Representation Information for Interoperability Now and with the Future
David Giaretta, Stephen Rankin, Brian McIlwrath, Adam Rusbridge, Manjula Patel · 2006

A fundamental role is played by the information model which defines representation information. We argue that representation information is a key concept both for the preservation of digital information as well as interoperability in the era of globally distributed data.
