Abstract

A huge amount of metadata is being published from various communities, domains and countries on the Internet. Metadata schema designers need to design metadata schema for their applications considering the interoperability. Linked Open Data (LOD) is the concept and movement to facilitate the use of datasets across communities on the Internet. However, to publish metadata as LOD, metadata schema designers must be experts of LOD. Metadata schema design, which is similar to software design, requires design and evaluation cycles where the iterative prototyping of metadata is useful. Our goal is to help metadata schema designers design a metadata schema in an iterative prototyping process. In this paper, we describe a metadata schema design methodology based on the agile development model. And then, we propose a system to support the proposed methodology including a metadata-editing tool. Finally, we show some metadata schemas as examples.
