May 29, 2013
National Science Foundation
Arlington, VA
The purpose of this workshop was to have focused discussions on future strategies for managing scientific data and metadata for basic and applied research; specifically,
- (a) how to better enable, encourage, and realize sharing of data, both across disciplinary divides and between “micro-silos” within research domains,
- (b) how to acquire, manage, and curate metadata in order to ensure usability and comprehensibility of data over time and between disciplines, and
- (c) how to enable data discovery, access, and analysis across distributed, public, and private data centers.
