Reuse News Brief
Week Ending: August 30, 1996
*********************************
ARC NEWS INTERVIEWS RIG CHAIR
*********************************
The August, 1996 issue of ARC News published an interview
with James W. Moore, Special Assistant for Standards and
Reuse at the MITRE Corporation and founder and Chair of the
Reuse Library Interoperability Group (RIG). Moore discussed
the RIG's achievements, -- including the Basic
Interoperability Data Model -- challenges it has had to
overcome, and future plans.
Moore noted that one of the biggest challenges the RIG has
had to overcome is being ahead of the times in respect to
reusing components from other libraries. He also discussed
the importance of intellectual property rights and RIG's
intention to extend its data model to carry this information
along with the asset.
Future priorities noted by Moore are to provide additional
extensions to the data model to satisfy additional needs and
to bond the data model to networks other than the WWW. The
RIG is looking toward a "reference model" that explains how
the various needed items fit together.
