Definition


The set of all Descriptors for a given Producer-Archive Project. The model of objects for transfer (MOT) is used jointly by the Producer and the Archive to provide a common and understandable hierarchical view of the Producer’s Data Objects to be transferred and their organization into collections.

MOTs are hierarchical structures that illustrate conceptual levels of arrangement within a fonds or collection registered in the /wiki/spaces/APM/pages/90538072. The Data Objects to be transferred are organized as Transfer Objects, which are organized as collections. A MOT typically has collections of collections.

Relationship between MOTs and digital forensics


A producer-archive project could involve a MOT that specifies acceptable structure of forensic disk images created during the transfer phase.

ISO 20652:2006 (PAIMAS)CCSDS 651.0-M-1, Section 3.1.2.1 (Preliminary phase, actions P3 through P-8)This is the primary starting point and it is important at this stage to clearly define and delimit the information which constitutes the primary object of the Producer-Archive Project. If there are still some open options, this is the time to make these explicit. The preliminary phase cannot be completed until this has been accomplished.
ISO 20652:2006 (PAIMAS)CCSDS 651.0-M-1, Section 3.2.2.1 (Formal definition phase, actions F-3 through F-12)This subsection discusses the precise definition of the information to be transferred from the Producer to the Archive. This definition is a formal model of objects to be delivered.
