  1. The Unified Research Information Space (URIS) of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS)construction of  a distributed information environment based on semantic Web approach. A.Bezdushny (CCAS)V.Serebriakov (CCAS)T.Sysoev (JSCC)

  2. Contents • The Unified Information Space (URIS) • Main goals and • Architecture • The URIS information • The main services • URIS metadata • Requirements • Scheme levels • The main profile • The information system “RAS Institution” • Applications • Portal RAS • RAS organizations information systems • Thematic information systems • Bridges

  3. The Unified Research Information Space (URIS) The Unified Research Information Space (URIS) of the Russian academy of Sciences (RAS) is an integrated information space of distributed and local digital resources of RAS organizations and hardware and software tools that support its functionality and control.

  4. The main tasks of URIS RAS • Development of a unified metadata model on the basis of modern technologies and implementation of a global search mechanisms on its; • Active scientific communications; • Building of distributed catalogs of scientific information; • Information support of research study; • Development and publication of corporate standards; • Development and implementation of a software package “The RAS Basic Institution”; • Construction of points for access these information (portals); • Implementation of access and integration to information resources of RAS organizations; • Security support; • Interconnection with other information systems.

  5. URIS architecture

  6. URISInformation Bus The basis of the URIS RAS is an Information Bus that is a set of hardware, software and administrative tools that support: • Resources and services supplement • Security • Metadata actualization • Data integration • Global search.

  7. URIS Information bus: architecture

  8. URIS Information bus: resources • Organizatios • Persons • Publications • Projects • Spatial data • Application data

  9. Technologies The information model of URIS RAS is based on Semantic Web – RDF, RDFS, OWL ontology of scientific information. Thisincludes: • Scientific activity, in particular projects as a process, conferences, seminars etc. • Participants of Scientific activity, like persons, working groups, organizations etc. • Results of Scientific activity, like data bases, software projects, innovations etc. • Documents and publications, like papers, dissertations etc

  10. URIS Metadata requirements • Include basic resource types • Provide access to resources • Provide extensibility • Provide data integration • Provideidentification • Providesearching in distributed environment • Use SemanticWeb approach. • Provideinteroperobility

  11. URIS Metadata standards • Semantic Web – RDF, RDFS, OWL • DCMI - Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (dublincore.org) • PRISM - Publishing Requirements for Industry Standard Metadata (Adobe,…) • AGLS Metadata Standard • vCard–“visit card”in RDF. • FOAF open initiativeFriend Of A Friend (personal information) • BIBLINK, bibTeX, Math-Net, UKOLN CLD… • CERIF 2000, MARC и RUSMARC, CIDOC …

  12. Metadata Scheme levels • Metadata definitions are divided into schemes according to: • Application fields (AF) • Levels of description.

  13. The basic metadata profile • General purpose elements • Academic data • Historical aspects • The minimal description of person • The minimal description of an activity • The minimal description of results of activity

  14. Special profiles • Bibliography • Information about developments and products • Mathematics • Conferences • Collections and archives • Library • Publishing

  15. Scheme levels ·Minimal – sufficient to exchange data; ·Base – minimal sufficient for an application field; ·Extended – sufficient for an application field; ·Special – full description of an application field.

  16. Scheme hierarchy

  17. The software package“RAS Institution”

  18. RAS institutions information tasks • Inner administrative tasks • Institution as a research RAS organization • Support of a research process • Public representation

  19. The software package“RAS Institution” • The software package “The RAS Institution” is intended to supply institutions with a modern information system that supports internal requirements (publication of scientific information, administrative processes and information etc.) from one hand, and external ones (representation of the information in URIS RAS and Internet) from another hand. It includes: • Infrastructure services that supports • Data storage • Global identification • Data exchange and replication • Security • Indexing and search.

  20. The software package“RAS Institution” • Base components include subsystems • Administrative directory • Publications • Projects. • Interaction components • News • Forums • Private communication • Application components • Publishing department • Library • Electronic library • Library of dissertations.

  21. Base components • CMS – Content management system • Resource library (pictures, files) • Organization directory • Publications • Projects

  22. Services • Access control • Indexing and searching • Data exchange • News • Forums • Private communication (P2P)

  23. Application components • Digital library • Publishing • Library • Library of dissertatios

  24. “RAS institution” applications • Portal RAS • RAS organizations information systems • Thematic information systems • Bridges

  38. Purposes • Metadata support (keeping and editing) • Metadata harvesting • Integration of scientific spatial data • Searching of spatial data and services • Spatial data visualisation (maps, pictuers etc)

  39. Architecture • Implementation is based on RAS Institution • Ontology is based on EIS • Includes extensions for ISO 19115/19119 standards
