Increasingly, within the library, data curation responsibilities are being associated with specific jobs (with titles like “data curator” or “data curation specialist”), and the rise of specialized training programs within library schools has reinforced this process by providing a stream of qualified staff to fill these roles. At the same time, other kinds of library staff have responsibilities that may dovetail with (or even take the place of) these specific roles: for instance, metadata librarians are strongly engaged in curatorial processes, as are repository managers and subject librarians who work closely with data creators in specific fields. Different techniques and different organizations are engaged in data curation. Finally, it is increasingly being recognized that the data creators themselves (faculty researchers or library staff) have a very important responsibility at the outset: to follow relevant standards, to document their work and methods, and to work closely with data curation specialists so that their data is curatable over the long term. Keywords:Data Storage, Data Management, Data curation, Data annotation, Data preservation 1. INTRODUCTION Data Curation is a term used to indicate management activities related to organization and integration of data collected from various sources, annotation of the data, publication and presentation of the data such that the value of the data is maintained over time and the data remains available for reuse and preservation.

  • Central Archiving Platform (CAP)
    Central Archiving Platform (CAP) Central Archiving Platform (CAP) is a complex integrated system for a long-term storage, processing, securing and usage of any digital data. CAP provides a solution for recording, collection, archiving and data protection as well as web-harvesting and web-archiving task options. The system can also be used as a basis for a systematic digitization of any kind of analog information. Beside the long-term data storage, the main benefit of CAP is the institutionalization of digital archives meeting international norms and standards. Therefore, a part of the solution is a broad know-how defining the legislation norms, data processing and methodology for long-term data storage, imparting of the information in the archive and further content handling. Benefits: long-term data storage and protection compliance with the international criteria top security level and standards conformity with the legislation norms, data modularity, scalability, robustness processing and methodology for content and expandability handling and management CAP DIAGRAM CAP SERVICES CAP provides long-term digital data archiving services meeting the OAIS standard (Open Archival Information System). The main purpose for such an archive is to keep the data secure, legible and understandable. Therefore, CAP’s focus is on monitoring the lifetime cycle of stored data formats and their conversion/emulation as well as their bit protection. Our system also provides a support for identification and selection of formats suitable for archiving, legislation support and data selection variability. The archived objects are secured and the solution is fully compliant with the legal norms on intellectual property. LogIstIcs Data delivery can be realized online or using a specialized logistics system that could be included in the CAP solution.

  • Web Data Extraction, Applications and Techniques: a Survey
    Web Data Extraction, Applications and Techniques: A Survey Emilio Ferraraa,∗, Pasquale De Meob, Giacomo Fiumarac, Robert Baumgartnerd aCenter for Complex Networks and Systems Research, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN 47408, USA bUniv. of Messina, Dept. of Ancient and Modern Civilization, Polo Annunziata, I-98166 Messina, Italy cUniv. of Messina, Dept. of Mathematics and Informatics, viale F. Stagno D'Alcontres 31, I-98166 Messina, Italy dLixto Software GmbH, Austria Abstract Web Data Extraction is an important problem that has been studied by means of different scientific tools and in a broad range of applications. Many approaches to extracting data from the Web have been designed to solve specific problems and operate in ad-hoc domains. Other approaches, instead, heavily reuse techniques and algorithms developed in the field of Information Extraction. This survey aims at providing a structured and comprehensive overview of the literature in the field of Web Data Extraction. We provided a simple classification framework in which existing Web Data Extraction applications are grouped into two main classes, namely applications at the Enterprise level and at the Social Web level. At the Enterprise level, Web Data Extraction techniques emerge as a key tool to perform data analysis in Business and Competitive Intelligence systems as well as for business process re-engineering. At the Social Web level, Web Data Extraction techniques allow to gather a large amount of structured data continuously generated and disseminated by Web 2.0, Social Media and Online Social Network users and this offers unprecedented opportunities to analyze human behavior at a very large scale. We discuss also the potential of cross-fertilization, i.e., on the possibility of re-using Web Data Extraction techniques originally designed to work in a given domain, in other domains.

