In today’s research, the correct handling of data is of crucial importance. The amount of research data is growing exponentially, and with it the need to manage this data efficiently and sustainably. This is where the FAIR principles come into play: Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Re-Usable. These principles provide a common basis for handling research data and make it possible not only to store data, but also to make it usable and accessible. FAIR Digital Objects (FDOs) are a concept that transfers these principles to the digital world.
Asynchronous Tracking and Description of Research Data Changes in Distributed Systems With Interoperable Metadata

In the world of digital research, there are many different ways of storing data. But how can research data be managed in a way that makes it accessible and usable for everyone who should have access to it? In this blog post, we look at how we can tackle this challenge by introducing a method to fill in missing information about the origin of data. This approach is intended to make it easier to find and use research data – in line with the FAIR Principles.

This article is part of our series “Central RDM Services at RWTH Aachen“. It is intended to show our researchers – i.e. you – which RDM services are offered at RWTH Aachen University to support you in your research and data management. We talk to the people responsible for the services and collect all the information for you in the individual articles. In this article, we would like to introduce you to the RDM service “RWTH Publications for research data”.

Research data management (RDM) is an essential part of modern science and research. In order to optimally prepare researchers at RWTH Aachen University for the challenges of handling research data, we offer the RDM II compact workshop once a year. This one-day hands-on workshop takes place on site at the University Library and is aimed at anyone who would like to deepen their knowledge of research data management.
Effective Data Sharing With Coscine – Part 2
Source: Coscine
The first part of the blog series “Effective data sharing with Coscine” presented various options for sharing research data that are offered in Coscine. The second part of the series now looks at how you can make your research data accessible to a wider audience and how you can freely design the presentation of the data. Although this is somewhat more complex than the tools provided in the Coscine user interface, it offers more flexibility and can therefore be tailored specifically to your needs.

Congratulations to the three basic service initiatives Jupyter4NFDI, DMP4NFDI and KGI4NFDI, which received approval for a one-year initialization phase from the consortium meeting of the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) in April 2024. DMP4NFDI is another basic service for consortia based at RWTH Aachen University.

The last Open Meeting of the RDM of RWTH Aachen University took place on May 8, 2024 on the topic “Data Stewards and Data Champions – How do I gain support in RDM? How do I convince researchers of RDM?” as a face-to-face event in the conference room of the University Library. Read the rest of this entry »
Effective Data Sharing with Coscine – Part 1
Source: Coscine
Are you currently working on a large research project and using Coscine? Are you already in the final stages and would like to share the data with other colleagues who are not involved in the project or even publish the data in an article or publication? At this point, you are faced with numerous options regarding your research data. In this blog series, we would like to introduce you to some of the most common methods you can use to make your data accessible to people outside of Coscine.
