New MOU between Impact Centre of Competence and PREFORMA
The Impact Centre of Competence has signed a memorandum of understanding with the EU-funded project PREFORMA for a stronger cooperation.
Join PREFORMA in testing and improving the conformance checkers!
PREFORMA works on one of the main challenges that memory institutions (archives, museums, libraries, etc.) are facing nowadays: the long-term preservation of digital data. In particular, the project will offer memory institutions an open source conformance checker that controls if a file complies with standard specifications and with the acceptance criteria of the memory institution, thus giving them full control of the process of conformity testing of files to be created, migrated and ingested into archives.
