Goals 1. Obtain guidance on design features covering all aspects of the OAIS model: Ingest—receipt and verification of records; Archival Storage—secure storage of records; Data Management—secure management of records; Administration—management of internal and external relations; Preservation—management of record integrity and security over time; and Access—provision of records in response to user queries.
2. Particular areas of concern: Management issues
- How would the system be administered?
- How can depositors be incentivized?
- How would the system be sustainably funded?
- What intellectual property policies need to be put into place?
System architecture issues
- What is the role for bona fide data federation/integration technology?
- What is the (meaning of and) need for a trusted repository?
- What is the role of distributed/grid storage?
User interface and interoperability issues
- How to synchronize ingestion with journal publication and 3rd-part database deposition?
- How to enable harvesting of data by 3rd-parties (e.g. OAI-MHP)?
- What should be the functionality of the interface to the centralized registry?
- What metadata is required an how to generate it (Dublin Core, DDI-lite, EML, standards imposed by specialized repositories)?
