Exposing Compound Objects for Repositories
eco4r looks very promising.
Exposing Compound Objects for Repositories Compound digital objects are increasingly relevant in the context of modern scientific work and information exchange. Publications enriched with all kinds supplementary materials will give scientists a better and easier access to relevant data and informations. Nevertheless new techniques are required to expose and distribute compound objects. ECO4R will enhance the theory and praxis of dealing with these materials in open access related environments.
