What is a System?
A system is a network of interdependent components that work together to try to accomplish the aim of the system.
A system must have an aim.
Without an aim, there is no system.
The aim of the system must be clear to everyone in the system.
The aim must include plans for the future.
The aim is a value judgement.
W. Edwards Deming(1900 - 1993)

The Old Days

Friendly Federation•Exchanging data between friends
doesn’t need a standards architecture
•A federation is a closed system
•Producer and consumers are similar
• A single exchange format can be agreed on
•e.g. Federated herbarium search

The Future
![Page 6: TDWG Standards Roadmap Roger Hyam (Technical Architecture Group)](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081515/56649ed05503460f94bdda39/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Stranger Danger•Exchanging data with strangers is
different
•Multipurpose and mixed types of data
•Producer doesn’t know consumer
•Consumer doesn’t know producer
•Data flows through different routes
•e.g. GBIF & EoL & ‘an ecologist’

The Architecture
![Page 9: TDWG Standards Roadmap Roger Hyam (Technical Architecture Group)](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081515/56649ed05503460f94bdda39/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
GUIDs Ontology
Exchange Protocols
Data Integration

GUIDs
![Page 11: TDWG Standards Roadmap Roger Hyam (Technical Architecture Group)](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081515/56649ed05503460f94bdda39/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What are GUIDs?
•An Identifier (an identity?)
•Unique
•Global in scope
•Resolvable (an address)
![Page 12: TDWG Standards Roadmap Roger Hyam (Technical Architecture Group)](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081515/56649ed05503460f94bdda39/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Are GUIDs Good?
Yes!
![Page 13: TDWG Standards Roadmap Roger Hyam (Technical Architecture Group)](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081515/56649ed05503460f94bdda39/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Why GUIDs are Good•Multiple Routes Problem
•Are these the same ‘real’ thing?
•Ownership & Trust
•Has this been changed?
•Is it out of date?
•Who do I credit for this?
•GUIDs are the most important part of the architecture

Ontology
![Page 15: TDWG Standards Roadmap Roger Hyam (Technical Architecture Group)](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081515/56649ed05503460f94bdda39/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
What is an Ontology?
![Page 16: TDWG Standards Roadmap Roger Hyam (Technical Architecture Group)](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081515/56649ed05503460f94bdda39/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
TDWG Ontology•A Dictionary
•A list of shared concepts
•Classes
•Properties
•Instances
•URI - for each concept
•Answers the question “What is it?”
![Page 17: TDWG Standards Roadmap Roger Hyam (Technical Architecture Group)](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081515/56649ed05503460f94bdda39/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Protocols
![Page 18: TDWG Standards Roadmap Roger Hyam (Technical Architecture Group)](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081515/56649ed05503460f94bdda39/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What Protocols?•TAPIR is the future for XML based
services
•OAI-PMH is a possibility for harvest
•Delimited Files are happening in 2009
•Do what your project says you should do
•We still can’t make a general ‘publish like this’ recommendation.
