Producer-Archive Workflow Network (PAWN)

Overview

PAWN is designed to address issues arising during the ingest phase of digital objects into an archive or large repository. It's main goal is to assist archvists by providing as much context about an object as it exists in it's original environment. For developers, it provides a platform to create submission packages that can be published into a variety of backend storage systems.
