An article was recently posted to the Archives and Archivists listserv that offers a glimpse into the latest technology being developed to handle large amounts of digital records. The gist is that the National Archives turned to the Texas Advanced Computing Center to create a way to analyze the huge amount of files they received from the previous Presidency. The result was a system that uses treemap visualization to represent metadata, file formats, and preservation levels. Click on the link for the full article.
Also, I posted a new discussion on the Facebook page. With summer coming up, my attention has turned to the projects that I would like to accomplish between semesters. Your feedback is greatly appreciated in evaluating my progress and in suggesting changes that you feel need to be made.
