Software as an important method and output of research should follow the RDA "FAIR for Research Software Principles". In practice, this means that research software, whether open, inner or closed source, should be published with rich metadata to enable FAIR4RS.
For research software practitioners, this currently often means to follow an arduous and mostly manual process of software...
Data are an essential part of every scientific endeavour. An efficient and future oriented research data management is therefore essential in order to ensure long-term availability of the generated data. This in turn ensures the reproducibility of scientific results. In order to facilitate FAIR data management within the Helmholtz community the incubator platform “Helmholtz Metadata...
Manual data entry will always be part of data acquisition, at least to the level of comments, observations, ideas and decisions. Our use case of ExperimentLogging (ExL) at laser particle acceleration includes also the machine parameters, experiment parameters and detector settings, and was typically done as spreadsheet document tables. This hampers analysis due to scattered files and differing...
Nuclear astrophysics is at the intersection of nuclear physics and astrophysics, united in the quest of understanding the chemical evolution of the Universe. ChETEC-INFRA is an EU-supported starting community of research infrastructures for nuclear astrophysics, and networks complementary types of such infrastructures: nuclear laboratories supply data on astrophysical reactions, HPC facilities...
The OpenTransfer project was created to develop a new OPEN toolkit for Technology Transfer Offices. It aims to develop new approaches to industry interaction based on open science ideas.
Open has different flavours, and OpenTransfer aims to define and exploit them to maximize the impact of scientific results.
The major topics are:
- Business models based on Open IP
- Decision-making...
