20 November 2003TF-AACE Workshop, Malaga2 Outline Scope and terminology The JISC Information Environment (IE) The UK “Common” Information Environment (CIE) Architecture Standards Summary and conclusions

20 November 2003TF-AACE Workshop, Malaga3 Terminology What do we mean by “information environment”? Originally a set of standards and services to facilitate access to electronic (digital library) materials Now being extended in scope, e.g. to accessing repositories of e-learning objects, e-prints, e-theses, etc.

20 November 2003TF-AACE Workshop, Malaga4 The JISC IE Supports the actions Search Locate Request Retrieve/use Access to community resources and to licensed (publishers') databases e.g. e-journals, e-books, images, time- based media etc.

20 November 2003TF-AACE Workshop, Malaga5 The “Common” IE (CIE) A much wider UK public sector partnership JISC Museums/Galleries/Public Libraries The British Library National Health Service e-Science Core Programme Aim is to provide consistent access for the UK public across a wide spread of publicly-funded work

20 November 2003TF-AACE Workshop, Malaga6 The IE Architecture JISC-funded content providers institutional content providers external content providers brokersaggregatorscataloguesindexes institutional portals subject portals learning management systems media-specific portals end-user desktop/browser presentation fusion provision OpenURL resolvers shared infrastructure authentication/authorisation (Athens) JISC IE service registry institutional profiling services user preferences services resolvers metadata schema registries

20 November 2003TF-AACE Workshop, Malaga7 APIs and protocols Search (Z39.50, SRW) Gather (OAI-PMH) Alert (RSS/http) ResolveMetadata (OpenURL/http) GetContent (URL/http)

20 November 2003TF-AACE Workshop, Malaga8 Where are we now? JISC IE progress (end-2003) Some infrastructure services in place and fully operational (e.g. AAI via Athens) Some at advanced pilot stage (e.g. Service Registry) Some just being designed (e.g. Licence Tables and Institutional Data) Development phase of IE portals just coming to completion (see later) OpenURL resolver infrastructure well advanced

20 November 2003TF-AACE Workshop, Malaga9 Portals programme Targeting a number of potential application areas Subject (discipline) portals Media type portals (e.g. images, films) Community portals (e.g. E-learning) Successful prototype portal framework just delivered Built on Apache Jetspeed Cross-searching of back-end resources Links to JISC AAI (Athens)

20 November 2003TF-AACE Workshop, Malaga10 The IE Architecture JISC-funded content providers institutional content providers external content providers brokersaggregatorscataloguesindexes institutional portals subject portals learning management systems media-specific portals end-user desktop/browser presentation fusion provision OpenURL resolvers shared infrastructure authentication/authorisation (Athens) JISC IE service registry institutional profiling services user preferences services resolvers metadata schema registries

20 November 2003TF-AACE Workshop, Malaga11 CIE progress Starting much later than JISC IE and building on it Two demonstrators completed Summer 2003 –One for health-related information –One for geographically-indexed information (specifically historical data) Project leader for next phases just appointed Public launch for politicians to take place soon

20 November 2003TF-AACE Workshop, Malaga12 Conclusions The JISC IE is a very significant infrastructure programme AAI is only one component among a range of shared infrastructural services Being built over several years Both the lower level services and the presentation layer are now coming to fruition The CIE is a collaboration across multiple agencies, with similar goals Possibly with more eventual impact
