JHOVE2 2009 Fall Workshop
Mission Bay Conference Center [link],
The JHOVE2 project team is organizing a free public half-day workshop held in conjunction with the 2009 iPRES Conference at the San Francisco Mission Bay Conference Center.
Although the workshop is free, registration is required and participation is limited to 70 people. (Please note that registration is now closed.)
The JHOVE2 project, a collaborative effort of the California Digital Library (CDL), Portico, and Stanford University, is a two year initiative funded by the Library of Congress as part of its National Information Infrastructure Preservation Program (NDIIPP) to develop a next-generation application and framework for format-aware characterization. The project seeks to build on the success of the original JHOVE characterization tool by addressing known limitations and offering significant new function. These enhancements include:
- Streamlined APIs
- Increased modularization
- Common module design patterns
- Object, rather than file, focused characterization
- Support for arbitrarily-nested container formats and formats instantiated across multiple files
- Signature-based identification
- Rules-based assessment
- Support for determinations of _acceptability_ in addition to validation _conformity_
- User configuration of modules, characterization strategies, and formatted results
- Performance improvements
The JHOVE2 workshop will be held on the Wednesday morning following the conclusion of the iPRES conference. Members of the project team will present on:
- The role of characterization in digital curation and preservation workflows
- An overview of the JHOVE2 project
- Demonstration of the prototype JHOVE2 framework
- Architectural review of the JHOVE2 application and Java APIs
- Integration of JHOVE2 technology into existing or planned systems and services
- Third-party development of conformant JHOVE2 modules
Although the workshop is free, registration is required and participation is limited to 70 people. (Please note that registration is now closed.)
