In this webinar we will present an emulation-based solution for reading-rooms. In particular we will look at: tools for management of large collection, i.e. object characterization, […]

I read Johan's fascinating post this morning about the obsolescence of Quattro Pro formats. In the post he included a set of Quattro Pro spreadsheets and invited others to try to access them using the original software or an old version of Excel. Luckily I have an old version of Quattro Pro available so I thought I'd […]

While browsing ArchiveTeam's File Formats Wiki earlier this week, I came across some entries I created there on Quattro Pro spreadsheets two years ago.

bwFLA's Emulation-as-a-Service makes emulation widely available for non-experts and could prove emulation as a valuable tool in digital preservation workflows. Providing these emulation services to access preserved and archived digital objects poses further challenges to data management. Digital artifacts are usually stored and maintained in dedicated repositories and object owners want to – or are required […]
