Introduction Slides
Topics for Debate
- Simplicity of access to the repository.
- Creating an API that can map to many other technologies.
- Extensibility: more data, more types, more methods etc.
- Trust, validation and authentication of data.
- Implementation: does W3C design/prototype, or does W3C
build/own the DDR?
- Being inclusive: how to support standard, commercial and open
solutions simultaneously.
- What would be practical (simple and sufficient) for the
majority of "real" DDR users?
- Role of the User Agent header
The goal of the workshop is to explore the DDR design and
implementation issues, including the following:
- How to describe/represent the DDR interfaces.
- Lessons from existing distributed information
technologies.
- Data types and their representation within the DDR.
- Implementation of the DDR interfaces in various programming
languages.
- Key features of a good design for a simple distributed
system.
- The minimal set of information that the DDR needs to be useful
for content adaptation.
- Merging legacy and external device information into a new
common repository.
- The roles of other technologies such as CC/PP and UAProf.
- Overheads associated with global systems such as the DNS.
- Operational issues associated with distributed information
systems.
- Commercial opportunities for an operational DDR.
- Reliability and trust in distributed information systems.
