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.
