Metadatapublishing is the process of making metadata data element s available to external users, both people and machines using a formal review process and a commitment to change control processes. Metadatapublishing is the foundation upon which advanced distributed computing functions are being built.

Primary sources date November 2009 Metadata is the name of a United States US corporation and a registered trademark in the United States. Though the term metadata has a common generic use in information technology , claims of trademark have since brought about legal threats against its use in the generic sense. History The word Metadata was registered in 1986 as a trademark U.S. Trademark Registration No. 1,409,206 belonging to The Metadata Company. Citation needed date August 2009 The trademark was granted incontestable status in 1991. Metadata is a proprietary mark which stands for The Metadata Company. The Metadata Company has since attempted to threaten people legally into not using the word metadata in the generic sense. Many people believe that due to the widespread use of the word metadata in the generic sense as data about data , it is likely that the Metadata trademark has genericised trademark entered the public domain by becoming a general term . This was the legal opinion expressed by the Office of the Solicitor of the United States Department of the Interior to the Federal Geographic Data Committee when the latter was threatened by Metadata s lawyers for its use of the word metadata in a generic sense. However, no judge has as yet ruled the trademark invalid.

Metadata modeling is a type of metamodeling used in software engineering and systems engineering for the analysis and construction of models applicable and useful some predefined class of problems. Meta modeling is the analysis, construction and development of the frames, rules, constraints, models and theories applicable and useful for the modeling in a predefined class of problems. The meta data side of the diagram consists of a concept diagram. This is basically an adjusted class diagram as described in Booch, Rumbaugh and Jacobson 1999 . Important notions are concept, generalization, association, multiplicity and aggregation. Metadatamodeling Concepts Image Mm31.gif thumb Fig.1 STANDARD, OPEN and CLOSED CONCEPTS Image Mm32.gif thumb Fig.2 Example of STANDARD, OPEN and CLOSED CONCEPTS First of all, a concept is a simple version of a UML class.

The following concept types are specified STANDARD CONCEPT a concept that contains no further sub concepts. A standard concept is visualized with a rectangle. COMPLEX CONCEPT a concept that consists of a collection of sub concepts. Complex concepts are divided into OPEN CONCEPT a complex concept whose sub concepts are expanded. An open concept is visualized with two white rectangles above each other. CLOSED CONCEPT a complex concept whose sub concepts are not expanded since it is not relevant in the specific context.

Unreferenced date December 2009 In metadata , the representation term code refers to, and is used in the name of, data element s whose allowable values can be represented as enumerated lists. Each enumerated value is a string that for brevity represents a specific meaning. For example, for a PersonGenderCode the allowable code valid values might be male , female or unknown . To be compliant with ISO standards a value meaning or definition must also be associated with each code. The ISO IEC 11179 metadata registry standard defines code as a system of valid symbols that substitute for longer values. In general, if the number of codes is small the list of valid codes and their definitions can be transmitted with a document that validates the data. Codes usually have a symbolic meaning that can be understood by a person. One example code is a set of two letter state code s used in a US postal address. The code MN represents the state of Minnesota. Its equivalent Identifier metadata ID using FIPS state code FIPS standards is the number 27 . The number 27 would be classified as having a representation term of type Identifier metadata Identifier and have the representation suffix of ID . Another example is the IATA airport code three letter international airport codes such as MSP for the Minneapolis St. Paul Airport. Although people use these codes to identify an airport, they would be classified as having a representation term of Code because they contain mnemonic information. Sometimes ... classified as a code.

Unreferenced date December 2009 In metadata , dimension is a set of equivalent units of measure, where equivalence between two units of measure is determined by the existence of a quantity preserving one to one correspondence between values measured in one unit of measure and values measured in the other unit of measure, independent of context, and where characterizing operations are the same. The equivalence defined here forms an equivalence relation on the set of all units of measure. Each equivalence class corresponds to a dimensionality. The units of measure temperature in degrees Fahrenheit and temperature in degrees Celsius have the same dimensionality, because given a value measured in degrees Fahrenheit there is a value measured in degrees Celsius with the same quantity, and vice versa. Quantity preserving one to one correspondences are the well known equations C 5 9 F &minus 32 and F 9 5 C 32. Units of measure are not limited to physical categories. Examples of physical categories are linear measure, area, volume, mass, velocity, time duration. Examples of non physical categories are currency, quality indicator, colour intensity Quantities may be grouped together into categories of quantities which are mutually comparable. Lengths, diameters, distances, heights, wavelengths and so on would constitute such a category. Mutually comparable quantities have the same dimensionality.

Metadata removal tool or Metadata scrubber is a type of privacy software built to protect the privacy of its users by removing potentially privacy compromising metadata from files before they are shared with others e.g. by sending them as e mail attachment s or by posting them on the World Wide Web Web . Metadata can be found in many types of files such as document s, spreadsheet s, presentation s, image s, and Sound recording and reproduction audio files. They can include information such as details on the file authors, file creation and modification dates, document revision history, and comments. Since metadata is sometimes not clearly visible in authoring applications depending on the application and its settings , there is a risk that the user will be unaware of its existence or will forget about it and, if the file is shared, private or confidential information will inadvertently be exposed. The purpose of metadata removal tools is to minimize the risk of such data leakage. The metadata removal tools that exist today can be divided into four groups Integral metadata removal tools, which are included in some applications, like the Document Inspector in Microsoft Office 2007 . Batch metadata removal tools, which can process multiple files. E mail client add in s, which are designed to remove metadata from e mail attachments just before they are sent. Server based systems, which are designed to automatically remove metadata at the network gateway.
