Implementation
From an implementation perspective, Dspace offers many challenges
in the areas of metadata, rights management, community architectures,
integration, longevity, and scalability.
The team has authored several design
documents which describe the project, its structure, the system definition,
architecture, and current implementation direction and status.
We have also proposed some content guidelines
for the material that DSpace will house. These guidelines are informing
our decisions regarding DSpace architecture, functionality, and implementation.
Several Use case scenarios describe our understanding
of how individuals in various roles will interact with DSpace.
