Title: Recommended Practice for Expressing IEEE Learning Object Metadata
Instances Using the Dublin Core Abstract Model
Scope:
This Recommended Practice describes IEEE LTSC P1484.12.1 Learning Object
Metadata (LOM) instances in terms compatible with the Dublin Core
Abstract Model (DCAM). The Recommended Practice describes how to use the
definitions of metadata terms defined by the IEEE LTSC P1484.12.x
"Standard for Resource Description Framework (RDF) vocabulary for IEEE
LOM Data Elements" for expressing metadata conforming to LOM in Dublin
Core metadata. While this Recommended Practice includes a description of
how to combine the specified terms so that metadata instances conforming
to this Recommended Practice also conform to the IEEE LOM Standard, it
does not address the issue of expressing DCAM elements in LOM terms.
Purpose:
There is an increasing demand for interoperable definitions of Dublin
Core metadata terms and IEEE LOM data elements which allow these to be
used together in metadata instances. This Recommended Practice addresses
this requirement by describing how to use IEEE LOM and Dublin Core terms
together in Dublin Core metadata instances. This represents a partial
and short-term solution to the overall issue of metadata
interoperability in learning, education, and training contexts. , The
Recommended Practice also aims to inform the longer-term process of
trying to align the abstract models of IEEE LOM and DCAM, as it will
provide an analysis of fundamental incompatibilities between the two
models.

Title: Standard for Resource Description Framework (RDF) vocabulary for
IEEE LOM Data Elements
Scope:
This Standard defines a Resource Description Framework (RDF) vocabulary
for data elements from the IEEE LTSC P1484.12.1 Learning Object
Metadata (LOM)standard. The Standard makes use of modeling primitives
from the RDF Vocabulary Description Language (RDF Schema) and the Dublin
Core Abstract Model(DCAM). The Standard includes the specification of
RDF terms, including properties, classes, vocabularies, syntax encoding
schemes and vocabulary encoding schemes, that may be used for
expressing RDF metadata using LOM data elements and vocabularies. The
recommendation includes the specification of URIs to
use for the terms. The Standard does not define new terms for data
elements that can be appropriately expressed using sufficiently stable,
existing RDF vocabularies (notably Dublin Core). This Standard does not
address the construction of conforming IEEE LOM metadata instances using
RDF technology.
Purpose:
There is an increasing demand for interoperable definitions of IEEE LOM
data elements which allow these elements to be used in applications
using Semantic Web technologies such as the Resource Description
Framework (RDF). This Standard will form an important basis for making
IEEE LOM metadata terms useful in this larger metadata context.