  • Design and Implementation of a Nosql Database for Decision Support in R&D Management
    University of Magdeburg School of Computer Science Databases D B and Software S E Engineering Master's Thesis Design and Implementation of a NoSQL Database for Decision Support in R&D Management Author: Prem Sagar Jeevangekar April 23, 2019 Advisors: Prof. Dr. rer. nat. habil. Gunter Saake Dipl.-Inf. Wolfram Fenske Department of Computer Science Dr. rer. nat. Matthias Plaue MAPEGY GmbH Jeevangekar, Prem Sagar: Design and Implementation of a NoSQL Database for Decision Support in R&D Management Master's Thesis, University of Magdeburg, 2019. Abstract The concept of database is introduced in the early 1960s. The relational database came into the picture in the early 1970s. The relational database had a great im- pact on data storage ever since. However, due to an increase in data in the modern database world, it leads to developing more efficient database technologies to deal with the usage of exponentially increased data. When working with the structured datasets, relational databases are more reliable and efficient. However, the database lacks its efficiency when huge unstructured data is produced from real-world ap- plications. To overcome the problems faced by the relational databases, compa- nies started looking for more reliable, flexible, highly scalable and high-performance databases. In the early 2000s, the NoSQL databases were introduced and gained huge popularity in a short period of time. The main aim of the thesis is to design and implement the NoSQL database (Mon- goDB) and investigate its performance in terms of query execution speed. This thesis provides an overview of one of the relational database (PostgreSQL) and investigate the performance of NoSQL database (MongoDB).

    Thesis Development of methods for the automated annotation of prokaryotic proteomes GATTIKER, Alexandre Abstract L'annotation attachée aux données génomiques représente une aide considérable pour la compréhension de la fonction des gènes. Des méthodes ont été développées pour augmenter l'efficacité, l'étendue, la fiabilité et la cohérence de l'annotation des protéomes procaryotes au sein de la base de connaissances Swiss-Prot. La superposition de méthodes automatisées au processus d'annotation classique n'amène aucune réduction de qualité mais rend au contraire les données plus cohérentes et reproductibles. La complémentarité entre l'expertise des annotateurs et des méthodes automatiques a été maximisée en utilisant un système de règles d'annotation maintenues manuellement. Des outils ont été créés pour maximiser le débit du travail des experts travaillant sur la base de connaissance et un système automatique permet l'annotation de sous-ensembles particuliers des protéomes procaryotes. Le système a été ensuite étendu pour gérer également les protéines d'origine eucaryote et pour annoter partiellement des protéines complexes sur la base de leurs domaines et sites fonctionnels.

  • Pre-Workshop Document
    ASCR Workshop on In Situ Data Management Bethesda North Marriott Hotel and Conference Center 5701 Marinelli Road, Rockville, MD 20852 January 28 - 29, 2019 https://www.orau.gov/insitudata2019/ Pre-Workshop Document 1. Introduction The Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) will convene a workshop on In Situ Data Management (ISDM) on January 28-29, 2019 at the Bethesda North Marriott in Rockville, MD. This document provides background information on ISDM, information about the purpose of workshop and expected outcomes, as well as some logistics information for participants. Purpose of the Workshop Scientific computing will increasingly incorporate a number of different tasks that need to be managed along with the main simulation tasks. For example, this year’s SC18 agenda featured in situ infrastructures, in situ analytics, big data analytics, workflows, data intensive science, machine learning, deep learning, and graph analytics—all nontraditional applications unheard of in an HPC conference just a few years ago. Perhaps most surprising, more than half of the 2018 Gordon Bell finalists featured some form of artificial intelligence, deep learning, graph analysis, or experimental data analysis in conjunction with or instead of a single computational model that solves a system of differential equations. We define ISDM as the practices, capabilities, and procedures to control the organization of data and enable the coordination and communication among heterogeneous tasks, executing simultaneously in an HPC system, cooperating toward a common objective. This workshop considers In Situ Data Management beyond the traditional roles of accelerating simulation I/O and visualizing simulation results, to more broadly support future scientific computing needs.
