Abstract

CASRAI and CERIF are international standardisation initiatives in the domain of Research Information Management. CASRAI develops and maintains a standard extensible vocabulary and exchangeable data profiles that reflect the business requirements of involved stakeholders. A data profile specifies the maximal ideal space of its application with compliant data records. CERIF is a data model supplying standard formal syntax and declared semantics to preserve the meaning inherent in identified requirements. It enables the transformation of conceptual descriptions into formal representation thereof and thus their meaningful re-use as well as a semantically compliant and syntactically valid data interchange. With this paper we share the experience, and the lessons learned from the transformation of CASRAI profiles into CERIF XML through the example of an Abridged CV.
