CoLab TWR Portal
The KIM Technology Watch Report (TWR) publishes news items and overview articles about relevant standards and developments in the field of metadata and interoperability. Contributions to the TWR can be in German and English and cover the technical aspect of interoperability, e.g. identifiers, data models, metadata vocabularies, formats, semantic web and document languages, but also their organizational and practical aspects, e.g. standardization initiatives, tools and innovative approaches from various fields, like web harvesting or long-term preservation.

The Technology Watch Report (TWR) is a joint activity with the "Kompetenzzentrum Interoperable Metadaten" (KIM) and the DINI-Working-Group "Internationale Standardisierung in der digitalen Informationsbeschaffung" (DINI-AG Standards ).

For questions and comments, please contact Andreas Gros.

Are you a TWR author or editor? Then you may be looking for the Internal TWR Wiki. There you can find also the Author's Guidelines for the TWR.
