It is advisable for actual instances of DataObjects to use those specific subproperties. Note to the developers: Please be aware of the distinction between containment relation and provenance. The isPartOf relation models physical containment, a nie:DataObject (e.g. an nfo:Attachment) is a 'physical' part of an nie:InformationElement (a nmo:Message). Also, please note the difference between physical containment (isPartOf) and logical containment (isLogicalPartOf) the former has more strict meaning. They may occur independently of each other.

This property is important for metadata extraction applications that don't receive any notifications of changes in the data source and have to poll it regularly. This may lead to information becoming out of date. In these cases this property may be used to determine the age of data, which is an important element of it's dependability.

comment: URL of a DataObject. It points to the location of the object. A typial usage is FileDataObject. In cases where creating a simple file:// or http:// URL for a file is difficult (e.g. for files inside compressed archives) the applications are encouraged to use conventions defined by Apache Commons VFS Project at http://jakarta.apache.org/ commons/ vfs/ filesystems.html.

DataObject
disjoint with: Nothing
subclass of: Resource
subclass of: Thing
type: Class
comment: A unit of data that is created, annotated and processed on the user desktop. It represents a native structure the user works with. The usage of the term 'native' is important. It means that a DataObject can be directly mapped to a data structure maintained by a native application. This may be a file, a set of files or a part of a file. The granularity depends on the user. This class is not intended to be instantiated by itself. Use more specific subclasses.

comment: Generic property used to express 'logical' containment relationships between DataObjects. NIE extensions are encouraged to provide more specific subproperties of this one. It is advisable for actual instances of InformationElement to use those specific subproperties. Note the difference between 'physical' containment (isPartOf) and logical containment (isLogicalPartOf)
