Abstract

This paper explores medatada capital via linked open metadata vocabularies, specifically via the HIVE (Helping Interdisciplinary Vocabulary Engineering) initiative in the U.S. DataNet Federation Consortium (DFC). Formulas representing 'Capital-sigma notation' and 'Succesive growth rates' are introduced as potential means for quanitifying metadata capital. A conclusion summarizes this paper and identitifies next steps.
