Abstract:
|
We introduce a flexible mechanism to classify metadata resources using their elements and
attributes. The metadata resources are represented in XML and we assume that they
have been created based on some resource
schemas. The concept of a classification schema
is proposed to construct a taxonomy with
metadata resources classified into different
categories using classification rules. To define
these classification schemas, a classification
language has been developed. Using this language, we are able to define different
classification schemas and thus construct
different taxonomies for the same metadata
resource collection. In this paper, we will
describe the important features of this
classification language, illustrating it with
different examples. |
