  1. Glimpses of future research practice: a musical study David De Roure

  2. Overview • Generation 1 – Early adopters • Generation 2 – Embedding • Generation 3 – Radical sharing • Music case study

  3. e-Science • e-Science was defined by John Taylor (Director General of the UK Research Councils) as global collaboration in key areas of science and the next generation of infrastructure that will enable it • e-Science was the name of the destination • It became the name of the journey • When we arrive, the destination is just called science

  4. e-Research “e-research extendse-Science andcyberinfrstructureto other disciplines, including the humanities andsocial sciences.” http://mitpress.mit.edu/catalog/item/default.asp?tid=12185&ttype=2

  15. 1st Generation Summary Current practices of early adoptors of tools. Characterised by researchers using tools within their particular problem area, with some re-use of tools, data and methods within the discipline. Traditional publishing is supplemented by publication of some digital artefacts like workflows and links to data. Science is accelerated and practice beginning to shift to emphasisein silicowork.

  16. Generation 2 2005 – 2010

  17. Reuse, Recycling, Repurposing • Paul writes workflows for identifying biological pathways implicated in resistance to Trypanosomiasis in cattle • Paul meets Jo. Jo is investigating Whipworm in mouse. • Jo reuses one of Paul’s workflow without change. • Jo identifies the biological pathways involved in sex dependence in the mouse model, believed to be involved in the ability of mice to expel the parasite. • Previously a manual two year study by Jo had failed to do this.

  19. Data mining: my data’s mine and your data’s mine

  20. Not Facebook for scientists! Facebook for scientists! mySpace for scientists!

  21. The experiment that is Web 2 Social Scientists Social Network Developers Open Repositories Researchers

  22. A probe into researcher behaviour • Open source (BSD) Ruby on Rails app • REST and SPARQL interfaces, Linked Data compliant • Inspiration for: BioCatalogue, MethodBox and SysmoDB • “Facebook for Scientists” ...but different to Facebook! • A repository of research methods • A community social network of people and things • A Social Virtual Research Environment myExperiment currently has 3849 members, 234 groups, 1315 workflows, 349 files and 133 packs

  24. Paul’s Research Object Paul’s Pack Workflow 16 QTL Results produces Included in Published in Included in Feeds into Logs produces Included in Included in Metadata Slides Paper produces Published in Common pathways Workflow 13 Results

  25. The Six Rs of Research Object Behaviours Research Objects enable data-intensive research to be: • Replayable – go back and see what happened • Repeatable – run the experiment again • Reproducible – independent expt to reproduce • Reusable – use as part of new experiments • Repurposeable – reuse the pieces in new expt • Reliable – robust under automation • Referenceable– citable and traceable http://blog.openwetware.org/deroure/?p=56

  26. “Scientists and developers journeying together”

  27. 2nd Generation Summary Projects delivering now. Some institutional embedding. Key characteristic is re-use - of the increasing pool of tools, data and methods across areas/disciplines. Contain some freestanding, recombinant, reproducible research objects. New scientific practices are established and opportunities arise for completely new scientific investigations. Some expert curation.

  28. Generation 3 2010 – 2015

  32. Taverna A Bioinformatics Experiment Scott Marshall Marco Roos “…to discover proteins that interact with transmembrane proteins, particularly those that can be related to neuro-degenerative diseases in which amyloids play a significant role” • Taverna provenance exposed as RDF • myExperiment RDF document for a protein discovery workflow • Mocked-up BioCatalogue document using myExperiment RDF data as example • Provisional RDF documents obtained from the ConceptWiki (conceptwiki.org) development server • An RDF document for an example protein, obtained from the RDF interface of the UniProt web site

  36. 3rd Generation Summary The solutions we'll be delivering in 5 years Characterised by global reuse of tools, data and methods across any discipline, and surfacing the right levels of complexity for the researcher. Routine use. Key characteristic is radical sharing . Research is significantly data driven - plundering the backlog of data, results and methods. Increasing automation and decision-support for the researcher - the VRE becomes assistive. Curation is autonomic and social.
