Please use the following as guidelines for your paper submission. There is no requirement that all points within each section applicable to your work must be covered. This information will help establish a roadmap for the digital preservation interoperability framework, which will guide the focus and priority of the standard work for the ISO/IEC JTC 1 Study Group on Digital Content Management and Protection (SGDCMP) on digital preservation. Guidlines in PDF is available here.

Content Organization

Impact

1. Describe the given content's impact within the related field, or in other fields
2. Describe what happens if the given content is lost
3. Describe how digital preservation maximizes the value of the content

Content

1. Describe content size (PB/TB/GB) and how often they get accessed
2. Describe the scope of content collections and how they get distributed
