TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyze the functional entities of the Open Archival Information System (OAIS), and point out convergences with Archival science, with a view to implementing a Trustworthy Digital Archival Repository (TDAR).
Abstract: Objective: analyze the functional entities of the Open Archival Information System (OAIS), and point out convergences with Archival science, with a view to implementing a Trustworthy Digital Archival Repository (TDAR). Methodology: review article is no systematic/narrative, based on a bibliographic survey of previously published materials, consisting of books, technical standards, and scientific articles retrieved by the Google Scholar tool and by the Information Science Database. Results: the functional model proposed by OAIS allows receiving, managing, and disseminating digital archival records. Its information flows are registered and guarantee the maintenance of authenticity in the face of actions carried out within the scope of the TDAR, such as migrations and additions of information necessary for preservation. This functional model addresses essential issues such as negotiating purchases, transfers, and collections with producers and custodians, in addition to managing access demands of consumers. Conclusions: the OAIS functional model makes it possible to properly receive the records, add necessary descriptive information, securely store records, manage preservation policies and facilitate dissemination to the designated community. Moreover, the OAIS model can be incorporated into the archives system, and be the basis for implementing the TDAR, thus, protecting the custody and guaranteeing continuous access to authentic digital records in the long term.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present Archivematica as a preservation platform, which plays its role as a component of a Trusted Digital Archival Repository, and two basic digital object collection scenarios: with archival digital chain of custody and with chain-of-custody rupture.
Abstract: This article presents the history and conceptualization of Archivematica, which was developed as a response to the need to develop an open-source digital preservation system (free software). The methodology adopted was that of exploratory, bibliographical and documentary research, having as main sources: reports, documentation, texts and scientific articles from national and international organizations, technologies, events and researchers. The article presents Archivematica as a preservation platform, which plays its role as a component of a Trusted Digital Archival Repository, and two basic digital object collection scenarios: with archival digital chain of custody and with chain of custody rupture. We conclude that the scenarios presented are just two of several possible scenarios in the preservation of digital objects using a preservation platform such as Archivematica, and that their proper use meets a Systemic Digital Preservation, which provides an archival digital chain of custody, aiming to maintain the reliability and authenticity of digital archival documents, with a holistic digital preservation approach, and not exclusively focused on the manual application of digital preservation strategies, which presuppose a rupture of the digital chain of custody, but rather incorporating and applying these strategies through an archival policy.
