Challenges for suppliers Sample Clauses

Challenges for suppliers. In the sections above some gaps are identified. They can be summarised as an urgent need for File Compliance, File Corrections and Software Conformance. The PREFORMA way to address these needs is to guarantee that what is produced according to a standard, tested for conformity, and (if needed) re-processed for corrections, happens within an iteration that is under full control of the memory institutions or others with the intention to preserve electronic documents or other electronic media content long term. The suppliers have, therefore, to develop tools with a high level of automation and self-reliance that can provide a reference implementation of file format standards used for data objects. We call these tools “Abstract Conformance Checker”, “Scorer”, “Reporter”, and “Abstract Fixes Suggester/Correcter”. They shall all be modular and validated against standards mostly used by the European memory institutions for preserving their different kind of data objects like documents, books, images and audiovisual recordings. In addition, PREFORMA will establish feedback processes to relevant standardisation organisations for each open file format used in order to resolve any potential ambiguity in specifications of open file formats. Such feedback includes implementation notes and details on precisely how the specifications have been interpreted by the suppliers. Today, there are tools on the market to deal with compliancy, but in many cases this doesn’t actually mean compliancy with the standard specification but rather compliancy to run on particular platforms in a system. PREFORMA will require suppliers to deliver a solution that supports compliancy tests in a vender-neutral way and, in cases when a wrapper format contains non-open file formats, provide open source licensed migration components for transformation into open file formats as part of the solution. As PREFORMA will develop Open Source software, the project will work on specifications that are royalty free. Therefore the PREFORMA project will address technical and legal challenges related to so called “less” open file format specifications and consider the need for developing migration strategies to open file formats in order to establish sustainable ecosystems for software that meet the needs for long-term preservation by memory institutions. A range of requirements to control and assess the quality of the implementation of standard formats have been discussed in the previous sections, demonstrat...
