Patrick, Clement, Martin and the #FRBRoo subSIG,
This is indeed an encouraging development for the #PRESSoo model as the IFLA has shown a long-standing interest and support for the intersection/harmonization of the #cidocCRM and #FRBR models (http://www.ifla.org/node/928). For my part (and after the dust settles from our impending move of our home from Iowa to Colorado, USA), as mentioned in my prior post I am working on an example dataset for the Softalk magazine collection that will show how the #PRESSoo Issuing Rule and Issuing Rule Change classes can be used for a fine-grained magazine-design pattern language that can used to shift the focus for layout- and text-recognition from the bottom-up/within-page strategy to a top-down/whole-issue strategy. My dataset is focused on the evolving design patterns for Softalks TOC (Table of Contents), masthead, and Ad Index sections (dataset on GitHub: https://goo.gl/5NVI12). I especially want this example to show the potential need for (or to find a recommended work-around for) an Issuing Rule Exception class to enable the use of #PRESSoos Issuing Rule components as a means to bring accumulated design pattern knowledge into the bulk digitization workflow. For example, the Softalk Issuing Rule dataset will become the foundation for a commercial magazine design pattern book to be developed as a Special Research Collection at the Internet Archive. It sounds like the newly-forming IFLA-based #PRESSoo Review Group will be the place for such discussion or at least occasional updates on my progress/interests. Thank you again, Patrick, for the information and link, -: Jim :- From: Crm-sig [mailto:crm-sig-boun...@ics.forth.gr] On Behalf Of patrick.le-bo...@bnf.fr Sent: Tuesday, August 30, 2016 1:34 AM To: crm-sig@ics.forth.gr Cc: clement.o...@issn.org Subject: Re: [Crm-sig] #cidocCRM & #UIMA type system harmony & where to discuss#PRESSoo Hi Jim, PRESSoo is no longer an ISSN.org model, it has been endorsed by the IFLA Cataloguing Section and is currently in the process of being validated by the IFLA Committee on Standards. If everything goes well, it should be released under an IFLA cover by the end of this year. You will find more (although not enough) info from: < <http://www.ifla.org/node/10410> http://www.ifla.org/node/10410>. In order to communicate with the PRESSoo Review Group, which has no dedicated discussion list (so far), the best thing is to contact directly its chair, Clément Oury, to whom I cc this email.

This paper is from a group of research computer scientists at the Colorado Computational Pharmacology research center at the U. of Colorado Denver ( <http://compbio.ucdenver.edu/Hunter_lab/> http://compbio.ucdenver.edu/Hunter_lab/). This brilliant paper describes the CCP's proposal for the implementation of a #UIMA type system that is a lightweight metamodel with flexibility/interoperability (harmonious ontological mapping) achieved by referencing an external object model containing the full semantic complexity desired for the #UIMA application (or more typically, the compositional pipeline of #UIMA workflow frameworks/components that make up an "application"). My own interests suggest that such "external" metamodel reference modeling can be done/transmitted within a "self-descriptive partition" of the dataset/document itself, e.g. in a metamodel subgraph when working with a graph-based model of a #TDM (text- and data-mining) resource. My #DATeCH paper ( <https://goo.gl/V2eR0H> https://goo.gl/V2eR0H) has a section on applying the #cidocCRM as an executable metamodel. And this Exhibition modeling conversation at the Schema.org GitHub repository touches on these ideas: <https://goo.gl/lw5Zlq> https://goo.gl/lw5Zlq and <https://goo.gl/OuH1PA> https://goo.gl/OuH1PA. I also did a two-part Neo4j (graph database) GraphGist that provides a simplified demonstration of how such self-descriptive resources might facilitate "soft"/dynamic configuration of visualization and editing frameworks/tools: <http://goo.gl/TIG9Md> http://goo.gl/TIG9Md(Part 1 has a 'Hello, World' scale example of the design and Part 2 is an early attempt at (pre-#cidocCRM) to do a domain model for Softalk magazine.) * AND THE QUESTION: Given that #PRESSoo is a DSL/extension of the #cidocCRM (and #FRBRoo), where is the best place to discuss this ISSN.org model for clarification and the possibility of refinement/extension? It is not clear from the ISSN's website how the #PRESSoo dedicated Review Group works or is available for communication. I want to contribute a second paper to the delayed #DATeCH conference where I will demonstrate the use of #PRESSoo's Z12 Issuing Rule and Z5 Issuing Rule Change elements to specify a fine-grained magazine design pattern language. Such a pattern language could help move layout- and text-recognition during bulk document digitization from a bottom-up/within-page strategy to a top-down/whole-issue workflow strategy. To this end, I have surfaced the need to consider the value of adding a Z-based Issuing Rule Exception class to the model to cover "one-off" exceptions to the currently active Issuing Rule set for a particular document. As always, direct replies as well as contributions here on-list are welcome and much-appreciated. Finally, I am especially excited to learn about the #TDM research group at U. of Denver. My wife and I are now sufficiently past our horrific cancer battles and moving forward on the #PayItForward Bonus Rounds of our lives. We are in the process this month of moving from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, to a new home near-family in Colorado. We will be less than an easy half-hour drive to the Aurora campus where these amazing #CognitiveComputing researchers are doing their exciting work. :-) Happy-Healthy Vibes, -: Jim :- Jim Salmons Twitter: @Jim_Salmons <http://www.factminers.org/> http://www.FactMiners.org(Our #CitizenScience project) <http://www.softalkapple.com/> http://www.SoftalkApple.com(Our #DigitalHistory project) <http://www.medium.com/@Jim_Salmons/> http://www.medium.com/@Jim_Salmons/(my #CognitiveComputing/#DigitalHumanities articles) _______________________________________________ Crm-sig mailing list Crm-sig@ics.forth.gr <mailto:Crm-sig@ics.forth.gr> <http://lists.ics.forth.gr/mailman/listinfo/crm-sig> http://lists.ics.forth.gr/mailman/listinfo/crm-sig _____ Fermeture annuelle de la BnF du 3 au 11 septembre 2016 <http://www.bnf.fr/fr/la_bnf/anx_actu_bib/a.fermeture_annuelle.html> Avant d'imprimer, pensez à l'environnement.
