17. Dashboard Pilots for
Research communities
•Dashboard will be
configured and used (depending of the community):
• Configuration of research impact and inference algorithm of OpenAIRE
• Use to interlink the artefacts of the Thematic Research infrastructures
• Deposition of research artefacts in Zenodo, claiming of artefacts, claiming of interlinks,
creation of packages of artefacts
• Deposition of research artefacts constituting a “dynamic publication” (linking VREs)
• Engaging researchers towards Open Science practices (Publishing datasets & methods)
•Extend content
providers of tool and workflows artefacts for publishing tool and artefact
packages in OpenAIRE via OpenAIRE-Publishing API

OpenAIRE-Connect project (EC H2020 funded project) will introduce and implement the concept of Open Science as a Service (OSaaS) on top of the existing OpenAIRE infrastructure, by delivering out-of-the-box, on-demand deployable tools in support of Open Science.
Three main topics.
Everyone is talking about Open Science, as a way to speed up, improve quality, and more effectively reward research activities, while funders and ministries see it as a means to optimize cost of science and leverage innovation.
Open Science is an emerging vision, a way of thinking… Today, the effective implementation of Open Science calls for a scientific communication ecosystem capable of addressing enabling Open Science publishing principles.
The ecosystem should allow research communities to share (for “discovery” and “transparent evaluation”) and re-use (for “reproducibility”) their scientific results by publishing all intermediary and final research artefacts, beyond scientific literature.
Open Science calls for a scientific communication ecosystem capable of addressing enabling Open Science publishing principles..
Artefacts can be research data and research methods (e.g. software, workflows, protocols, scripts, algorithms, etc.), should be deposited in content providers for scientific communication (e.g. institutional repositories, data archives, software repositories, CRIS systems), and should be published together with the semantic links between them. To complete the picture, such ecosystem should support publishing of packages of artefacts (e.g. research objects, enhanced publications, RMap) to allow discovery, evaluation, and reproducibility of aggregations of artefacts (e.g. workflows or experiments with input datasets).
Today's scientific communication landscape is far from supporting this vision, mainly due to its inability to (i) support publishing of all kinds of research artefacts: for example, research methods publishing workflows are generally not best practice, i.e. no research method repositories, no PIDs for methods, no scientific reward; (ii) keep a complete and up-to-date record of research artefacts relationships: for example, publication, data, software repositories and publishers do not keep bi-lateral links between each other’s artefacts,

OpenAIRE-Connect fosters transparent evaluation of results and facilitates reproducibility of science for research communities by enabling a scientific communication ecosystem supporting exchange of artefacts, packages of artefacts, and links between them across communities and across content providers.
To this aim, OpenAIRE-Connect will introduce and implement the concept of Open Science as a Service (OSaaS) on top of the existing OpenAIRE infrastructure2, by delivering out-of-the-box, on-demand deployable tools in support of Open Science. OpenAIRE-Connect will realize and operate two OSaaS services. The first will serve research communities to (i) publish research artefacts (packages and links), and (ii) monitor their research impact. The second will engage and mobilize content providers, and serve them with services enabling notification-based exchange of research artefacts, to leverage their transition towards Open Science paradigms.
Participating research communities and providers will drive the design and development of general-purpose services, will test and assess these services in a number of pilots to reach the desired production-quality and enrich the OpenAIRE infrastructure’s services portfolio. The adoption of these services, eased by the OSaaS approach aim at incepting Open Science publishing within the existing scholarly communication landscape.
Literature Broker Service - Concept
Institutional repositories in OpenAIRE may be interested to acquire metadata information about publications that are
“potentially of interest to them”
i.e. they should/could be part of their collection
add new records they were unaware of
enrich the records they already have with extra metadata information
