Platform ZooSPACE - providing access to heterogeneous distributed resources

О.Л. Жижимов, А.М. Федотов, Ю.И. Шокин
Abstract: We consider the technological platform of mass integration of distributed heterogeneous data sources. At the core technology platform is a software system, code-named ZooSPACE, developed in ICT SB RAS. ZooSPACE complex is built on the basis of a loosely coupled distributed subsystems that provide configuration (ZooSPACE-L), access to resources (ZooSPACE-Z), user and administrative WEB-interfaces (ZooSPACE-W), collection of statistics (ZooSPACE-S) and monitoring (ZooSPACE -M) of the system. We discuss the architecture and composition of each of the subsystems. Describes the experimental facility, established to carry out experimental research component technology platform integration of heterogeneous distributed resources ZooSPACE.

A Model for Integrating the Publication and Preservation of Journal Articles

Хокинс Кевин С.
Abstract: There are policy, technical, and workflow gaps in library efforts to preserve online journal literature. Since libraries are increasingly involved in journal publishing, HathiTrust, a shared preservation-quality digital repository, is a natural place to archive and provide access to journal literature to ensure its long-term preservation and discoverability. The University of Michigan Library is funding the creation of mPach, an open-source, end-to-end publishing system in which archiving in HathiTrust happens as a byproduct of publication rather than being carried out after the fact. The architecture of mPach, its envisioned workflow, and plans for creating a shared infrastructure for publishing open-access journals are all summarized.
