Tackling Innovation
From Content to Objects structure - articles, collected in volumes, issues, topics, series, supplementary material etc.
digital objects “folder objects” e.g. journal, container
“content-holder objects” e.g. article, data-container
“content objects” e.g. xml, pdf, html, multimedia
“specification objects” e.g. “oai:SetDDC004” for OAI-PMH
content - text, bitmap/vector graphics, movies, applets
relationships: extensive use of resource index
DiPP Content Model #1
DiPP Content Model #2
Metadata for journal & article objects
