Transcription

1 Title Here Advancing the fourth paradigm of research: Assimilating repositories into active research phases Tyler Walters Dean, University Libraries, Virginia Tech SPARC Conference, Kansas City, March 12, 2012 Title Here, Optional or Unit Identifier

2 The Rise of Virtual Environments Repositories are being woven into virtual ecosystems, they are holistic and support communities of practice Early stages / deposit: raw/early phase data, notes, etc. Annotating, sharing within research groups, commenting, etc. Research proposal writing, project planning, etc. Tools: Discovery, analysis, visualization, and text/data/image mining are being used in concert with repositories Virtual communities and their communication tools e.g., social media and community networking capabilities 2

3 Which projects are highlighted? TARDIS Purdue University Research Repository PURR 3

4 e-research Protein Crystallography Research Data and Metadata Workflow Version 0.9 3/6/2011 Researcher's Computer Computer Cluster ' RM4 Research Admin Repository MX1 / MX2 Beamline Synchrotron Metaman MyTardis MyTardis Monash Raw Data Metadata Protein Crystallography Extraction Research Data Management Platform (for raw, processed, refined, and published data) The Australian Repositories for Diffraction ImageS From Capture to Publication ORCA Metadata Harvester Australian Research Data Commons MyTardis Future?: Virtual lab system Institutional Research Data Registry MyTardis Institutional Research Data Registry MyTardis Institutional Research Data Registry LEGEND Data & Metadata Metadata Proposed

5 Early Stage/Deposit Move curation upstream in the data/information life cycle Automatically capture metadata, defined by the data producers Provide facilities for annotation and mark-up of data 5

6 Early Stage: The Active Curation Model Active Curation Social Media Workflows Data Review Rating Commenting Metadata

7 Tools and Toolkits A Critical Intersection in the Virtual Ecosystem is: Tools + Repositories Developing toolkits for discovery, analysis, visualization, and text/data/image mining all are being used with repositories Leveraging existing tools (open source and proprietary) Incorporating custom, discipline-specific tools 7

8 Tools & Toolkits Functionality: By data type Search Visualization Subsetting Analysis Services 8

9 Investigator Toolkit Activities (from DataONE) Plan Kepler Analyze DMP-Tool Collect Integrate Assure Discover Describe Preserve

10 Co-authorship Co-funding Micro-citation Shared project repositories Shared tags Threaded discussions Communities and Quoting, forwarding, (reviewing, commenting) Communication (slide from SEAD)

11 Working Group Support File share Wikis To do lists Blogs Calendars Forums Project notes Commenting Tagging Proposal writing 11

12 How do IRs and papers fit in? IRs are being leveraged in these new developments Services over an active content layer that is backed by/ harvested into a federated archive infrastructure based on institutional resources Content Mining Network of Data Producers Web User Interface Active Content Repository Services Provided Curation Decisions Archival data generation Virtual Archives Other services Institutional Repositories (slide from SEAD) Data Conservancy IU RPI UIUC UM ICPSR User Network

13 Linked Data and Repositories Tag and annotate data Overlay it with reference data Organize it in domain terminology Link it to people, papers, projects, conversations (slide from SEAD)
