2. Research Data
✤ Researchers care about
traditional outputs:
publications, etc
✤ But outputs are backed by data
(broadly conceived)
✤ There is a push to make all
products of research available
and citable
✤ PURE doesn’t support it

3. Bristol Clusters
✤ High Performance Computing
(BlueCrystal)
✤ Storage (BluePeta)
✤ Have created a storage service
4. RDSF
✤ Research projects can apply for
storage to board
✤ Assign a data steward
(typically PI)
✤ 5TB is free
✤ Many are already using it,
including arts and humanities
researchers
✤ Datasets are big
6. data.bris
✤ JISC Funded
✤ Put an interface on some of that
✤ Make deposits
✤ With metadata
✤ Then publish with DOI etc
✤ Mostly and RDF backend with
Rails front end
7. What I’m
thinking about
✤ Making this easy for
researchers
✤ Metadata
✤ Adding sword (maybe?)
✤ Datacite
✤ Working with PURE
✤ Packaging datasets
