In-Depth Information
Preservation features should be embedded in the “creation” environment,
automating/facilitating the generation of necessary representation information
(data, models, assumptions, configurations,
...
).
Knowledge Gap Manager which provides a semi-automated way of identify-
ing where additional Representation Information needs to be created, based on
information collected by the Orchestrator/Broker
Processing Context which helps to maintain information about the processing
history of a dataset
24.6.1.2 Final Destination
A set of services, supported over the long term, which make it easier to main-
tain adequate Representation Information, particularly after active work on the
dataset has ceased or slowed. Automated capturing of the creation and processing
context.

24.6.2 Sharing of Information About Hardware and Software
Ability to share information about the availability of hardware and software and
their replacements/substitutes:
SCENARIO
A performing artist finds a masterpiece of (formerly) modern music which
requires a signal processing system which used to run on an Apple Macintosh
to add a special type of reverberation to the sound. The artist has a number of
options including finding the signal processing software together with a working
Apple Macintosh, or an emulator running on his/her computer
A way to sharing information about hardware and software would facilitate the
re-performance of this masterpiece.
24.6.2.1 Next Steps
Development and sharing of information about emulation and migration strate-
gies
Development of orchestrator/broker to share available substitutes
