IRIOS-2 = IRIOS++ IRIOS produced a proof of concept for: –Gathering project data from the RCUK SSC –Importing it into the UNIS platform –CERIFying it –AND –Gathering data from the HEI partner IRs (ePrints, SURE) –Importing it into UNIS (and CERIFying it if need be) –THEN being able to –Link Publications to Projects –It worked! –Others can use it… but is a bit ‘clunky’ and not fully featured!

IRIOS-2 = IRIOS++ IRIOS-2 will convert IRIOS PoC into a demonstrator –Gathering more project data from the RCUK SSC –Importing it into the UNIS platform –CERIFying it [if needed] –AND –Gathering more data from the HEI partner IRs (ePrints, SURE) –Importing it into UNIS (and CERIFying it if need be) –THEN being able to –Link Publications to Projects [semi-automated?] –AND –Reconcile Project Finance Information –Connect to RMAS infrastructure –Run practical CERIF workshops

IRIOS-2: Overview The aims of the IRIOS-2 project are : i) Extend the IRIOS proof of concept demonstrator to better handle non-standard research outputs and multiple authors and roles ii) Enable HEIs to better collaborate by developing a CERIF B2B platform iii) Enable RCs and HEIs to reconcile grant status and finance information iv) Produce an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) connected cloud enabled version of IRIOS-2 such that it is RMAS compliant v) Run a series of practical CERIF technical and business process workshops
