Dear all IG and WG at RDA
Apologies for cross-posting.
Please find below the Call for Papers for the 4th Workshop on Metadata and
Research (objects) Management for Linked Open Science - DaMaLOS 2024
, this year co-located with the Extended
Semantic Web Conference ESCW 2024.
Drop me a line if you have any questions.
Looking forward to some submissions from RDA groups.
Kind regards,
on behalf of DaMaLOS Organizing Committee

DaMaLOS 2024 - 4th Workshop on Metadata and Research (objects) Management
for Linked Open Science
*Where: Co-located with ESWC 2024 to be held in Hersonissos, GreeceWhen:
26th or 27th of May 2024 (TBC)Submissions:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=damalos2024
(deadline
2024.03.07)More information at: https://zbmed.github.io/damalos/
Contact: damalos2024 @ easychair .
orgDaMaLOS explores requirements for research digital objects (e.g., data,
software, workflows, ro-crates) and their corresponding management plans to
effectively instantiate an integrated layer supporting Linked Open Science
(i.e., Open Science plus Linked Open Data). DaMaLOS welcomes contributions
aligned to the following topics: machine-actionable DMPs and SMPs;
machine/deep learning approaches around rich metadata; FAIRification; FAIR
by design; FAIR tooling; recognition, publication and citation for data,
software and other research digital objects, and scientometrics beyond the
scholarly publication (i.e., combining the different digital objects
playing a role in the research cycle).*Submission guidelines
*This year DaMaLOS welcomes submissions in the form of long (up to 12
pages) and short (up to 6 pages) research papers, research objects (up to 3
pages), position papers (up to 6 pages), demos (up to 3 pages), posters (up
to 3 pages). Accepted papers will go to the proceedings of the workshop and
will be publicly available under CC-by 4.0 license at PUBLISSO FRL
indexed by LIVIVO
and DBLP .
Papers should be formatted according to LNCS templates
.*Topics
of interest
-
Research management
-
Importance, automatization and connections across Research Data and
Software (and other digital objects) Management for Linked Open Science
(LOS, i.e., Open Science + Linked Open Data principles)
-
Special features/metadata required in research management plans for
LOS
-
Extensions to current RDM plans to better support LOS
-
FAIRness and FAIRification
-
Integration/alignment between FAIR and research management plans
-
FAIRification processes, either by design or post-research-object
creation
-
FAIR tooling, e.g., evaluators, extensions, governance
-
Open Science and Scientometrics
-
Benefits of LOS over Open Science
-
How research plans and LOS can be used to improve collection and
storage of (usually volatile) data produced at, e.g., conferences
-
Integration of software, data, and other research outcomes into
science-related metrics
