It reveals common features, hidden assumptions, and ubiquitous patterns among these methods and shows how data are actually structured and described independently from particular trends and technologies. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Examples of data structuring methods analyzed critically include: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eEncodings (e.g. Unicode)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIdentifiers and Identifier systems (e.g. ISBN)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFile systems\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDatabase Systems (record databases, relational databases, NoSQL...)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eData structuring languages (JSON, XML, CSV, RDF...)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003emarkup languages (SGML, HTML, TEI, Markdown...)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSchema languages (BNF, XSD, RDFS, OWL, SQL...)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConceptual modeling languages (ERM, ORM, UML, DSL...)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConceptual diagrams\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e It is shown how particular method of data structuring and description can best be categorized by their primary purpose. The study further exposes five basic paradigms that deeply shape how data is structured and described in practice. The third results is a \u003cem\u003epattern language of data structuring\u003c\/em\u003e. Patterns show problems and solutions which occur over and over again in data. Each pattern is described with its benefits, consequences, pitfalls, and relations to other patterns. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e The results can help to better understand data and its actual forms, both for consumption and creation of data. Possible applications include data analysis, data modeling, data archaeology, and data literacy. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 286\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 06, 2013\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52492498469171,"sku":"9781490931869","price":24.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/dHh5cXFvdk9JdmQ1eVQwWm13ZVkxZz09.webp?v=1759935537","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/describing-data-patterns-a-general-deconstruction-of-metadata-standards-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
