Abstract

In the current information environment, metadata interoperability has become the predominant way of organizing and managing resources. However, current approaches to metadata interoperability focus on the superficial mapping between labels of metadata elements without considering semantics of each element. This research applied facet analysis to address these difficulties in achieving metadata interoperability. By categorizing metadata elements according to these semantic and functional similarities, this research identified different types of facets: basic, conceptual, and relational. Through these different facets, a faceted framework was constructed to mediate semantic, syntactical, and structural differences across heterogeneous metadata standards.

현재의 정보환경에서 메타데이터 상호운용은 정보를 관리하고 조직하는 데 있어 유용한 도구가 되고 있다. 하지만 상호운용성 확보를 위한 현재의 방법들은 메타데이터 요소의 의미를 고려하지 않은 피상적인 매핑에만 중점을 두고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제들을 해결하기 위해 패싯분석을 적용하여 메타데이터 상호운용성을 확보하고자 한다. 메타데이터 요소들의 의미와 기능적인 유사성에 따라 요소들을 분석하여, 기본패싯, 개념패싯, 관계패싯의 세 가지 유형의 패싯을 확인하고, 이를 통해 의미적, 구문적, 구조적 상호운용성을 제공할 수 있는 패싯 프레임워크를 구축하였다.
