DiversityAgents
DiversityAgents (DWB-DA) is an application component of the database framework Diversity Workbench. It might be installed as part of a DWB environment, but also be used as a stand-alone application, e. g., in a local installation. Each DWB module is devoted to a specific data domain.
DiversityAgents is focused on the management of agents, that means persons and organisations. In this context it is designed to manage names (variant names, different names, academic degrees, standardized abbreviations etc.), bibliographic data, postal addresses, agent relation to projects, resources like images and documents and additional agent-related data including agent IDs and the hierarchy of person-related data. Data of other realms like, e. g., taxonomy, or the management of users are handled in separate modules. For an overview of the available modules see the Diversity Workbench Main Page.
For download of test versions check DiversityAgents clients for beta testing.
