From XML to MARC: RDF Behind the Scenes
Nicolas, Yann
We collect heterogeneous metadata packages from various publishers. Although all of them are in XML, they vary a lot in terms of vocabulary, structure, granularity, precision, and accuracy. It is quite a challenge to cope with this jungle and recycling it to meet the needs of the Sudoc, the French academic union cataloguing system. How to integrate and enrich these metadata? How to integrate them in order to process them in a regular way, not through ad hoc processes? How to integrate them with specific or generic controlled vocabularies ? How to enrich them with author identifiers, for instance? RDF looks like the ideal solution for integration and enrichment. Metadata are stored in the Virtuoso RDF database and processed through a workflow steered by the Oracle DB. We will illustrate this generic solution with Oxford UP metadata: ONIX records for printed books and KBART package description for ebooks. So. A relational database as glue and pipeline engine… RDF as internal model… MARC as output …. Quite weird… Was this abstract written by an ELAG-specific random text generator?

This diploma thesis aim at the implementation of metadata in the context of data warehouses and Business Intelligence. Metadata can provide significant benefits to the organization, help address regulatory requirements, and increase the use of BI tools to prevent user denial. The main goals of the diploma thesis are the metadata integration according to the theoretical knowledge from the first part of this thesis and the practical implementation of the solution of consolidating business and technical metadata in the second part of the thesis. The first chapter defines the goals of the work and the expected benefits. The second chapter defines the concept of metadata, types and standards. Chapter three provide metadata context in the perspective of company's data governance, and summarize an analytical market for metadata and data integration tools. The fourth chapter evaluates the usability of metadata based on research on the subject. The fifth chapter describes one of the possible metadata integration solutions according to the theoretical knowledge summarized in the preceding chapters. The sixth chapter summarizes the practical experience of implementing the solution into the insurance company BI environment. The main contribution of the thesis is the description of implementation of the real solution and its evaluation.

Processing image metadata in XSLT/XQuery
Šubrt, Matěj ; Kosek, Jiří (advisor) ; Vojíř, Stanislav (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with how to obtain information from image formats, especially those that use Exif specification for storing metadata, which offers a lot of information about the image. The work focuses on creating a library that gets these meta-data from the image using XSLT, XQuery and XPath. A simple application/transformation is also part of the work, which can extract the metadata from the enclosed images and display them to the user.

The use of metadata in an environment of Self-Service Business Intelligence
Šebák, Ctibor ; Matějka, Martin (advisor) ; Novotný, Ota (referee)
This bachelor thesis is focused on the use of metadata in an environment of Self-Service Business Intelligence. Metadata are structured data that contain information used to de-scribe other data. They contain information about the origin, purpose, location, content and other properties of said data. The main advantage of the self-service BI tools lies in the fact, that the end user customizes the outputs of said tools (reports, data visualizations, etc.) to his own liking. The aim of this thesis is to briefly explain and define the concept of Self-Service Business Intelligence and the concept of metadata, to describe the purpose and benefits of using business metadata. Furthermore, to explore the possibilities of selected tools in context of metadata, more importantly - business metadata. The main contribution of this work is to reveal the possibilities of working with business metadata for selected tools and its empiric testing.
