Data occupy a key role in our information society. However, although the amount of published data continues to grow and terms such as deluge big today characterize numerous (research) initiatives, much work is still needed direction publishing order make them effectively discoverable, available, reusable by others. Several barriers hinder publishing, from lack attribution rewards, vague citation practices, quality issues rather general data‐sharing culture. Lately, journals have overcome...
The CODATA Data Science Journal is a peer-reviewed, open access, electronic journal, publishing papers on the management, dissemination, use and reuse of research data databases across all domains, including science, technology, humanities arts. scope journal includes descriptions systems, their implementations publication, applications, infrastructures, software, legal, reproducibility transparency issues, availability usability complex datasets, with particular focus principles, policies...
<p class="p1">Research data publishing is intended as the release of research to make it possible for practitioners (re)use them according "open science" dynamics. There are three main actors called deal with practices: researchers, publishers, and repositories. This study analyses solutions offered by generalist scientific repositories, i.e., repositories supporting deposition any type data. These cannot assumption on application domain. They actually face almost open ended typologies used...
The term Digital Libraries corresponds to a very complex notion with several diverse aspects and cannot be captured by simple definition. A robust model of encapsulating the richness these perspectives is required. This need has led drafting Library Manifesto, aim which set foundations identify cornerstone concepts within universe Libraries, facilitating integration research results proposing better ways developing appropriate systems. Manifesto result collaborative work members European...
Summary Species distribution modeling is a process aiming at computationally predicting the of species in geographic areas on basis environmental parameters including climate data. Such quantitative approach has lot potentialities many that include setting up conservation priorities, testing biogeographic hypotheses, and assessing impact accelerated land use. To further promote diffusion such an approach, it fundamental to develop flexible, comprehensive, robust environment capable enabling...

Information and communication technology (ICT) advances in research infrastructures are continuously changing the way scientific performed. Scientists, funders, organizations moving paradigm of publishing well beyond traditional articles. The aim is to pursue an holistic approach where includes any product (e.g. publications, datasets, experiments, software, web sites, blogs) resulting from a activity relevant interpretation, evaluation, reuse or part it. implementation this vision today...
Environmental research infrastructures (RIs) support their respective communities by integrating large-scale sensor/observation networks with data curation services, analytical tools and common operational policies. These RIs are developed as pillars of intra-and interdisciplinary research, however comprehension the complex, pathologically interconnected aspects Earth's ecosystem increasingly requires that researchers conduct experiments across infrastructure boundaries. Consequently, almost...
Purpose The purpose of this article is to introduce the digital libraries future, their enabling technologies and organisational models. Design/methodology/approach paper first discusses requirements for then presents DILIGENT infrastructure as a technological response these and, finally, it role that can play in framework envisioned by DILIGENT. Findings Digital future will give access large variety multimedia multi‐type documents created integrating content from many different...
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present the architectural principles and services D-NET software toolkit. a framework where designers developers find tools for constructing operating aggregative infrastructures (systems aggregating data sources with heterogeneous models technologies) in cost-effective way. Designers can select from variety management services, configure them handle according given models, construct autonomic workflows obtain personalized infrastructures....
Summary EUBrazilOpenBio is a collaborative initiative addressing strategic barriers in biodiversity research by integrating open access data and user‐friendly tools widely available Brazil Europe. The project deploys the EU‐Brazil Hybrid Data Infrastructure that allows sharing of hardware, software on‐demand. This infrastructure provides to several integrated services resources seamlessly aggregate taxonomic, climate data, used processing implementing checklist cross‐mapping ecological niche...
Modern science tend to be more than ever multidisciplinary, collaborative and demanding.Scientific investigations span the boundaries of single institutions, disciplines, countries.In order serve these scenarios innovative working environments are needed.In this paper it is presented an environment consisting Hybrid Data Infrastructure supporting dynamic deployment operation array Virtual Research Environments, each tailored needs a scientific community towards research endeavour.The reports...
