| Abstract: | This paper summarizes the Flexible Extensible Digital Object and Repository Architecture (Fedora) project which was funded through a $1,000,000 grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Fedora is a new system designed to be a model upon which interoperable web-based digital libraries can be built. Cornell and the University of Virginia joined forces to build and implement the new open-source version of Fedora. The author provides an in-depth description of Fedora's architectural model, the prototype and test bed at Virginia, and the updated Fedora system specification that includes management service and access service interfaces. An alpha version of the software is planned for release in October 2002. Phase 2 of the project will entail performance optimization for XML. |
