| Guidelines |
| Many Internet archives of digital resources, such as the Internet Archive [1] or Wikimedia Commons [2], provide ways of annotating the data but do not offer automated means of extracting and representing structures stored within the data itself, for example, the contents of file archives, image or music metadata, or resources within executable files, in a non-proprietary form.
The student will get familiar with the RDF data model [3] and the standards for representation of media types [4] and identification of resources on the Internet [5][6][7]. The student will design, implement, document, evaluate and test an extensible tool for representing and describing data structures and metadata obtained via analysis of files based on their file format and content, supporting selected file formats. The result of the analysis will be represented in RDF, with emphasis on standardized or prevalent vocabularies [8]. The thesis will also include a couple of use cases for such a representation of the contents of files. |
