1. IST World Follow-Up – January 2009 – To merge with/add to the proposal presented by Keith Jeffery (STFC)

2. Goal: Support the European FP7 Research Programme Existing Infrastructures Digital Repository (European Footprint) Deposit and Access Scientific Articles and Data produced in the context of FP7 Research Technological Development (Software?) Demonstration Activities (Slides?) ERC Activities

3. Requirements A helpdesk and a 24/7 operational service A post print authoring tool to allow researchers to convert articles into more readable and user friendly formats Monitoring data and statistics on use on a regular basis Information and guidance to scientific communities on the use of the infrastructure (e.g. through workshops, training actions, communication events, etc.) Preparatory action towards the extension of the e- infrastructure ability to cope with storage, management and access of scientific data.

4. Project Aim Upgrade the IST World Repository (CERIF 2004) to CERIF 2008 -> extensive coverage of publications -> Semantic Layer, -> %relations will follow Develop CERIF Semantics for FP7 Research output -> isAuthorOf -> isOriginatorOf, isInvestigatorOf, … -> PublicTechnicalReport, -> FinancialReport [forEConly], ManagementReport [forEConly], -> ProjectPresentation, ExtensiveSummaryReport, -> PublicDeliverable, DeliverableWithRestrictedAccessTo, … Display the roles with IST World network visualisations Display the publiation types with different icons/colors

5. Project Aim Develop CERIF Semantics for the maintenance of FP7 topics -> structure results accordingly = FP7 subjects ontology -> apply with the IST World competence map visualisation Enhance IST World tools with CERIF Semantics CERIF XML Exchange Format Output -> for Data Interchange within OAI-PMH Offer views for different users: -> Researcher, Manager, EC internal, ERC, Public, Modularize (individualize) analytic IST World tools -> to plug into CERIF-based systems Automatically produce/extract ‚Keywords/Concepts‘ from documents, -> semi-automatically subsume/learn them into FP7Topics

6. Data CORDIS European Commission FP7 Data (Documents) ERC Data Check Project Websites (Contact all of them) Existing Data Collections Open Access Repositories but how to distinguish FP7 data … ?

7. Consortium Currently under discussion within the euroCRIS Board Consortium size to be determined Recommendation by Prof. Hans Uszkoreit (DFKI, Head of Language Technology Lab) Contact the Head of Unit, to ask about the number of projects that EC wants to fund in the call, from there, we can get an idea about the money, to determine the size of the Consortium.
