1. Data in Context Co-chairs: Brigitte Jörg, Keith Jeffery RDA 3rd Plenary, March, 26th - 28th, 2014 Dublin

2. Brief History 1st Plenary Gothenburg Preparing a WG Proposal/Case Statement „Contextual Metadata“ A lot of interest Revision of Initial Use Cases Use Cases as specific as possible Alignment with other WGs / Activities Four revised use cases: – Researcher: Find data.. – Manager: Indicate to funder – Provenance: Allow to take segments from streamed data workflows – Interoperability: Exchange of contextual metadata Rename Group to „Data in Context“

3. Data in Context IG Approach Lifecycle Approach – Linear Sequence of Elements – Cyclic Repetition of Elements Investigate Lifecycle Models – DCC: Conceptualize; Create; Access; Use; Appraise; Select; Dispose; etc – DDI: Discovery & Planning; Initial Data Collection; etc. – Research Lifecycle (Jisc): Research Process: Simulate Experiment; Manage Data; Analyse; etc. – etc. ?? Investigate contextually or subcontextually-aware standardization work – OAIS; CASRAI; CERIF; VIVO; PROV; PREMIS; MARC; CKAN; DCAT; ISO; W3C; OMG; Research Objects, etc. Investigate / Prioritize Reusable Requirements Deliverables: – M6: Overview of contextually- aware standardization work – M12: Priority List of Requirements Goal: – Set up of a Working Group – Implementation of Standardized Profiles Long-term Goal: – Automated Transformation Between Standards
