Further text discusses issues with possible approaches to applying the Fixity component of PDI to Representation Information and to the combined CDO with Representation Information. All of the text clearly expresses concerns with a set of implementation approaches and therefor should immediately be suspect as a rationale for changes. In fact it appears that not only were the approaches being considered too rigid, but the view of the information models was also too rigid because there are implementation approaches that can work. The OAIS RM presents CONCEPTUAL MODELS and not IMPLEMENTATION MODELS. The OAIS RM was generated to provide a common framework of terms and concepts to facilitate communication. This is easy to forget as it can easily be viewed, and often has been, as an implementation model. For example, Section 2.2 is stated to contain the only information models that an OAIS implementation needs to support in order to be an OAIS. But what do we say in 2.2, and specifically regarding Figure 2-3, in this context? We take a top-down approach and give a very high level (i.e.,with little detail) view of an Information Package involving four basic types of information (Content Information, PDI, Packaging Information, and Descriptive Information) and their relationships. We show Packaging Information as a simple container with a small divider, one side holding Content Information and the other PDI, and we state that PDI is needed to preserve the Content Information, to ensure it is clearly identified, and to understand the environment in which it was created. We show Descriptive Information as being associated with this Information Package to facilitate finding the Content Information of interest.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class=""><o:p class=""> </o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class="">I think the Conceptual Model was designed to be and should reflect real implementations.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: red;" class="">I agree with John – the Conceptual Model should be implementable and real implementations should be mappable to the Conceptual Model if the implementation conforms.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class=""><o:p class=""> </o:p></span></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">Note what it does NOT say. It does NOT say how PDI is supposed to be related to Content Information, which is defined to be the Content Data Object and its Representation Information. It could be implemented as only applied to the Content Data Object (as SC222 proposes), it could also be implemented as applied individually to the Content Data Object and the Representation Information. For example, a registry of Representation Information objects must perform preservation and must be concerned with source, version history, and fixity (i.e., PDI) and therefore needs to maintain some level of PDI. One would expect PDI applied to a Content Data Object and to differ from that applied to its Representation Information. There is no OAIS requirement other than being able to describe an OAIS implementation as using these high level concepts, and this can be done regardless of the implementation approach as long as these information types can be identified. On the other hand, adopting SC222 says that a conforming OAIS is expected to be able to relate PDI to its Content Data Object, AND there is no reason to expect any PDI to be applied to the Representation Information. This is limiting the concept of PDI applicability that is contrary to actual implementations (e.g., Representation Information Registries) while such a limitation is not there now and thus would be a step backward.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class=""><o:p class=""> </o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class="">I think this is stretching understanding of normal readers.

It is usually productive to have more than one way to view a topic.

It came to me when I realized that you do not disagree that showing that PDI can be recursive solves the central issue of PDI on PDI, and further that it does not require any changes in any of the existing information modeling of the current (2012) OAIS Reference Model. However you make clear in your concluding comment that this is not your preferred approach and you feel your approach is to ‘re-use the existing concepts cleanly’. Coupling this with your past insistence on removing PDI from being applied to Representation Information, as is implied by the current view of the Information Package ( Figure 2-3 and Figure 4-13 ), led me to reeximine this changed modeling view in light of your past arguments including that this view can be applied to ANY information. This led me to an epiphany of sorts, which I think captures the essence of what you have been arguing and that I will describe now in a generic way.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">I want to focus on the information modeling aspects only and avoid, at least for now, any consideration of what the current OAIS RM figures and text allow or don’t allow. <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">If one simply creates a model where PDI is associated only with the Data Object, and no longer with Representation Information, the result looks like our Information Object (Figure 4-10) with the addition of PDI being associated with the Data Object. This new figure would show a PDI object being contained in the Information Object (and say positioned to the left of the Data Object in Figure 4-10), with an arrow from the Data Object to the PDI object labeled ‘further described by’ in analogy to Figure 4-13. Since this is a new figure, let’s call this Information Object Plus (or IO+) to avoid controversy. The beauty of this figure, which I think you have in mind, is that it can be viewed as a generic view of how to preserve a Data Object. In other words, a properly preserved Data Object should have both Representation Information and PDI. In this sense, I think a better term for this model would be a Preserved Data Object (PDO), which term I’ll now use. From this perspective, I can understand its proposed role of being applied to ANY Data Object that the Archive is intending to preserve. If that Data Object is a NASA generated image, it says that the preserved version should have both Rep. Info. and PDI. If that Data Object is a Representation Information Data Object, then it should have its own Representation Information and its own PDI. If that Data Object is a PDI Data Object, then is should also have its own Representation Information and its own PDI. This of course leads to recursion of both Rep. Info. and PDI, both of which need to be limited and this would need to be addressed in any discussion of such a PDO model. The only provision I would add is that both the Rep. Info. and the PDI would need to be optional in the sense that a ‘naked’ or ‘partially dressed’ Data Object needs to be allowed in order to stop the recursion. Of course the stopping criteria are different between the Rep. Info. and the PDI. <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">I see this as an alternative way to look at the preservation environment of Data Objects being preserved within the Archive.

