Format's Overview
As part of the protocol there will be developed basic set of formats defined across a variety of data types. These formats should be included in the standard catalog node “XBUP Project”, which is managed along the basic protocol and is intended primarily for testing the principles of the Protocol.
Format's Classification
Individual formats can be classified according to various criteria.
Classification Based on the Science Discipline
This classification is defined to encompass the various fields of scientific areas.
Classification by Human Body Senses
