Research is critical to the advancement of both a basic understanding and the effective practice of digital preservation. Research must, however, be intimately linked to practice in order to improve outcomes. This panel will discuss methodology, metrics, tools, and exemplars that can effectively build the evidence base for digital preservation. Panelists will present on a simulation framework for evaluating preservation risks, formal/machine actionable preservation strategies and implementations; and evaluation of preservation performance.
