The goal of this national, interdisciplinary S2I2 workshop is to resolve and document the type of software architecture, platforms, and services needed to transform U.S. biological collection institutions into a highly network-integrated, virtual community of biodiversity data providers. The workshop will bring together professionals from the fields of research collection curation, software engineering, operations research, and production logistics. It will discuss the expectations of biological research collections community for national coordination of software innovation. It will also enumerate the properties and services such a center would need to incentivize and engage the community, including technical services, data entry workflows, software platforms and applications for efficient, scalable, computerization of un-digitized specimen collections. With its interdisciplinary expertise, the workshop will explore software options for moving from local-scale data capture and curation methodologies to innovative, national-scale tools for high-throughput computerization and annotation of biological specimen information.The workshop?s findings will be synthesized into an electronic report on the meeting web site. It will inform NSF, scientists, and informatics researchers of the software and software support needed to create a national software architecture, platforms, and services, which would transform hundreds of U.S. zoological museums and herbaria into a vibrant virtual community of interacting biodiversity data providers.

这个全国性跨学科 S2I2 研讨会的目标是解决并记录将美国生物收集机构转变为高度网络集成的生物多样性数据提供商虚拟社区所需的软件架构、平台和服务类型。该研讨会将汇集来自研究馆藏管理、软件工程、运筹学和生产物流领域的专业人士。它将讨论生物研究馆藏界对国家软件创新协调的期望。它还将列举这样一个中心需要激励和吸引社区的属性和服务，包括技术服务、数据输入工作流程、软件平台和应用程序，以实现非数字化标本收藏的高效、可扩展、计算机化。凭借跨学科的专业知识，研讨会将探索从本地规模的数据捕获和管理方法转向创新的国家规模的生物标本信息高通量计算机化和注释工具的软件选择。研讨会的研究结果将被综合到会议网站上的电子报告中。它将向 NSF、科学家和信息学研究人员提供创建国家软件架构、平台和服务所需的软件和软件支持，从而将数百个美国动物博物馆和植物标本馆转变为一个由生物多样性数据提供者互动组成的充满活力的虚拟社区。
