However, the specific problems each module solves are common to migration processes in general. With the exception of Digitalmeasures Migrate, these modules are fairly generic and can be used for a variety of other migrations.

For more information on how this framework was used for a Digital Measure Migration, read:

* Case Study: University of Minnesota’s Provost Office
