DESCRIPTION:Do you need a simple way to manage FAIR data while still keepin
 g rich metadata\, provenance\, and persistent identifiers?\n\nIn our light
  talk you will discover **Metafiles**\, a lightweight approach designed fo
 r research and digitalization projects where many datasets and files requi
 re structured metadata and clear relationships. The system combines **ARK 
 persistent identifiers**\, **structured XML metadata files**\, and a consi
 stent **RDF representation of metadata**  and stored efficiently in a rela
 tional database.\n\nInstead of relying on large infrastructures\, this app
 roach focuses on practical workflows researchers can integrate directly in
 to their projects. Metadata can be shared across related activities\, depe
 ndencies between datasets\, scripts\, and results can be captured through 
 machine-readable provenance\, and responsibilities for data management can
  be organized hierarchically across teams.\n\nAfter this light talk you wi
 ll better understand how persistent identifiers\, provenance\, and shared 
 metadata support scalable and reproducible research workflows while remain
 ing simple enough for everyday research use.
