The Data Description Registry Interoperability (DDRI) WG has now completed its activities and the group has been closed. If you are interested in the group's topic, please join the Open Science Graphs for FAIR Data IG, which has taken over most of the activity from the DDRI WG.
Please note that the Data Description Registry Interoperability WG has delivered its outputs and has now become a Maintenance Group for these outputs.
Driven by the rapid development of data storage technology, the number of research data repositories is growing fast and researchers more than ever have access to a range of data repositories including university data storage, discipline-specific repositories and national (regional) level data infrastructures. The problem is that these infrastructures are often operating in silos; that is, they cannot connect their datasets to the related research or datasets in other platforms.
The partners in this working group have addressed the problem of cross-platform discovery by connecting datasets together on the basis of co-authorship or other collaboration models such as joint funding and grants. This working group did not aim for a monolithic solution, avoiding a one uber-portal to rule them all. Rather it compiles simple enabling infrastructures based on existing open protocols and standards with a flexible and extensible approach that allows registries to opt-in and enables any third-party to create particular global views of research data.
The outcome of this working group is described in this open document: http://goo.gl/wWMmz9. Note: This document is at the draft stage.
This working group had contribution from the following institutions
- Australian National Data Service (Australia)
- CERN inspireHEP (Switzerland)
- DANS (Netherland)
- da|ra (Germany)
- DataCite (Germany)
- Data-PASS (United States)
- Digital Curation Unit (DCU) (Greece)
- Dryad (United States)
- Elsevier
- figshare (UK)
- GESIS (Germany)
- National Institute of Informatics (NII) (Japan)
- OpenAIRE (Europe)
- RMIT University (Australia)
- The National Computational Infrastructure is Australia (NCI) (Australia)
- Thomson Reuters Data Citation Index
- VIVO (US)
- University of Sydney (Australia)
