Visualization, Interaction and Analysis of Heterogeneous Textbook Resources

Abstract

Historically grown research projects, run by researchers with limited understanding of data sustainability, data reusability and standards, often lead to data silos. While the data are very valuable it can not be used by any service except the tool it was prepared for. Over the years, the number of such data graveyards will increase because new projects will always be designed from scratch. In this work we propose a Component Metadata Infrastructure (CMDI)-based approach for data rescue and data reuse, where data are retroactively joined into one repository minimizing the implementation effort of future research projects.

“…The second paper, entitled Visualization, Interaction and Analysis of Heterogeneous Textbook Resources, and written by Christian Scheel, Francesca Fallucchi, and Ernesto William De Luca [2], proposes a Component Metadata Infrastructure (CMDI)-based approach. The authors used this approach for data rescue and reuse, where data is retroactively joined into one repository, minimizing future research projects' implementation efforts.…”
