Thanks God, a simple Summary
Research project assessment National research assessment exercise
5
Project assessment (1/2)
Each year All in one month Only electronic submission A personal workspace for each researcher We know all about them ( registered users, with carriers and curricula) We have scientific production of all of them ( publications) A catalogue of scientific journal titles ( journals)
6
Project assessment (2/2)
>4.000 project proposals presented every year ( research projects in the last 12 years) > organizational units involved >6.500 international experts for peer review A ranking is calculated Funds assignment Monitoring the financial data during project life-cycle Collect periodical reports and final statements

Summary Research project assessment
National research assessment exercise
8
national research assessment exercise (1/2)
Covers from 3 to 5 years Only the best research products Bibliometric indicators Peer review Good ranking position means more funds and salary increase
9
national research assessment exercise (2/2)
First exercise was successfully concluded in 2006 products were evaluated by 151 panelist, assisted by international experts At least 2 blind reviews per product Final ranking calculated by scientific area and by structure A new (bigger!) exercise will start very soon

interoperability Universities and Research Institutions can exchange data with the National Research Information System via: web services file upload/download OAI-PMH (work in progress)
11
standards Researchers’ curricula are in Europass format. We are going to use the same format for University professors CVs soon. We are working to provide research projects data according to the CERIF 2008 standard. For publications metadata exchange we use many formats, but our main reference is MODS.

CINECA’s vision on research processes
Project management internally and externally funded (Gov, EU, Industry): administering the grant, complying with regulations, reporting to funders. Research results repository management (publications, patents, conference speeches, proceedings..) Research results assessment (publication, projects, research groups) Research assets management (research teams and groups, research units, laboratories, equipments, facilities, skills..) Dissemination and Technology transfer Integration with national and istitutional repositories/systems Projects Results Assessment Assets Dissemination

What future for interoperability ?
standards are a feasible goal but standards come through adoption so… we need to build tangible services for the research community on top of standardization !
