Authors are invited to submit original manuscripts
that demonstrate current research on a broad range of topics related to
interoperable infrastructures for interdisciplinary big data sciences, including
but not limited to:
·
Research community requirements and
support
·
The nature and potential of
data-intensive (interdisciplinary) scientific methods
·
Strategies for linking and reusing
combinations of simulation-result and observational data
·
Research Infrastructure reference
model
·
Semantic linking among research
infrastructures
·
Interoperable data citation and
identification
·
Data harmonization
·
Interoperable data processing
workflows and provenance
·
Interoperable data and service
catalogues
·
Interoperable infrastructure
operation including policy and security models
·
Interoperable infrastructure trust
models
·
Interoperable data access and
transport services
The papers must
follow the IEEE 8.5"x11" two-column format, and submit via online submission system.
We welcome full papers (up to 10 pages, substantive work) and short papers (up
to 6 pages, work in progress). Submissions will be carefully evaluated based on
originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of expression. An
author of each accepted paper is required to register and present the paper in
the workshop. Accepted papers will be published by IEEE
Computer Society Press, US. Selected high quality papers will be
considered for a special journal issue.

Session 4: Interoperable infrastructure
and interdisciplinary sciences: challenges and future directions (90m, Malcolm
Atkinson)
(20) Short presentations: requirements and
expectations from Research Infrastructures
(60) Panel discussion
The panel will explore the extent to which
Research Infrastructures really have common requirements and the feasibility of
meeting these with shared solutions. This will be addressed through questions
such as:
1. What are the requirements
your Research Infrastructure has that you expect to be met by a shared solution
for common problems? Follow up: Which other Research Infrastructures
will you share that solution with?
2. Is the culture in
your community open to such sharing? Follow up: How quickly will
investment and training open up (or close) this opportunity for sharing?
3. How widely do you
expect shared solutions and methods to be adopted? Follow up: How widely
would they need to be adopted to be economically sustainable?
4. Do you see emerging
technical solutions or services that will meet these needs? Follow up:
How will their deployment, support and maintenance be funded?
5. Is there an
identifiable path for your research and support community from your current
working practices to such a solution? Follow up: What would the first
step be and when will you take it?
On the day different questions will be
used, partly shaped by the day’s presentations, but these indicate the gist of
the discussion. The discussion will be recorded and we will distil insights
about the future form of shared Research Infrastructure ICT solutions.
Panellists: to be invited.
