Abstract
This article considers some of the issues created in the preservation of digital artifacts by the entanglement of object creator, mediating processes, and object viewer. This includes the relationship between format and software characterization, the sometimes complex manner in which software engineering practice, even best practice, complicates the use and intelligibility of software over the long term, and the need to preserve not just versions, but also variant renderings of the same version of an artifact.
期刊介绍：
Information networking is an enabling technology with the potential to integrate and transform information provision, communication and learning. The New Review of Information Networking, published biannually, provides an expert source on the needs and behaviour of the network user; the role of networks in teaching, learning, research and scholarly communication; the implications of networks for library and information services; the development of campus and other information strategies; the role of information publishers on the networks; policies for funding and charging for network and information services; and standards and protocols for network applications.
