Models for Digital Humanities Tools: Coping with Technological Changes and Obsolescence
Abstract
This article highlights the importance of defining models and using modular software for digital humanities tools.We emphasize the need for these tools to adapt to the rapidly changing technology landscape, which has led to many tools having short lifespans. We propose an approach to address software obsolescence by using modular models. This involves designing tools to be easily integrated, scalable, and adaptable to changing technology and user requirements. To illustrate the usefulness of models, we present their application to a real-world use case: the CoPhi Editor web platform.
