Incidentally, notice that DCMI vocabulary terms are not case-sensitive, since they will often be used in case-insensitive contexts such as HTML (pre-XHTML, that is).
But DCMI is particularly well suited for embedding within XML generally.
The terms included in DCMI are divided into a minimal set of base elements and an optional collection of refinements to these base elements.
順便説一下,DCMI詞彙表術語是大小寫不敏感的,因為常常被用於大小寫不敏感的上下文,如HTML(即XHTML的前身)。
The basic 15 elements of DCMI are normally given a dc: namespace, but supplemental terms and refinements are generally placed in the dcterms: namespace.
Instead, DCMI is a generic framework for describing a broadly useful collection of information about documents of all sorts.
不過,dc:名稱空間不是DCMI推薦的唯一名稱空間。
I only left in section headings, but you can see how DCMI terms can usefully annotate each section element as specific to that subdocument.
DCMI中的術語被劃分成最小化的基本元素集和對這些基本元素細化的可選集。
除了標準化元數據術語之外,DCMI還提供了根據枚舉或者模式規範選擇值的建議。
