This paper contains an analysis of the methods that have been used to achieve or improve interoperability among metadata and discuss the possibilities and limits of semantic interoperability among metadata using crosswalk. After that a semantic metadata mapping process which is able to maximize the interoperability among metadata is suggested. The methodology consists of four steps such as identifying metadata schema, finding common data element concepts(DECs), grouping attributes by the DECs, and mapping into a table. An experimental application of the process was performed onto two human resource information metadata standards developed in Korea.

The Dublin Core, MARC. IFLA-FRBR user communities are developing international standards for describing textual, physical and audiovisual resources to enable their resources discovery over the Internet. Therefore the metadata interoperability Problem has been exacerbated by the need for more complex metadata descriptions. In this paper we propose a new mechanism for metadata interoperability based on the new semantic web applications : IFLA-FRBR framework, INDECS metadata and an event-aware ABC models. This study introduces a new approach method which is essential to the generation of interoperable metadata descriptions, particularly in the context of multimedia contents.

This study aims to develop metadata elements and vocabularies of 'Chosunsibo' issued in Korea during the Japanese colonial era. Despite the vast amount and historical values, newspaper articles in Chosunsibo are still unsearchable and difficult to access. To the end, this study includes as follows: (1) analyzed the DB construction and metadata elements of newspapers issued in Korea during the Japanese colonial, (2) investigated the morphological characteristics and content of 'Chosunsibo', and (3) derived metadata elements, encoding schemes and controlled vocabularies for 'Chosunsibo'. The final draft was verified in three methods: (1) review and revise through data input tests, (2) consulting by a DB expert agency, and (3) drawing up of crosswalks with metadata standards and related cases. The scope of this study is to design the metadata schema of the historical newspaper 'Chosunsibo' and develop a data input system based on that schema.

Recently, many academic fields are developing metadata to manage data produced in the field. Metadata to support a specific academic field beyond the general field is considered essential for searching, managing, sharing, and reusing research data in the field. Therefore, in this study, metadata items were derived to manage research data produced in forestry engineering. In order to derive metadata items, mapping work was performed on 7 metadata such as FGDC-CSDGM, ISO 19115, NEFIS, INSPIRE, ANZLIC, DataCite 4.3, and TTA.KO-10.0976. As a result of this study, 6 mandatory, 13 recommendations and 9 optional elements were derived. The derived metadata can be used as an item to systematically manage research data in the field of forestry engineering.

The purpose of this study was to designed the structure and elements of metadata that can manage and share research data produced in the food composition database. In order to derive metadata elements, mapping crosswalk was performed on 5 metadata such as DCAT, DataCite metadata schema 4.4, TTAK.KO-10.0976, AgMES, and FoodData Central. As a result of the study, the top 15 elements of the 'Resource information' metadata were derived, and 7 mendatory, 3 recommended and 5 optional elements, and the 'Composition analysis' metadata included 8 mendatory, 3 recommended and 1 optional element were derived to describe food composition research data, respectively. The derived metadata elements will be used as an item for systematic management of food composition data and can be used as basic data for sharing with domestic and international food composition databases.

The purpose of this study is to design the metadata for sharing and efficiently using the informations of Earth Observations in Korea. Recently the GEO(Group on Earth Observations) has been starting to manage all nation's informations in a way that benefits the environment as well as humanity by taking a pulse of the plants. For that reason, we have to construct the infra-system to manage and integrate the 12 social benefit areas in Korea; disaster, health, energy, climate, water, biodiversity, agriculture, forest, ocean, space information and geographical information system(GIS). But these informations have only been managed with varied metadatas in each area of observation, and then it is difficult to integrate varied informations. In this study, we solve the problem with meta-metadata.

This study reviewed theories for database integration, which combines heterogeneous data structures, and suggested a practical method to integrate databases of Korean Research Memory(KRM) and Infrastructural Basic Research(IBR) as a case study. In order to broadly distribute the outcomes of IBR, it is essential to be connected to and integrated with the database of KRM. As a solution, it was suggested that the current database of IBR should follow standard guidelines as a XML database, and its future database should be integrated with the database of KRM or be established as a stand-alone system
