title: CHIMERA: a service oriented computing approach for archaeological research creator: Dunn, Stuart creator: Gold, Nicolas creator: Hughes, Lorna subject: 930 subject: Alte Geschichte, Vor- und Frühgeschichte, Archäologie subject: History of the ancient world to ca. 499 [T930] subject: Prehistoric Archaeology [FVFG] subject: Classical Archaeology [FKA] description: Archaeological data is available in greater complexity and volume than ever before, which presents significant challenges and opportunities. In this position paper, we describe how a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) could be deployed not only to bring federated resources together with a unified searching capability, but also how those capabilities could themselves be used to create a ‘bottom up’ domain ontology for the resources’ subject area or areas. By linking with Virtual Research Environment (VRE) technology, this system could deliver access to a range of digital resources for excavators in the field, and at the same time provide a valuable body of semantic information about the archaeological research workflow, as expressed in the natural language archaeologists use to conduct their collection searches. contributor: Posluschny, A. contributor: Lambers, K. contributor: Herzog, I. date: 2008 type: Book Section type: info:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: https://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/propylaeumdokhttps://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/propylaeumdok/570/1/06_08_dunn_et_al_chimera.pdf identifier: DOI:10.11588/propylaeumdok.00000570 identifier: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-propylaeumdok-5702 identifier: Dunn, Stuart ; Gold, Nicolas ; Hughes, Lorna (2008) CHIMERA: a service oriented computing approach for archaeological research.
