Service and data interoperability

• Brian Matthews (STFC)

Description

The lack of interoperability is a major barrier to open data sharing. The barriers between disciplines and organisations have arisen for many historical, technical and cultural reasons, and they are difficult to overcome. If we are to develop wide support for open science, we need to adopt common approaches to support data and service interoperability. In this session, we shall discuss some current activities which are developing best practise for interoperability within and between major European digital infrastructure initiatives.

151. EGI-EUDAT joint access to data and computing resources: an executive report

Dr Michaela Barth (KTH)

01/12/2017, 11:00

The EGI-EUDAT interoperability collaboration started in 2016 with the goal to harmonise the two e-infrastructures. In order to create seamless access, and pairing data and computing resources together into one perceived infrastructure offering both EGI and EUDAT services, user communities were identified and selected to bring in their requirements on technical interoperability, authentication,...

152. Combining HPC and Data services

Giuseppe Fiameni (CINECA - Consorzio Interuniversitario)

The goal of this proposal is to present the collaboration activity between two major European Infrastructures, EUDAT, the European Collaborative Data Infrastructure, and PRACE, the Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe, to support communities into the management of data sets resulting from scientific simulation. The EUDAT infrastructure initiative is a consortium of several major...

153. Sensitive data services and their integration with European e-infrastructures

Mr Antti Pursula (CSC)

01/12/2017, 11:30

Nowadays data are collected and stored in unprecedented ways, thus enabling new research opportunities and novel innovations based on data mining and data aggregation. However, in fields such as medical, social and environmental sciences research often includes personal or sensitive data that must be handled with consideration for the personal privacy. Many projects have developed legally...

154. OpenAIRE services in support of “Open Science as-a-Service”

Paolo Manghi (Istituto di Scienza e Tecnologie dell'Informazione - CNR)

01/12/2017, 11:45

The effective implementation of OpenScience calls for a scientific communication ecosystem capable of enabling the “Open Science publishing principles” of transparency and reproducibility. Such ecosystem should provide tools, policies, and trust needed by scientists for sharing/interlinking (for “discovery” and “transparent evaluation”) and re-using (for “reproducibility”) all research...

155. Integrated service delivery across e-Infrastructures and Service Providers

Ms Afrodite Sevasti (GEANT)

01/12/2017, 12:00

GEANT is putting forward a standards' (ITIL, TMForum and MEF) based architecture and framework for operational integration and service delivery orchestration across e-infrastructures and service providers. The specification is addressing minimum requirements for the operations and business support systems (OSS/BSS) of participating service providers, defining orchestrated processes across...
