The topics for the eScience-Seminars in 2008 are:
- Unique and persistend identifiers, 27/28 March 2008
- Responsible for contents: Daan Broeder (MPI Nijmegen) and Malte Dreyer (MPDL)
- Background: An increasing number of scientists uses the internet to link between primary and secondary resources, as well as publications for various reasons. The corresponding (considerable) investments have to be protected by keeping those links unique and persistent, unlike the widely used URLs.
- Goal: The seminar will discuss suggestions for a stable mechanism for referencing sources persistently and will work out corresponding strategic measures for the Max Planck Society.
- Place: RZG München
- Aspects of long term archiving, 19/20 June 2008
- Responsible for contents: Wolfgang Voges (MPI Garching) and Dagmar Ullrich (GWDG)
- Goal: Based on the gain in experience over previous years of the GWDG and the RZG in offering services for bitstream preservation and the awareness of the need for open archivable formats, strategies for long term archiving in the Max Planck Society will be developed. Furthermore, future service offers and suggestions for file formats and metadata will be discussed, and organisatorial responsibilities within the life-cycle management of data (format migration, access strategies) within the Max Planck Society will be clarified.
- Place: GWDG Göttingen
- Metadata infrastructures, 23/24 October 2008
- Responsible for contents: Peter Wittenburg (MPI Nijmegen) and Traugott Koch (MPDL)
- MPDL Berlin
