TOTEM: Trusted Online Technical Environment Metadata - A Long-Term Solution for a Relational Database / RDF Ontologies
نویسندگان
چکیده
For emulation and other preservation actions, metadata is needed to describe the technical environment (operating system, related software libraries, hardware etc.) in which a given file or item of software can be rendered. This paper delineates an enhanced entity attribute relationship model suitable as a basis for a database (relational, object-relational or object-oriented), or for a RDF ontology. This core data model covers the X86, Apple II and Commodore 64 (C64) hardware architectures, as well as games consoles. The model is currently instantiated as a MySQL database with accompanying API, plus a PHP-based browsing system. Data population, and user evaluation are also discussed. The model is extensible over the long term and is compatible with OAIS and PREMIS version 2.

Providing Authentic Long-term Archival Access to Complex Relational Data
We discuss long-term preservation of and access to relational databases. The focus is on national archives and science data archives which have to ingest and integrate data from a broad spectrum of vendor-specific relational database management systems (RDBMS). Furthermore, we present our solution SIARD which analyzes and extracts data and data logic from almost any RDBMS. It enables, to a reas...

متن کاملA Path-based Relational RDF Database
We propose a path-based scheme for storage and retrieval of RDF data using a relational database. The Semantic Web is much anticipated as the nextgeneration web where high-level processing of web resources are enabled by underlying metadata described in RDF format. A typical application of RDF is to describe ontologies or dictionaries, but in such applications, the size of RDF data is large. As...
متن کاملSemiometrics: Applying Ontologies across Large-Scale Digital Libraries
As large-scale digital libraries become more available and complete, not to mention more numerous, it is clear there is a need for services that can draw together and perform inference calculations on the metadata produced. However, the traditional Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) model, while efficiently constructed and optimised for many business structures, does not necessarily ...

Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a standard for representing information that can be identified using a Universal Resource Identifier. In particular, it is intended for representing metadata about Web resources. RDF is being used in numerous application areas, including Life Sciences, Digital Libraries, and Intelligence. The RDF data structure is a directed graph or network. Current solu...
