초록

1990년부터 2003년까지 운용된, Computer Interchange of Museum Information (CIMI)는 국제 박물관 사회에 메타데이터 산업표준 채택의 개념을 고안해내고, 소개하는 역할을 했다. CIMI 컨소시엄은 이러한 기본임무를 넘어서, 표준구조 (Standard Framework), 프로파일, 테스트베드 (testbeds), 주요 메타데이터 저작물, 다운로드가능 무료 메타데이터 소프트웨어나 프로토콜등을 생산했고, 새로운 프로젝트에 대한 산업적 안내 및 지원을 제공했다. 하지만, CIMI의 가장 중요한 성취물은 아마도 표준기반 접근의 중요성과 유용성과 CIMI 표준 프레임워크의 실행의 필요성에 대한 강조일 것이다. 이로 인해CIMI의 가동기간동안, 박물관들은 각자의 요구를 충족시키기 위해 새로운 표준/모델의 고안이나 소프트웨어의 개발에 따른 비용부담없이, 메타데이터 모델 혹은 표준의 이용법을 습득하는 것으로 각자의 이득을 거둬 들일 수 있었다. 비록 CIMI의 가동은 2003년으로 중단되었지만, 박물관 관련 메타데이터 응용과 연구에 미친 유산과 영향력은 막대하다고 할 수 있다. 본 논문은 CIMI가 박물관 메타데이터 분야 다음 세대 개발자들에게 남긴 유산을 살펴보고 예상되는 후속프로젝트 및 연구를 살펴본다.

The Computer Interchange of Museum Information (CIMI), operating from 1990-2003, was charged with creating and introducing the international museum community to the concept of adopting metadata industry standards. The CIMI consortium exceeded its original mission by; creating a standards framework, profile, testbeds, important metadata publications, free downloadable metadata software and protocols, and providing instrumental guidance and support in development of new projects. However, CIMI's emphasis on the importance and utility of a standards-based approach and the necessity for implementing the CIMI Standards Framework is probably its most important achievement. During CIMI's tenure, museums reaped the benefits by learning how to apply the model and standards to meet their individual needs while not having to invent new ones or bear the cost of software development. Although CIMI operations ceased in 2003, its impacts on museum related metadata application and research were unprecedented in that it provided the standards prototype and foundations on which to build. This paper discusses what CIMI bequeathed to the next generation of museum metadata field developers and describes the anticipated realm of future projects and advancement.
