| 5 | === eSciDoc architecture as of 2008-10-16 === |
| 6 | |
| 7 | * three layers |
| 8 | * common functionality |
| 9 | * generalized and unified data model for all content resources |
| 10 | * content modeling of resources as a specialization instrument |
| 11 | * versioning |
| 12 | * PID |
| 13 | * currently a political problem; to be implemented really for faces etc. by year-end |

| 16 | * duplicate detection |
| 17 | * image handling |
| 18 | * metadata handler |

| 27 | * export manager |
| 28 | * SearchAndOutput |
| 29 | * controlled vocabularies |
| 30 | * use of Fedora |
| 31 | * Fedora has its own versioning model |
| 32 | * versioning model is component-level |
| 33 | * no version numbers (data-based versioning) |
| 34 | * core services of eSciDoc implement versioning independently |
| 35 | * an eSciDoc item may be more than one Fedora object |
| 36 | * three stages |
| 37 | * pending |
| 38 | * submitted (some quality control) |
| 39 | * released (a published, valid object) |
| 40 | * after release an object cannot be deleted (to ensure persistence) |
| 41 | * interfaces |
| 42 | * SOAP and REST |
