Development Method of Integrated Information Access Support System based on Multiple Metadata Schemas

在这项研究中，研究人员已经开发了软件工具，支持发现和描述的信息资源的基础上XML和RDF技术。以下段落总结了这项研究的结果。(1)We开发了软件工具，用于开发基于RDF的多语种元数据登记册，并与都柏林核心元数据倡议合作，为都柏林核心元数据要素集开发了一个实验性元数据登记册。元数据注册中心对于元数据应用程序的开发人员具有至关重要的作用。多种语文是登记册的一个重要方面，以促进元数据模式的可用性，并加强全球社区的元数据互操作性。(2)We开发了一种根据信息对象结构编辑元数据的模型和基于该模型的元数据编辑工具。(3)We开发了一个基于RDF的元数据编辑器生成器，该元数据编辑器生成器可以根据元数据模式和应用概要文件轻松地创建元数据编辑器。(4)We实验性地开发了一种描述和发现因特网上信息资源的元数据模式，这对公共图书馆及其用户是有用的。该模式是基于IMS和都柏林核心设计的，并且还设计用于以多种语言描述元数据记录。

In this study, the investigators have developed software tools for supporting discovery and description of information resources based on XML and RDF technologies. The following paragraphs summarize the results of this research.(1)We have developed software tools for developing multilingual metadata registries based on RDF and an experimental metadata registry for the Dublin Core Metadata Element Set collaborating with the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative. Metadata registries have crucial role for developers of metadata applications. Multilinguality is an important aspect for the registries in order to promote usability of metadata schemas and to enhance metadata interoperability in the global community.(2)We have developed a model for editing metadata in accordance with the structure of information objects and a metadata editing tool based on the model.(3)We have developed a metadata editor generator based on RDF.The metadata editor generator is designed to easily create metadata editors in accordance with metadata schemas and application profiles.(4)We have experimentally developed a metadata schema for description and discovery of the information resources on the Internet which are useful for public libraries and their users. The schema is designed based both on IMS and Dublin Core and also designed for describing a metadata record in multiple languages.
