CVN – Problems (I) – Notupdatedinformation NOT updatedinformation Typicalscenario (National Plan): Oneapplicationeverythreeyears Ministry of Economy University 2006 2009 2012 … Theresearcher has tosendhis data manually
CVN – Problems (I) – Notupdatedinformation - Solution Solution: Research Network Instead of manuallysendingtheinformartion: theinstitutionaskforthat data Ministry of Economy University (updatedinformation)
CVN – Problems (I) – Notupdatedinformation– Need University FundingInstitution = (158) Local research ID C-54 Local research ID: 157 (158) = (P85) (P85) Local publication ID: P-17 Local publication ID: 1317 Local publication ID: 879 (P87) Local publication ID: P-1389 (P195) • All CV Itemsmusthave a unique ID
