Improving FAIRness with containers

The FAIR guiding principles state that published research objects should be made Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable for other researchers. Data repositories provide research dissemination following FAIR principles while also developing standards and tools to facilitate them. However, increased use of advanced research methods, such as virtual containers, supercomputers and GPUs, is introducing new challenges for research sharing. There is no standardized way of describing and disseminating such research outputs in data repositories. Furthermore, dissemination of data within virtual containers like Docker may hinder some of the commonly supported principles, such as findability and accessibility.

Placing research software into Open Science - Initial results from an RDA Sweden and EOSC Nordic collaboration

The concept of Open Science is mostly focused around Open Data and Open Access for published material, with Open Software usually left in the shadow. But in order to ensure transparent and reproducible science, it is essential that also software used in research be adequately documented, curated, preserved and made as FAIR and open as possible! RDA Sweden and EOSC Nordic have undertaken a pilot project to map out current thinking on Open Software and its implications. In this webinar, we will present the outcomes of the project and discuss an upcoming survey on Nordic and Baltic scientists’ and stakeholders’ attitudes towards FAIR och Open Software.
