Computers are undoubtedly one of the most important inventions of mankind. Their influence extends to almost every area of our lives and is becoming increasingly important in our everyday lives. These machines can perform complex calculations at lightning speed. But how exactly does it work?”
Today we are therefore looking at how a computer calculates and what the binary system is.
Coscine – How Is the RDM Platform Actually Structured?

Researchers face the daily challenge of efficiently managing and accessing large amounts of data. Nowadays, data management goes beyond simple storage. According to the FAIR principles, research data should be easy to find (Findable), accessible (Accessible), interoperable (Interoperable) and reusable (Reusable). This is exactly where Coscine (Collaborative Scientific Integration Environment) comes in – a platform that supports researchers throughout the data lifecycle.
But what exactly does that mean? Let’s take a look at the structure of Coscine and explain step by step how the platform for research data management (RDM) works.

Fear. A feeling that probably all of us are familiar with. Especially around Halloween, the potential for scares increases. Be it the fear of disguised, made-up figures or even the worry that your sensitive data will fall into the hands of unauthorized persons. Perhaps it’s no coincidence that October of all months is IT Security Month? In this article, we take a look at a few “IT horror stories”, how you can protect yourself from them and share some interesting figures.

In today’s digital age, our lives are increasingly intertwined with the online world. From social media profiles to online banking accounts, we leave a digital footprint that can be vulnerable to cyber threats. Protecting our digital presence and maintaining online privacy is more important now than ever. In this blog post, we’ll go over the basics of cybersecurity and provide practical tips for protecting your digital footprint.
“Keep Your Hard Drive” – Data security, a must!
Whether on the work computer, drives or the copier, IT managers in companies, but also each individual employee, have to deal with a lot of data at work. When data media need to be repaired or replaced, we sometimes carelessly hand them over. This also applies to our private PCs at home. But be careful in this matter! We give you tips on how to handle your data media with care and thus ensure greater data security.

Archive Migration – the Big Move of Archived Data

The Archive service enables RWTH employees to store data on a tape robot system for the long term. Archiving data in this way is primarily used to store data that, once stored, should also be stored in this form for the long term.
In the past, data inventories were stored here, primarily documenting measurement results, completed projects or project briefs. With the changes in the funding landscape, which among other things also rethink and demand the keeping of research data, the Archive service is also being rethought. This is partly because the current inventory system will be decommissioned in the summer of 2022 and partly because there is a need to hold data in a structured way in the future. So it’s time for a changeover.
