ABSTRACT
This paper presents first steps towards implementing a data layer to support a semi-automated preservation management system for research data in the arts and humanities. We suggest to use e-Science technology and grid middleware to implement a virtualised storage system for research data. We will outline how iRODS (Rule-Oriented Data management System)can be used within an architecture to implement complex,automated,scalable digital preservation strategies.

Extracting and Ingesting DDI Metadata and Digital Objects from a Data Archive into the iRODS Extension of the NARA TPAP Using the OAI-PMH
E-SCIENCE '09: Proceedings of the 2009 Fifth IEEE International Conference on e-ScienceThis prototype demonstrated that the migration of collections between digital libraries and preservation data archives is now possible using automated batch load for both data and metadata. We used this capability to enable collection interoperability ...
Demonstration of Policy-Guided Data Preservation Using iRODS
POLICY '11: Proceedings of the 2011 IEEE International Symposium on Policies for Distributed Systems and NetworksPolicy-oriented data management is an emerging field that provides automation of large collection management using policies encoded as machine-executable rules. Digital archives provide long term preservation of collections that can span decades across ...
A Digital Archive Data Preservation Management System Using IRODS Architecture
CSCI '14: Proceedings of the 2014 International Conference on Computational Science and Computational Intelligence - Volume 02Currently, the amount of data is huge. Not only is the quantity of data growing in size, it is also becoming much more diverse and complex, significantly complicating the issues around its creation. It is increasingly important to improve and maintain ...
