The EU-funded project European Cultural Heritage Online (ECHO) aims to integrate resources from various domains within the field of cultural heritage, and make them available on the Internet. To accomplish this integration it is necessary to describe the various resources in a way that will achieve cross-domain interoperability. This description of digital resources is commonly referred to as metadata. The most well known and used metadata standard is the Dublin Core Metadata Element Set, a general standard developed for the purpose of describing all types of digital resources. Since the mid-1990?s a large number of specialized standards have emerged in different communities, for example IMDI, designed for detailed description of language resources. This thesis aims to examine the possibility of combining a general and a specialized metadata standard to achieve cross-domain interoperability and at the same time provide a sufficiently detailed description of language resources for researchers within the field of linguistics. A combination of two (or more) metadata standards in a compound schema is called an application profile. The purpose of an application profile is to provide a tailor-made schema for a specific context. The present study examines the semantic and structural problems c...
