Book Data Management

Download or read book Data Management written by Margaret E. Henderson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Libraries organize information and data is information, so it is natural that librarians should help people who need to find, organize, use, or store data. Organizations need evidence for decision making; data provides that evidence. Inventors and creators build upon data collected by others. All around us, people need data. Librarians can help increase the relevance of their library to the research and education mission of their institution by learning more about data and how to manage it. Data Management will guide readers through: Understanding data management basics and best practices. Using the reference interview to help with data management Writing data management plans for grants. Starting and growing a data management service. Finding collaborators inside and outside the library. Collecting and using data in different disciplines.

Book Towards Interoperable Research Infrastructures for Environmental and Earth Sciences

Download or read book Towards Interoperable Research Infrastructures for Environmental and Earth Sciences written by Zhiming Zhao and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-24 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book summarises the latest developments on data management in the EU H2020 ENVRIplus project, which brought together more than 20 environmental and Earth science research infrastructures into a single community. It provides readers with a systematic overview of the common challenges faced by research infrastructures and how a ‘reference model guided’ engineering approach can be used to achieve greater interoperability among such infrastructures in the environmental and earth sciences. The 20 contributions in this book are structured in 5 parts on the design, development, deployment, operation and use of research infrastructures. Part one provides an overview of the state of the art of research infrastructure and relevant e-Infrastructure technologies, part two discusses the reference model guided engineering approach, the third part presents the software and tools developed for common data management challenges, the fourth part demonstrates the software via several use cases, and the last part discusses the sustainability and future directions.

Book Provenance in Data Science

Download or read book Provenance in Data Science written by Leslie F. Sikos and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-26 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RDF-based knowledge graphs require additional formalisms to be fully context-aware, which is presented in this book. This book also provides a collection of provenance techniques and state-of-the-art metadata-enhanced, provenance-aware, knowledge graph-based representations across multiple application domains, in order to demonstrate how to combine graph-based data models and provenance representations. This is important to make statements authoritative, verifiable, and reproducible, such as in biomedical, pharmaceutical, and cybersecurity applications, where the data source and generator can be just as important as the data itself. Capturing provenance is critical to ensure sound experimental results and rigorously designed research studies for patient and drug safety, pathology reports, and medical evidence generation. Similarly, provenance is needed for cyberthreat intelligence dashboards and attack maps that aggregate and/or fuse heterogeneous data from disparate data sources to differentiate between unimportant online events and dangerous cyberattacks, which is demonstrated in this book. Without provenance, data reliability and trustworthiness might be limited, causing data reuse, trust, reproducibility and accountability issues. This book primarily targets researchers who utilize knowledge graphs in their methods and approaches (this includes researchers from a variety of domains, such as cybersecurity, eHealth, data science, Semantic Web, etc.). This book collects core facts for the state of the art in provenance approaches and techniques, complemented by a critical review of existing approaches. New research directions are also provided that combine data science and knowledge graphs, for an increasingly important research topic.

Book A Model for Data Provenance Management

Download or read book A Model for Data Provenance Management written by Zhendong Zhao and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Data provenance helps us interpret, understand and reproduce results. Capturing and managing data provenance has received significant attention because of complex transformations in loosely coupled resources. In this work, data provenance terminologies are summarized, the key components and desiderata for data provenance model are described, and the currently existing date provenance management systems are extensively reviewed. Archive, Provenance and Lineage Network (APLN) is proposed for data archiving and sharing with the basic data provenance information. The architecture of the APLN model is presented and each main component is described in detail. The APLN model has three layers: web interface, APLN engine and back-end repositories. The APLN engine provides four core services: archiving, querying, retrieval and authorization. The back-end repositories are a mixture of files and database tables for fast access to information and flexible information storage. The APLN model is a general, flexible, extensible and practical model for data provenance and management.

Book Research Data Management

Download or read book Research Data Management written by Joyce M. Ray and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has become increasingly accepted that important digital data must be retained and shared in order to preserve and promote knowledge, advance research in and across all disciplines of scholarly endeavor, and maximize the return on investment of public funds. To meet this challenge, colleges and universities are adding data services to existing infrastructures by drawing on the expertise of information professionals who are already involved in the acquisition, management and preservation of data in their daily jobs. Data services include planning and implementing good data management practices, thereby increasing researchers' ability to compete for grant funding and ensuring that data collections with continuing value are preserved for reuse. This volume provides a framework to guide information professionals in academic libraries, presses, and data centers through the process of managing research data from the planning stages through the life of a grant project and beyond. It illustrates principles of good practice with use-case examples and illuminates promising data service models through case studies of innovative, successful projects and collaborations.
