DiversityProjects
DiversityProjects (DP-DWB) 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.
DiversityProjects is focused on the management of (research) projects as well as data collections, data packages/ datasets processed by the other DWB modules. It is designed to manage metadata, labels, descriptors, titles and descriptions of the projects and data packages, including data package-specific settings for the data exchange standard compliant publication of data packages. DP is managing core information on data package-related publications as well as the (internal) storage of (legal) documents, e. g., ABS documents, and multimedia resources. Its functions include the handling of roles of persons and organisations/ institutions involved in collection and research projects. DP is organising project classification and data package hierarchy in relation to sister and umbrella projects as well as the storage of each type of stable identifier related to the data packages. Furthermore, it is managing issues on permits, licenses and web presentation of projects. Data of other realms like, e. g., the management of details on single data units, on agents/ users (persons or organisations/ institutions) and of details on references are handled in separate modules. For an overview of the available modules see the Diversity Workbench Main Page.
