  1. DRIS/BP Task Group Report, Madrid, 5-7.11.2012 Sergey Parinov, TG leader Barbara Ebert, deputy TG leader

  2. Topics of BP/DRIS TG meetingNovember 6th, 10:00 – 13:00 • 10:00 – 11:00 • Mission, workplan, work done to-date, topics for discussion • 11:00 – 12:00 (joint with CRIS-IR TG) • DRIS demonstration (about 30 minutes, Ed Simons) • Discussion: necessary improvements for CRIS and IR forms, roadmap for launch, topics for a work program • 12:00 – 12:30 Breakout in small working groups • CERIF-CRIS Repository • DRIS technical platform • … other topics t.b.d. • 12:30 – 13:00 Closing discussion • Results of breakout • Updates to TG work program

  3. Mission and goals • Demonstration of web pages from www.eurocris.org

  4. Last results of TG’s activity(after TG’s meeting in Bath, Feb. 2012) • There are a web forum, a mailing list and updated TG’s web pages • Best Practice (Barbara): • the first group of selected materials (4 document) • an experience of approving materials • updated BP web page at www.eurocris.org • not done: publishing BP materials • DRIS: • the 1st release of DRIS application (create, view, update) • the 1st stage of testing and evaluation of the application (results on the web forum) • updating DRIS page at www.eurocris.org

  5. Topics for a discussion • We need more tools/services, but we are not able to create them all at eurocris.org • should we ask CRIS vendors to give us an ability to use their tools for free? • should we produce a review of vendors’ tools? • needed functionality for TG’s activities ? • how to do this technically and a general policy • how a data created by vendors’ tools will come home to eurocris.org • Suggestions on topics from members?

  6. DRIS application demonstration • Ed will do this

  7. 1. From Sebastian Herwig: would it be possible to mark the "name" field as mandatory or to also make the acronym as link to the profile view of an entry?2. From Sergey Parinov: - In the DRIS submission policy (http://www.eurocris.org/Index.php?page=DRIS&t=1) we have:"The DRIS/BP TG can submit data to DRIS about RIS of external organizations on their request."So a DRIS administrator should be able to type manually a name of organization in the DRIS submission form.- DRIS administrator should be able to exclude and/or delete some records from DRIS database.- Maybe all new submissions to DRIS should be validated by DRIS admin before they will be publicly available?3. From VieraHudechkova:- The group of fields "Official contact information" - a user should be able to correct default data by typing a name/contact of another person who is a real contact.- The field "Coverage of the CRIS" - there should be an option "Other" with an additional text field to type other options not listed in the field- The field "Usage" - there should be specified in what format the numbers can be typed (e.g.xxx xxxxxx, or xxx.xxx.xxx, etc)- The group of fields "Relation between CRIS and IR" - if the radio-button "Is there a link betweenthe CRIS and IR" is "No" the radio-buttons below should be hidden- The view page with a CRIS should have -- fields in the same order as input forms-- buttons "Update" and "Back to DRIS catalogue"- We need a button "Update" for data about IR- Several times I was able to save my data in the CRIS online form only after two attempts

  8. We should make a decision on current DRIS application • Can we open it for public as is or with minor improvements? • what minimal improvements have to be done • If no, how we act, since Ed will have low resources to develop DRIS more?

  9. Topics for discussion in BP breakouts • Realization of a Best Practice bibliography/repository • Development of documents for a Best Practice catalogue (selected materials) • Four documents donated by AA and KJ • Use cases • …..

  10. Topics for discussion in DRIS breakout • Current basic DRIS application – necessary improvements and proper startup, how to make changes faster • A list of use cases for basic DRIS • Extended DRIS • new use cases, requirements, a concept • supported types of interoperability • a technical platform for experiments • a request to vendors for providing us tools

  11. DRIS concept (in brief) • DRIS has to be supportive for building a research DIS and to develop e-infrastructure, e.g. as Pan European (or wider) Research Portal • Basic DRIS – proper visualization of CRISs characteristics with focus on CERIF based interoperability and interests of other TGs • Extended DRIS – a unit of global research e-infrastructure (e.g. information hub) served to reuse CRIS artifacts outside parent systems

  12. DRIS usefulness • Visualization of CRISs landscape and potential benefits of interoperability among CRISs • Registration of CRIS artifacts for its using outside parent systems • CRIS artifact types: 1)content, 2)software (tools/services), 3)sem.linkages, 4)indicators, … • DRIS new features: give away data on what CRISs have: • semantic linkages for the selected information object • specific indicators and/or services to produce necessary indicator over selected information objects

  13. DRIS Use cases • Basic DRIS – similar to IR lists, like ROAR, DOAR, etc. • to get a picture about CRISs landscape • to investigate a resource of possible CRIS interoperability • to find out needed content, metadata, etc. • Extended DRIS – • a list of CRIS artifacts (more details about CRIS) • a support of interoperability for CRIS2CRIS and CRIS2Humans

  14. Visualization of CRISs landscape and potential benefits of interoperability What CRIS has for outside using: content, software, linkages, indicators Storing necessary data (URL/protocols) for CRIS artifacts using Storing semantic linkages for outside using of information objects

  15. TG’s main activities on 2013-2014(a proposal) • Best Practice materials: • Making available existing literature – CERIF & CRIS bibliography, deposit in repository • Best Practice catalogue: euroCRIS documents: submission & selection policy, request to other TGs to recommend materials • DRIS: • Official launch of the current DRIS application • extended DRIS as research e-infrastructure unit • requirements, a concept and technical platforms • funded projects, partner organizations and a consortium

  16. Work Plan for 2013-2014 • Launching the DRIS application • there are about 15 suggestions to improve DRIS (see it in the forum) • we should decide with Ed what have to be done before we launch the DRIS • DRIS instructions, classification? of fields, data validation • A program of actions to collecting data into DRIS for members and non-members • Anna’s group suggested to design “from the scratch” a concept of CRIS related information exchange mechanism • Best Practice: • to publish 4 approved documents • to ask other TGs give us their recommendations on BP materials • CERIF CRIS Bibliography – launching euroCRIS repository
