网络基础设施(CI)人员对下一代科学研究至关重要。尽管资助机构和大学越来越意识到这一点,但使能资源的增长速度并不像对传播与信息技能和能力的需求那样快。关于传播和信息人员有两个主要问题:传播和信息人员稀缺,网络基础设施不同于传统的信息技术。解决这些问题的一个可能的答案是CI领域的专业化。在这篇文章中,我们利用组织科学来论证,一种强有力的专业化形式对CI员工队伍没有意义。然而,我们鼓励为CI人员开发标准化的角色,我们建议从三个这样的角色开始:面向系统,面向软件和面向CI角色的研究人员。围绕这三个角色的认证工作也可以加强该领域。最后,我们讨论了前进的方向。
Cyberinfrastructure (CI) personnel are critical to next-generation scientific research. Although funding agencies and universities increasingly realize this, enabling resources do not grow as fast as the need for the CI skills and capabilities. There are two main issues with respect to CI personnel: CI personnel are scarce and cyberinfrastructure is different from traditional information technology ("IT"). A potential answer to these issues is to professionalize the CI field. In this article, we draw on organization science to argue that a strong form of professionalization does not make sense for the CI workforce. However, we do encourage the development of standardized roles for CI personnel, and we recommend starting with three such roles: system facing, software facing, and researcher facing CI roles. A credentialing effort around these three roles could strengthen the field as well. We conclude with a discussion of directions forward.
