]> 1.0 E-research in the Social Sciences and Humanities Domain-specific Meta-Model Trinity College Dublin This ontology provides a description of the data lifecycle for e-research in social sciences and humanities. 09-07-2015 Kevin C. Feeney (kevin.feeney@cs.tcd.ie) Rob Brennan (rob.brennan@cs.tcd.ie) The purpose of the E-research in the Social Sciences and Humanities Domain-specific Meta-Model is to provide a set of concrete entities, agents, activities, and roles to represent the data engineering process. It is based on the general Data Lifecycle Ontology. This ontology imports the W3C PROV ontology available at http://www.w3c.org/TR/prov-o/. It is derived from the Data Lifecycle Ontology available at http://aligned-project.eu/ontologies/dlo. Bojan Božić (bozicb@scss.tcd.ie) Candidate A dataset which is potentially going to be included into the database. Consumer A person or software agent who consumes data from the system. Creation Input of new data through a human (e.g. user/domain expert) or machine (e.g. sensor) source. Data Collection Automatic or semi-automatic input of new data (e.g. through a harvester). Elaboration Addition of new information to already existing data. Extraction Gathering of specific information from structured data sources. Filtering Selection of specific information out of a large data set or data base. HTML An HTML resource (e.g. a Website). Interpretation The way a dataset is actually saved into the system (also includes the format). JStore jQuery based client-side storage management. Merging Putting data from different sources and/or from spanning different but overlapping knowledge together. Meta-Report Data about a certain report. Prefiltering Preparation for filtering in the case the data set is too big to be filtered in one single step. Processor A person or software agent who changes data in the system. Producer A person or software agent who produces new data and provides them to the system. Publishing Publishing of data on the Web in a structured format. Querying Sending queries to a database and retrieving results based on the query criteria. Report A dataset actually included into the database. Revision Improvement of quality of data through a user. Updating Adding new information or modifying existing data. Web Resource A general resource that can be identified by a URL and is located on the Web. Wiki A wiki page providing data which can be used as input.
