A RDF-based digital library system
نویسنده
چکیده
This article first introduces the needs for a true interoperability environment that allows information and its context can be transfer across domains and applications. Then it describes an approach to build a RDF-based digital library system at the University of Arizona Libraries. The system architecture consists of a storage layer, a metadata management and semantic layer, a common service layer and an application layer. The system is an artifact of the RDF model and also uses an RDF database to facilitate internal management of information resources. The article presents background for a journal delivery project and reports the implementation of the journal application using Java Servlet technology. Issues about metadata management such as various metadata formats for specific communities, and MARC to DC mapping are discussed.
