Keynote Presentation. Research Data Management at ETH Zurich: Covering the Data Life Cycle from Planning to Publication
- Henry Lütcke (ETH Zurich)
- Caterina Barillari (ETH Zurich)
Description
Research data management has become a challenge for many scientists, due to the increase in size and complexity of data sets as well as more stringent requirements from funding agencies, journals and institutions. Tools, education and support for data management in academic institutions are thus becoming a necessity.
This presentation will describe data management services provided to scientists at ETH Zurich by Scientific IT Services (SIS) and the ETH Library. To cover the complete data life cycle, SIS supports scientists with their daily data management activities, while the ETH Library supports the later stages of data publication, long term preservation and sharing. Both units also provide joint training and consulting on data management planning.
In addition, we will provide an overview of openBIS, the comprehensive data management solution developed by SIS, and describe how openBIS integrates with the HPC infrastructure at ETH Zurich.
