Integrating Use History as a Context for Dynamically Updated Metadata

Pages 129-154
Published online: 19 Dec 2011
 

The use of metadata, though popular and growing, has more potential. A series of focus groups identified properties of data that user groups would like to have, such as the history of an object's use in their information needs as well as capturing expressions of values in their work contexts. Together, these are labeled “use-context metadata.” Consequently, 3 major issues emerged and are expressed as a set model, architecture, and XML schema. These issues reflect changes in system users’ sense of role with the data, how work flow may be affected by integrating use-context metadata, and some computational issues, such as a single integrative metadata schema, successfully integrate administrative, descriptive, and use-context metadata.
