Parent element supporting the unique identification of each SIP
within the Producer-Archive Project and the ability to optionally
track the sequencing of SIPs.
Parent element that conceptually holds two types of containers. The
Transfer Object container consists of: one Transfer Object
Identification and Status container; and one or more Transfer
Object Group containers.
Conceptually holds three types of containers. These are the
Transfer Object Group Identification container; any number of other
Transfer Object Group containers; and any number of Data Object
containers.
Composed of one or more elements giving the identification of the
Transfer Objects previously sent to the Archive that must be
deleted by the Archive.
Conceptually holds two or more containers. These are the: Data Object
Identification container; and one or more Stream containers.
Identifier of the delivered SIP within the context of the
given Producer-Archive Project. If there are multiple Producer
Sources submitting SIPs within a single Producer-Archive
Project, this SIP ID must be unique across all such Producer
Sources. It is inserted during SIP construction. The form
shall be agreed between Producer and Archive, but the
identifier shall be generated by the Producer. The Archive
shall check uniqueness.
Identifier of the Producer Source sufficient to
enable the Archive to identify the origin of the SIP and to
send an acknowledgement. There may be multiple Producer
sources sending SIPs to the Archive within a given Producer-
Archive Project. The form of the Producer Source ID shall be
agreed between Producer and Archive.
Identifier of the Producer-Archive Project that
distinguishes the project from all other Producer-Archive
Projects undertaken by this Archive. This ID shall be provided
by the Archive for use in the SIPs.
Identifier of the specification that defines which Transfer
Object Types (i.e., Descriptor IDs) are allowed within this
SIP, as well as their occurrence within the SIP.
A number indicating the order in which the SIP has been sent.
This number is unique within the combined context of the
Producer-Archive Project and Producer Source ID. This becomes
mandatory for all SIPs sent by a Producer Source if any of the
Transfer Objects to be provided by the Producer Source have a
Descriptor that does not specify a unique value for the number
of Transfer Objects to be delivered. It shall be generated by
the Producer.
Allows a conforming XML document to have any additional XML
elements at this point in its structure.
An identifier of the Transfer Object Type Descriptor that
describes this type of Transfer Object. This is obtained from
the MOT.
A unique identifier for each delivered Transfer Object within
the Producer-Archive Project. It is inserted during SIP
building. The form shall be agreed between Producer and
Archive. It shall be generated by the Producer. Uniqueness
shall be checked by the Archive.
An indicator specifying that this Transfer Object is the last
Transfer Object of this type (i.e., within the scope of this
Descriptor) being delivered by this Producer Source. This
element is particularly useful when the number of Transfer
Objects to be delivered is not known in advance. If used with
a single Producer Source for Transfer Objects of this type,
this flag eliminates the need for an additional contact
between the Archives and the Producer Source to verify that
all such Transfer Objects have been received. If there are
multiple Producer Sources that may be delivering Transfer
Objects of this type, the Archive may or may not need to
contact these Producer Sources to determine when all such
Transfer Objects have been sent and received.
An identifier of the Transfer Object ID of a previously sent
Transfer Object that is to be replaced by this Transfer
Object.
The identifier of the associated group
description within the associated Descriptor. If this group
is an instance of a Transfer Object Group Type as specified in
the Descriptor, then the value of this element shall be the Transfer
Object Group Type ID of that Transfer Object Group Type. If
this group is an instance that is part of a data structure
transferred under a Transfer Object Group Type whose Transfer
Object Group Structure Name has the value 'undescribed', then
the value of this Associated Descriptor ID shall be the Transfer
Object Group Type ID of that Transfer Object Group Type.
A name given to the group, such as a directory name, that
is associated with the Transfer Object Group instance. It
shall be provided by the Producer. If the group has been
modeled as a directory (i.e., Structure Name =
'directory'), it is the name of the directory excluding any
path information.
A name given to the group, such as a directory name, that
is to be preserved by the archive in association with the
Transfer Object Group instance. If the group has been
modeled as a directory (i.e., Structure Name =
'directory'), it is the name of the directory excluding any
path information.
The identifier of the associated data description
within the associated Descriptor. If this is an instance of a
Data Object Type defined in the Descriptor then this shall be the
Data Object Type ID of that Data Object Type. If this is an
instance of a Transfer Object Group Type defined in the
Descriptor to be encoded and thus it results in a single Data
Object, then this shall be the Transfer Object Group Type ID of that
Transfer Object Group Type. If this is an instance of a Data
Object that is transferred within the context of a Descriptor
defined Transfer Object Group Type whose Transfer Object Group
Type Structure Name has the value 'undescribed', then this shall be
the Transfer Object Group Type ID of that Transfer Object
Group Type.
A name to be preserved in association with the Data Object
instance. When the Data Object is composed of a single
byte stream, it tells the Archive exactly what name is to
be preserved in association with that byte stream. When
the Data Object is composed of multiple byte streams, it
tells the Archive exactly what name is to be preserved in
association with the set of byte streams.It shall be provided
by the Producer.
An identifier of the Transfer Object ID of a previously sent
Transfer Object that is to be deleted by the Archive.
