ERIM Project Report Released - Review of the State of the Art of the Digital Curation of Research Data
6 May, 2010 | in Publications
By: Chris Rusbridge
The report examines models and terminology already in use to describe digital curation, digital repositories, data lifecycles and data processing. It summarizes the guidance provided by research funders, data centres and curation specialists on curating digital data, alongside any requirements they impose. Finally, it provides a brief overview of standards and tools of particular relevance to the ERIM project, and draws lessons from the introduction of a new curation policy at the World Data Center for Climate.

I2S2 project
I2S2 project
The aim of the Infrastructure for Integration in Structural Sciences (I2S2) project was to uncover what’s needed to implement a data-driven research infrastructure in the structural sciences – chemistry in particular. Issues of scale, complexity and inter-disciplinary research throughout the data lifecycle were explored over 18 months from October 2009 to March 2011.
