A Overview of Standards and Technologies in Identification of Archival Information Lou Reich CSC/NASA AWIICS 13-Oct-99
Types of Identification • Attributes • Relational database, catalogs, finding aids • Location • URL, X.500,PURL • Names • Local • Examples: UNIX file names • Global • URN, DOI,Handles • Content Identifiers • DOI, ISBN
Types of Identifiers in OAIS RM • Content Identifiers • Found in Descriptive Data • Used by Access Aids to search or order • Examples DOI, ISBN, URN • Archive Information Package Identifiers • Identification of AIP within the archive • 1:N relationship with Content Identifiers • Storage Identifiers • Location(s) within Archival Storage System • N:1 relationship with AIP
OAIS Naming issues (1 of 2) • Federation Issues • Scope of AIP • Globally Unique • Multiple copies in Federated Archives • Versioning • Persistence Issues • Archives close and APIs are dispersed • Technology shifts in Resolution technology • Versioning
OAIS Naming Issues (2 of 2) • Archival Storage /Ingest Issues • Is the AIPID derivable from the Content Objects • Data Management Issues • Length of Identifier • Duplicate Identification • Access Issues • Can parameters to customization services be passed in Content Ids/AIPIDs • Payment/Security
Current Identification Standards • Object Management Group • Interoperable Name Service • Patient Identification Service • IETF Internet efforts • Uniform Resource Identifiers • Uniform Resource Locators • Uniform Resource Names • CNRI Handles,PURL • Uniform Resource Characteristics • Content • Digital Object Identifier (DOI) • ISBN
PIDS Registration/Naming Authorities Fully qualified Name Registration authority<del>NamingEntity<del>Local Name
Work Group Activities • Discuss current identification scheme • Look at Archival Systems Requirements • C. Lynch’s five questions on Identification schemes • Discuss any known research efforts • Develop recommendations
