Preservation Identifier

screenshot-preservation-identifierThe Preservation Identifier (PI) is used to provide alternative software packages, tools, or formats for files in TIMBUS context models. The artifacts for which replacements should be determined are specified in a risk file. Using the context model and the risk file the PI creates alternative context models, where one artifact is replaced by a suitable replacement in each alternative model.
