Foil 7 What are the "Database Issues"

From Master Set of WebWisdom Education and Training System: Distributed Objects and Collaboration SC97 Education Presentation and Later NSF Physics (Dec 3) -- 16 November97. by Geoffrey C. Fox


The containers needed in WebWisdom are characterized by classic library metadata (author, institution, licensing, Date, Title, Abstract, parent and children containers etc.)
The people have two classes of data attached to them
  • "Personal Information" Such as Name and SSN
  • "Performance Information" such as grades gotten and courses taken
IMS and ADL have good initial start on this.
