3.5. Data Description Attributes (3X2A)
This section will expand on the concepts presented above to include attributes [7] that are associated with each concept in the Data Description section of the DRM abstract model. A description will be provided for each attribute, along with an example where necessary for clarity. All Unstructured Data Resource attributes and their descriptions are taken from the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI), Version 1.1, available at http://dublincore.org/documents/dcmi-terms/. All references to “resource” within descriptions of Unstructured Data Resource should therefore be interpreted as “Unstructured Data Resource”. The above URL provides additional information on attribute descriptions and usage. (3X2B)
-------------------- Concept-----Attribute------------Description-----------------Example (3YPA)
[7] It should be noted that the term "attribute" isused here in a different way than for the concept named "Attribute". Here, an "attribute" is used to describe characteristics of each of the concepts in the abstract model. (3YPB)
