Use case 11

KeithShortridge

A user wishes to make use of archived data, some time after it was originally archived, and possibly without access to a working copy of the software library used to create it. (As an example, imagine data archived using the original VMS BLISS library used for HDS - probably using VAX floating-point.) Note that 'make use of' implies the ability to understand the model used for the data as well as the ability to physically read the data.
