an introduction to CORDRA. That introduction, or other prior knowledge of the C...
