TermDefinition
collectionA folder for a dataset or project. A collection might have one or more collections within it. A collection can be identified by a custom collection type such as Project, Study, Sample, and so on, the default being Folder.
collection pathThe unique location of each collection in DME.
metadataAttribute values associated with your data in the archive. Metadata describe the data, such as the date and origin of creation, its contents, its condition, its processing, or its associations to other objects. Metadata can make data searches faster, more specific, and also enable and promote data sharing among scientists. The system automatically generates some metadata for each collection or file in the archive. Some data might also have custom (user-defined) attributes. The DOC policy file specifies the required attributes for each collection type. If the DOC policy file specifies that a particular attribute is required for a particular collection type, then DME requires a value for that attribute during registration. 
attributeA field for a piece of information that helps to describe your data.
data object or data fileA file that will be or has been uploaded to DME. It can be a single file or a compressed file.
data file pathThe unique location of each data file in DME.
synchronousTransfer of files using processes that run sequentially. This type of transfer is not optimal for large files.
asynchronousHigh performance transfer (upload or download) of large files, using processes that run independently of other processes.
Globus

A program that supports asynchronous transfer of large files. For instructions, refer to Preparing to Use Globus. For Globus-specific terms, refer to the following glossary:
