WP 5 Shared Data Access & Enrichment Catharina Wasner GESIS – Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences IASSIST 2014, June 4 2014, Toronto Welcome everybody to the DASISH session I would like to present you now the visions, goals and current results of workpackage five.

6 Tasks 5.1 Establishment of a Trust Federation for AAI 5.2 Robust Persistent Identifier Service 5.3 Metadata Quality Improvement 5.4 Joint Metadata Domain 5.5 Workflow Implementations 5. 6 Annotation Framework for Data Enrichment We have six task in this workpackage

5.1 Establishment of a Trust Federation for Authentication and Authorization Vision: European researchers in the SSH access a wider range of services than are available nationally or locally European researchers in the SSH have only one digital identity and password for all services connected through the federation Challenges: many parties, different notions on data protection and privacy in Europe, bureaucratic overhead, late establishment of the CESSDA AS and no quorum until then We are moving towards these goals but reaching has turned out to be too ambitious during the three years of the project.

5.1 Establishment of a Trust Federation for Authentication and Authorization Current results: collaboration with Clarin Service Provider Federation and eduGAIN a service within the GÉANT project and establishment of communication channels inventory of the countries and DASISH centers involved test of joining the Clarin Service Provider Federation with 4 centers UKDA, UCPH, DANS, GESIS and checking the appropriate agreements DARIAH/DASISH Workshop on a Federation for eHumanities and eSocial Science, October 17-18 2013, GESIS Cologne It has turned out that eduGAIN is currently not in a state that it can be used for production-purposes in DASISH

5.2 Robust Persistent Identifier Service Vision: enable the unique identification and the sustainable access of digital objects in the SSH upgraded PID services fulfilling the requirements of the DASISH community Goals: gather requirements from the participating communities analyze the current PID services DataCite, EPIC, PersID create PR, education and training for the use of PIDs

5.2 Robust Persistent Identifier Service Current results: two questionnaires were constructed: one for the five DASISH communities, on for the data centers the three PID services were investigated the results of the survey and the description of the services were sent to the services for comments all results can be found in the Deliverable Report D5.1a which will be published together with D5.1b the next months

5.3 Metadata Quality Improvement Vision: high quality metadata is used for smart eScience based computation Goals: analyze and compare different metadata strategies in the DASISH community start a campaign to improve metadata quality including a flyer and training courses

5.3 Metadata Quality Improvement Current results: desk-based research on quality standards comparison of the different metadata strategies in DASISHnincluding case studies throughout the data/metadata lifecycle all results can be found in the Deliverable Report D5.2 which will be published in the beginning of July 2014 guidelines and tips for best practice planned for next months

5.4 Joint Metadata Domain Vision: research data of the European SSH can be found via a interdisciplinary meta catalogue Goals: generate a suitable portal making use of smart search/browse/filtering techniques such as faceted browsing to give access to the joint metadata all centers provide OAI-PMH based metadata harvesting channels

5.4 Joint Metadata Domain Current results: a prototype of the portal including almost 600.000 datasets -will be finished this summer -a prototype of the portal including CESSDA, CLARIN and DARIAH as groups. -within the groups, datasets harvested from these communities are stored. -the datasets can be accessed by faceted browsing. -http://vmext24-215.gwdg.de/ckan/dataset

5.5 Workflow Implementations Vision: powerful virtual workflows will play an increasingly important role in the emerging eResearch scenario Goals: identify typical cross-disciplinary workflows for being dealt with by automatic processing chains study the requirements and implement a number of demonstration cases for educational activities Like web services and web applications to process textual data (spoken or written) for a particular purpose related to the exploitation of the data

5.5 Workflow Implementations Current results: a number of researchers (of different areas) who are users of exploitation tools were identified a survey was carried out of current typical practices in the areas of SSH information about actual tools and services that could be used for building the demonstration workflows were compiled all results can be found in the Deliverable Report D5.3 which will be published at the end of the year

5. 6 Annotation Framework for Data Enrichment Vision: Researchers need to be able to store the results of intellectual work on web accessible material either as an annotation of a single fragment or in the form of typed relations between a number of fragments Goals: an annotation framework that can handle the essential SSH requirements

5. 6 Annotation Framework for Data Enrichment Current results: Specify the requirements for an annotation web service Analyze and compare existing annotation frameworks Provide and test an annotation framework that covers essential functionality all results can be found in the Deliverable Report D5.4 which will be published in the beginning of July 2014
