Benefits of technology

[0041] Using such methods of the present invention provides a method for a user to economically and quickly poll or search created, accepted metadata based on established metadata schema.
[0077] In various computing environments such as the World Wide Web, there will be a need to use metadata from multiple schemas. It is contemplated by the present invention that the convergence platform of the present invention can be characterized as a “semantic web”. Semantic web can be generally defined as an abstract representation of data accessible via the World Wide Web, using standards such as RDF. Such a semantic web is an extension of the current web in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and users to work in cooperation. Such a platform provides a common framework for expressing information so that data can be exchanged between applications without loss of meaning.

Problems solved by technology

Quality control of metadata output is now an important process that the prior art does not fully address.

Training Technology Development (TTD)

[0137] Design and develop an advanced distributed learning (ADL) registry and repository architecture and associated user interfaces to support distributed and federated computing terrorism training repositories.

[0138] The architecture must be Shareable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) 1.3 conformant.

[0139] The architecture must be based on a collection of distributed services with Web interfaces and an open component communications model that is consistent with emerging computing and communication infrastructures.

[0140] The architecture must support: [0141] content identifier, locator, reference, versioning, search and query; [0142] content management, sharing, and delivery; and [0143] digital rights management, information assurance, and security.

[0144] The architecture must provide the capability to federate existing (disparate) SCORM and non-SCORM conformant content repositories.

[0145] The architecture must support content object ...

Metadata Based Semantic Registry System Description and Requirements

[0154] The metadata based semantic registry system (MBSRS) is an enterprise software application and convergence technology that provides content interoperability. MBSRS enables the rapid non-programmatic development along with the deployment of standards-based and domain specific metadata registries. Additionally MBSRS a federated sharable content network architecture. MBSRS further provides customizable user interfaces, business processes, accompanying software codes and communication protocols to facilitate interoperable registration, quality assurance, publishing, search, discovery, packaging, distribution. The architecture yields a highly efficient exchange of information, content and best practices between organizations, systems and people. MBSRS is horizontal market application designed to meet market needs for performance support applications. The diverse usage areas for MBSRS include distributed registry-r...

Building Metadata Schema

[0172] Descriptive framework built accordance with an embodiment of the present invention has metadata schema designed to align with emerging standards for labelling information, including the SCORM, IEEE LOM, and the metadata elements and vocabularies specific to an organization. An example of features of building metadata schema include two items for administration and review functions. The administration feature allows the user to manage user accounts, build the taxonomic structure, create and manage the keywords, using both closed or open vocabulary, integrate performance or learning standards, compose the metadata attributes, view objects associated with specific attributes, and manage the staging database. The review feature allows the Administrators to review metadata records in the a staging area to perform quality control measures.

Abstract

Metadata management convergence platforms, systems, and methods to organize a community of users' data records. More specifically, methods managing metadata records related to content housed in unique, disparate or federated holdings in centralized or distributed environments. Also systems and methods for creating and managing metadata records using domain specific language, vocabulary and metadata schema accepted by a community of users of unique, disparate or federated databases in centralized or distributed environments. Such environments can include content repositories including but not limited to: vehicle fleet information systems; government document holdings; insurance and underwriting information holdings; academic library collections; and entertainment archives.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention provides metadata management convergence platforms, systems, and methods to organize a community of users' data records. More specifically, the present invention provides methods managing metadata records related to content housed in unique, disparate or federated holdings in centralized or distributed environments. The present invention also provides systems and methods for creating and managing metadata records using domain specific language, vocabulary and metadata schema accepted by a community of users of unique, disparate or federated databases in centralized or distributed environments. Such environments can include content repositories. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Metadata is simply defined as “data about data”. Metadata typically describes the content, quality, condition, and / or other characteristics of data. The purposes of metadata include assisting users to organize and maintain an organization's or user communit...
