7th National Data Service Consortium Workshop (Co-located with GlobusWorld 2017)
Scientific Data Platforms: from Silos to Ecosystems
- April 13–14, 2017
- Chicago, Illinois
This is the seventh in our series of workshops aimed at building a national infrastructure for sharing, publishing, and re-using data. The NDS is an emerging vision for how scientists and researchers across all disciplines can find, reuse, and publish data. It builds on the archiving and sharing efforts already underway within specific communities and institutions and links them together with a common set of tools designed around search, publish, link and reuse capabilities. The NDS is a synergistic activity to the Research Data Alliance (RDA) and strives to provide infrastructure and software implementations, especially for RDA pilots.
Venue: Hotel Allegro , a boutique hotel in the heart of downtown Chicago.
- Specification of value propositions for data service providers as potential goals for the National Data Service.
- Identify areas a national data service can bridge between missing or nascent areas of a data ecosystem.
- Identification of synergies and support models between NDS and ecosystem component providers.
- Identification targeted data services relevant to moving away from siloed systems with potential for development with NDS resources and additional support.
The 7th National Data Service (NDS) Consortium Workshop and GlobusWorld 2017 are soliciting poster submissions to be presented at a joint session of the co-located NDS/GlobusWorld workshops, Chicago, April 12, 2017.
We encourage submissions of posters by researchers, developers, administrators, and cyberinfrastructure providers. Topics related to either workshop are within scope with areas of particular interest including data management, scientific data platforms, research applications, research services, and the development of ecosystems.
Submission due date: April 7, 2017 (submissions will be reviewed for relevance as they are submitted).
For more information and how to submit please read the Call for Posters page.
