RE: Modeling relationship between data and data-oriented software

  Hallo Makx, 

    thank you for the valuable pointer! Since we several times informally mentioned the importance of
   modeling software related to processing / production / delivery of data I hoped this topic was of a broader
   interest.
   
   Let me better understand what distinguishes DCAT Dataset from ADMS Asset and when the latter is applicable: 

    "Therefore the difference in user expectation is at the heart of what distinguishes ADMS as a profile of DCAT". 
    
   With a target domain of eGovernment in mind ADMS seems to target end users interested in immediate reading, 
   intellectual consumption (or execution) of "assets" and not in their arbitrary processing. Applications used for this 
   purpose are commonly known and self-evident (text editor, web browser etc.). DCAT Datasets (Assets's superclass) 
   seem to be more a "raw data", less suitable for humans than for tools and algorithms, right?

      Best regards
    Jaroslav