It has a ‘bottom up’ aspect (starting with Data Objects) versus a ‘top down’ information aspect, and that could be useful in the auditing efforts. However I don’t see it as a replacement for the current models and approach which is why I recommend it be in an Annex.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">Below I have just a few minor comments on your comments.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 12pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><br class=""><br class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></p></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 12pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><br class=""><br class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></p></div><blockquote style="margin-top: 5pt; margin-bottom: 5pt;" class="" type="cite"><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">On Jun 5, 2018, at 2:10 PM, David Giaretta <<a href="mailto:david@giaretta.org" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class=""><span style="color: purple;" class="">david@giaretta.org</span></a>> wrote:<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">Just a few corrections where Don has slightly mistaken what I said.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><i class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">" David raises the issue that, well, the high level model view of figure 2-3 doesn’t say how the PDI is preserved"</span></i><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">No I did not say that; I simply asked how PDI is preserved - not referencing any particular figure.

The terms you mention are defined to be as unambiguous as we can make them. When we use them, we want them to mean precisely the same thing wherever they are used.

In figure 2-4 the SIPs are used to create the Content Information, and as Mark notes, then the PDI for that Content Information can be obtained/created and associated. In this sense, the PDI is supplementary to the Content Information and would not exist but for the Content Information. The result is an AIP for storage in the Archive. In the above scenario, which is at the heart of OAIS, there is no implication that the PDI described above would be taken to be Content Information. They are clearly distinct categories of information with likely different sources and with the PDI being subservient to the Content Information. This is the top level view that sets the context for understanding the role played by the Producer and the relationships among the types of information objects.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">David raises the issue that, well, the high level model view of figure 2-3 doesn’t say how the PDI is preserved and this is a concern. But note that it doesn’t say how the Content Information is preserved either. It simply says they are preserved as part (contained) of the AIP. So at this high level, they are all understood to be preserved as part of a specific AIP. I think this is a fair understanding that most people will agree with.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">Expanding the model of an AIP, we get figure 4-10 which defines an Information Object. This applies to the Content Information because it is defined to be an Information Object. We see that it consists of a Data Object and its Representation Information.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">Further expanding inside the AIP with figure 4-11 we see the Representation Information detailed as being composed of three types of Representation Information and with a recursion relation that ends at some point (not germane for this discussion).<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">Still inside the AIP, and further clarifying the nature of PDI and Representation Information, we have figure 4-12 that describes both of them as Information Objects, which means they also have Data Objects and Representation Information. The result at this point is a set of data objects, all logically inside a single AIP, whose number is limited because the Representation Information recursion is limited. They are preserved by virtue of their logical inclusion inside the AIP.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">Now the question is asked, since we thought that PDI was important in the preservation of the Content Information, which is the Content Data Object and its Representation Information, why isn’t it also important to associate secondary PDI with the original PDI? Well the answer is, it might or might not be depending on the Archive and the specific original PDI. If it is important, how should that be conceived and shown? Original PDI was associated with the Content Information. By analogy, secondary PDI would be associated with original PDI. This would be shown as a recursive relationship, but all still within the same AIP. We could include a diagram showing this recursion of PDI on PDI. This recursion ends when the Archive decides that it no longer makes sense to continue it. It may be different for the different components of PDI, which are shown in table 4-1 and listed in the text. The PDI diagram could be broken out further with these components, but I’m not sure it is worth it. Since they are classed as Information Objects, they could also be broken out in the Representation Information dimension but I see no need and this recursion is limited anyway.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">The point that I hope is becoming clear is that there is no need to reuse Content Information with all its implications from the high level model of an Information Package and apply it to PDI. This only promotes communication difficulties as the past two telcons and intervening messages have demonstrated. In fact, we should always try to avoid reusing the same terminology in different contexts where the meaning is different to some degree. That is certainly the case when wanting to apply Content Information to PDI. In short, there is no need. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">I recommend we put a simple diagram of PDI recursion into Section 4.2 and briefly talk about limiting the recursion by what the Archive finds is practical in each case.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">As a corollary, there is no need to remove PDI from being applied to Representation Information as is currently being proposed. David mentioned that he finds most archives are not applying PDI to Representation Information, but from a conceptual model perspective this is no justification as I, for one, have given several examples where it is relevant. If one want to see PDI on PDI made more explicit, then at least the possibility of PDI on Representation Information needs to be retained. There is absolutely no good reason to remove it from the conceptual model now that (I Hope!) were not trying to apply the AIP to PDI. There are instead very relevant reasons to keep it.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt;
