Title
Time Machine: Projecting the Digital Assets onto the Future Simulation Environment
Abstract
In this paper we present the Time Machine (TiM), an environment that simulates the digital assets onto the future and allows studying what self-preservation behaviors need the digital objects. This is based in computation intelligence and related methods of cost management under their own budget, powered by a social network as an environment that enables their behavior under the policy that preservation is to share. This approach contributes to achieve the following digital preservation requirements: adaption to unexpected situations, scalability, and efficient cost management, through an agent-based simulation. The key differentiation feature of TiM is that digital objects become active actors in their long term digital preservation, which has a digital preservation budget devoted to funding the replication of the objects and other operations such as format migration or finding a safe storage within a social network of users; in all, an environment where they will live. Its design considerations and implementation details are presented and, finally an example to illustrate some of the functionalities of the simulator.
