Funders and projects
• Funders are crucial to development of science
• If public funders, they push for Open Access mandates
• Funders require methodologies to monitor impact (ROI) and
adherence to mandates of projects they fund
• Projects require the same tools to show off their production

workflows for research products
• Publications: well established (PIDs, metadata,
deposition, peer-review, citation, dissemination)
• Research data: available for given communities (PIDs,
metadata, deposition?, peer-review?, citation?
dissemination?)
• Scientific process: almost inexistent and not supported
by scientific reward mechanisms

• Data centres, Discipline databases, Thematic data repositories
• Linked to article: Data deposited and described at dedicated

PublishingData ServicesWorkingGroup
• Forum funded by the Commission to propel the discussion
among researchers and practitioners in the ambit of research
data management
• Identification of common, cross-discipline problems and yield
best practices, recommendations
• Organized in Interest Groups and Working Groups
• Focus:
• Publishing Data Interest Group: umbrella of WGs focusing on
enabling a stronger research data publishing infrastructure
• Publishing Data Services Working Group: focusing on article-
datasets interlinking
Publishing Data Services Working Group
Data-article links
• Benefits of creating context by establishing data-article links
• Increasing visibility and discoverability
• Stimulating reuse and repeatability
• Key to make it worth it:
• Infrastructural approach: linking needs to be done collectively, at
community (and cross-community) level, sharing procedures,
policies and technologies
• Issues
• No common framework for interlinking datasets and published
articles
• Initiatives live in isolation and cannot be combined
Enabling better science: giving
open access to article-dataset links
• Creating “an open, freely accessible, web based service
that enables its users to identify datasets that are
associated with a given article, and vice versa”
• The Service will serve as a flexible sandbox
• Major scholarly communication stakeholders involved at
different levels
• Feed authoritative links to the Service
• Access links from the service
• Feedback requirements, preferences, recommendations, obstacles
to refine/enhance the service

The Data-Literature Service
• A one-for-all service model infrastructure for the research
data publishing
• Increase interoperability
• Decrease systemic inefficiencies
• Power new tools and functionalities to the benefit of researchers
Benefits
• For data repositories and journal publishers
• Linking becomes more scalable and cheaper, ensuring
more visibility for data sources (and their “customers”)
• For research institutes, bibliographic providers,
and funding bodies
• Enables bibliographic services and productivity
assessment tools that track datasets and journal
publications within a common framework
• For researchers
• Sharing and accessing relevant articles and data easier,
more efficient and accurate, thereby increasing
scientific reward and enhancing its practices.

Publishing Research Activities
• De facto the literature publishing workflow has been adapted
and adopted for other research products
• “Elsewhere” and “on date” philosophy
• On the contrary, modern research conducted with the support
of Research e-Infrastructures is
• Strongly contextualized, intrinsically dynamic
• Research products should be published “in place” and
“during” and together with research activities
• Research e-Infrastructures should evolve to support
marketplace-like functionality
Science 2.0 Repositories
• Creation of research
products in the Re-I is
intercepted and the new
products are published
• Notify peers about
research activities and
published products via
research social networks
• Foster continuous open
peer review

    Research Data Alliance(RDA) PublishingData ServicesWorkingGroup • Forum funded by the Commission to propel the discussion among researchers and practitioners in the ambit of research data management • Identification of common, cross-discipline problems and yield best practices, recommendations • Organized in Interest Groups and Working Groups • Focus: • Publishing Data Interest Group: umbrella of WGs focusing on enabling a stronger research data publishing infrastructure • Publishing Data Services Working Group: focusing on article- datasets interlinking
  • 35.
    Publishing Data ServicesWorking Group Data-article links • Benefits of creating context by establishing data-article links • Increasing visibility and discoverability • Stimulating reuse and repeatability • Key to make it worth it: • Infrastructural approach: linking needs to be done collectively, at community (and cross-community) level, sharing procedures, policies and technologies • Issues • No common framework for interlinking datasets and published articles • Initiatives live in isolation and cannot be combined
  • 36.
    Enabling better science:giving open access to article-dataset links • Creating “an open, freely accessible, web based service that enables its users to identify datasets that are associated with a given article, and vice versa” • The Service will serve as a flexible sandbox • Major scholarly communication stakeholders involved at different levels • Feed authoritative links to the Service • Access links from the service • Feedback requirements, preferences, recommendations, obstacles to refine/enhance the service

    The Data-Literature Service •A one-for-all service model infrastructure for the research data publishing • Increase interoperability • Decrease systemic inefficiencies • Power new tools and functionalities to the benefit of researchers
  • 39.
    Benefits • For datarepositories and journal publishers • Linking becomes more scalable and cheaper, ensuring more visibility for data sources (and their “customers”) • For research institutes, bibliographic providers, and funding bodies • Enables bibliographic services and productivity assessment tools that track datasets and journal publications within a common framework • For researchers • Sharing and accessing relevant articles and data easier, more efficient and accurate, thereby increasing scientific reward and enhancing its practices.
