DRIVER II

First round of Tenders

Second round of Tenders; User Centric

1. Proof of Concept: Driver Demonstrator

• …relationships between objects (RDF, OAI-

ORE).

http://driver2.dans.knaw.nl/demonstrator/

html/index.html

Driver Demonstrator – Content –Resource Map

Driver Demonstrator - Relations

Driver Demonstrator–Content-1

Article at Nature

Article (postprint) in the Repository of the University instelling

And other objects such as video’s

Tender Projects (2nd

round)

1. JALC

• Journal of Archaeology in the Low Countries: Open

Access journal with Enhanced Publications within

the Domain of Archeology

• Enhancing Publications with Archaeological Data

(GIS maps, pictures, Excavation maps etc.)

• Presenting the objects within the publication

• Link: http://dpc.uba.uva.nl/jalc/01/nr01/a04

(if not): see screenshots


Projects (2)

2. Veteran Tapes

• Audio interviews and transcriptions of interviews

are linked to parts of publications.

• Pointing towards Fragments of interviews

• Interdisciplinary (psychologists, historians,

linguists, sociologists)

• Researchers participate and see the added value

but when the funding stops there is no other

reward for them to keep doing what they’re doing.

• Will result in multiple Enhanced Publications one

of which is an Enhanced e-book.


Projects (3)

3. Proefschriften Plus (Enhanced Theses)

• Was a follow up on a Knowledge Exchange project

about Enhanced E-theses.

• Produced 25 Enhanced E-Theses as a showcase

• Had to built their own solution for the repository

(Dspace 1.5 isn’t ready for EP’s)

• Investigated the possibility of this being a ‘Library

Service’ for Dissertations at the UU

• Broad scope of disciplines; ran into the issue of the

lacking of ontology's


Projects (4)

4. ESCAPE (Enhanced Scientific Communication by

Aggregated Publication Environments)

• Created the tools for supporting the creation,

storage and dissemination of Enhanced

Publications

- Resource map Repository

- Resource Map Editor

• Delivered Use cases from 3 different disciplines

• Focus on the Visual relationships between objects

Projecten (5)

5. DatapluS

• Enhance Publications with datasets and syntax in

two Subject repositories NKO (National Voters

Survey) and EVS (European Values Studies)

• Built a Enhanced Publication Tool (EP Editor) with

which researchers could Enhance their own

Publications

• Publications in Repository Linked with Data from

Data archives and syntax

• Extra work for researchers…. Metadata capture

rather during research than retrospectively

Next Steps

• Too much effort for researchers for this to become

common practice

-> Project on Updating the tools on the basis of user

experiences

• Research data often not sufficiently described or not

persistently stored

-> Promoting the availability and curation of research data

(a.o. dutch data forum)

• Not entirely clear what the workflow should be

-> Project on the workflow of creating an enhanced

journal publication in Open Journal System
