Darwin Core: An Evolving Community-Developed Biodiversity Data Standard
Biodiversity data derive from myriad sources stored in various formats on many distinct hardware and software platforms. An essential step towards understanding global patterns of biodiversity is to provide a standardized view of these heterogeneous data sources to improve interoperability. Fundamental to this advance are definitions of common terms. This paper describes the evolution and devel...
متن کاملDarwin-SW: Darwin Core-based terms for expressing biodiversity data as RDF
Darwin-SW (DSW) is an RDF vocabulary designed to complement the Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG) Darwin Core Standard. DSW is based on a model derived from a community discussion about the relationships among the main Darwin Core classes. DSW creates a new class to accommodate an important aspect of its model that is not currently part of Darwin Core: a class of Tokens, which are forms...
متن کاملLinking multiple biodiversity informatics platforms with Darwin Core Archives
We describe an implementation of the Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A) standard that allows for the exchange of biodiversity information contained within the Scratchpads virtual research environment with external collaborators. Using this single archive file Scratchpad users can expose taxonomies, specimen records, species descriptions and a range of other data to a variety of third-party aggregators...
متن کاملDARWIN: An Approach for Debugging Evolving Programs1

متن کاملL4/Darwin: Evolving UNIX
UNIX has remained a mainstay of modern computing. With its foundations of security, reliability, performance and configurability, UNIX has adapted to and is used in a vast array of environments. While UNIX fosters robustness, modularity and a “smaller is better” philosophy, that scrutiny is generally not applied to the kernel itself. Modern UNIX kernels have large, unwieldy code bases that do n...
