BS 8419-2 Interoperability between metadata systems used for learning, education and training. Code of practice for the development of interoperability between application profiles Provides recommendations for methodologies that will enable developers and implementers to maximize interoperability, focusing on how to make data transfer between metadata systems as automatic as possible. The standard makes recommendations about data models and XML bindings enabling searches across multiple systems over the internet for application profiles but does not prescribe the use of any particular encoding mechanism. It is intended to optimize, rather than completely remove, human interaction in the transfer of information between systems. Part 2 provides recommendations for methodologies that will enable developers and implementers to maximize interoperability, focusing on how to make data transfer between metadata systems as automatic as possible. It describes an overall approach for maximizing interoperability, which is applicable across different types of interoperability requirement. It exists alongside a number of relevant international and national frameworks and emerging standards pertaining to metadata and interoperability, including: 4Industry
standards and specifications such as those issued by the IEEE, the IMS
