Welcome to the New DCC Development Wiki
Standards Development
The DCC and CASPAR are closely involved with the development of the OAIS standard and we are providing a reference software implementation for some aspects of the standard.
Software Development
Preservation workflow
The diagram below shows the joint CASPAR/DCC preservation components. It has a number of hotspots which link to further information - further links will be added in due course.
The DCC are developing a number of software tools and APIs in conjunction with the CASPAR Project. These tools implement a number of aspects of OAIS. The following links provide more detailed information about these tools:
RepInfoRegistry[Tools for curating OAIS Representation Information and Preservation Description Information (PDI).]
RepInfoToolbox[Tools for creating, viewing and accessing OAIS Representation Information.]
DataObjectVirtualisation[Tools for reusing data.]
PackagingTools[Tools to logically or physically package data with its Representation Information.]
AuthenticityTools[Tools to capture the authenticity infromation associated with a digital object.]
Training Material Development
We are also developing training material based on OAIS and the reference software implementation
