Software, necessary for enabling information within a digital object to be interacted with by a user, is often considered Representation Information. Without such software the object cannot exist as information to be interacted with. Furthermore, any change in the software may/will change the information that is made available for interaction by the user. Therefore the OAIS model should enable and require such software to be considered part of the digital object itself. In cases where the software is truely just providing additional meaning then it should still be considered Representation Information Euanc (talk) 14:25, 26 October 2015 (UTC)
