Reproducible Keynote
|
|
Realities of Reproducibility Carole Goble gave a keynote talk on The Reality of Reproducibility of Computational Science at IEEE e-Science 2012 in Chicago on Thursday 11th October Reproducibility in principle underpins the scientific method. For an experimental finding to be reproducible its materials must be available and its methods clear, accurate and transparent. In this talk I will explore the reality of reproducibility in computational science, focusing on methods that use workflows. I will discuss what we mean by reproducibility; differentiate between the preservation and conservation of workflows; sketch the role provenance has to play; and point to a growing number of initiatives that aim to make in silico science reproducible, including our own first steps towards a reproducibility framework based on Research Objects. Although technical infrastructure helps towards the utopian ideal of truly reproducible science it is social factors that define the reality.

Advanced Digital Scholorship
|
|
Web Conferences, April 2012 David De Roure's keynote on The Rise of New Digital Scholarship at WebIST 2012 featured myExperiment. Here's the abstract: Researchers in multiple disciplines have harnessed the Web to establish new research methods. The Web is the most usable, scalable and programmable research infrastructure we've ever had, and delivers the e-Science vision of an infrastructure for "distributed global collaboration". It also brings more people together than ever before, and the scale of digital participation has led to the new methods of citizen science. As people increasingly live their lives digitally the Web also becomes a new means of studying behaviour: we are seeing the rise of Web Observatories, and the emerging discipline of Web Science shows us that the sociotechnical Web is a subject of study in its own right, giving rise to new theories of "social machines". These new research practices have also led to evolution in research communication, with new digital artefacts and new mechanisms of scholarly discourse. With this new scale, democratisation and automation of research come important challenges, from "big data" to ethics. This talk will describe the many aspects of new digital scholarship being conducted by researchers on, in and about the Web. Slides are available in PowerPoint 2011, PDF and on myExperiment in Pack 259. Attendees of WWW2012 in Lyon were also invited to an informal gathering for the new W3C Web Observatory Community Group on the morning of Friday April 20, 2012. |

Repositories and Linked Open Data: the view from myExperiment
|
|
myExperiment at Open Repositories 2010, Madrid, June 2010. David De Roure gave the opening keynote talk at the Fifth International Conference on Open Repositories, July 6th – 9th, 2010 in Madrid, Spain. While some repositories are focused on data, the myExperiment project has demonstrated the value in sharing the methods that are used to process that data - sharing know-how and building new capabilities through the community. Evolving usage of the website provides glimpses of the future behaviour of researchers and an exploration of what researchers might be sharing in the future instead of papers. This exploration of social sharing and ad hoc reuse has taken the project into the world of scholarly research objects, linked data and what might be described as "Linked Open Methods". We now see researchers beginning to share new methods that operate at this next level of research. |
