The SCAPE platform data model

To enable the different components of the SCAPE platform to exchange data a model is required. This model constitutes part of the required specification for the Data Connector API (PT.WP2 Task2) and the Plan Management component.
The model consists of various Java classes holding the information of digital objects accessible to the different platform components like the workflow execution system. The classes are annotated using JAXB enabling easy serialization into METS representations

The following use cases are relevant to the model:

• Ingesting, updating removing and retrieving intellectual entities persisted in the repository
• Ingesting, updating removing and retrieving preservation plans persisted in the repository
• Searching for intellectual entities in the repository
• Searching for preservation plans in the repository
