DESCRIPTION (provided by the applicant): The proposed work will establish national networking of scientists by providing a new software system (VIVO) and support for scientists using VIVO. Scientists using VIVO will be able to find other scientists and their work. Conversely, scientists using VIVO will be found by other scientists doing similar or complimentary work. VIVO leverages work done over the past five years by Cornell University, supporting researchers and finding of researchers by representing data about them and their activities including publications, awards, presentations and partners. VIVO is fully extensible and based on Sematic Web concepts insuring sound data representation, vastly improved search over existing text based methods and integration of data with other applications. Support for researchers using VIVO will be done by librarians of the research institutions. Librarians provide an existing and fully integrated resource for enabling researchers and the national network. The project will provide six deliverables: 1) A first release of the software to be used at the seven participating institutions focused on institutional resources. This release will be used to help establish internal support for the system and build understanding of system value; 2) A second release incorporating all national networking features which will be used by the seven participating institutions to demonstrate the viability and utility of national deployment; 3) A third release incorporating features requested by the NIH and the project's Executive Advisory Board, fully integrated with the corresponding resource discovery solution, enabling full national networking capability; 4) a community support process to insure sustainability; 5) a sustainable, open product development process; and 6) a national, on-going governance process. The national networking of scientists enabled by VIVO will provide a fundamental new capability to improve biomedical research and human health. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE (provided by the applicant) Establishing national networking of scientists will significantly improve all of biomedical research in the United States by providing opportunities across all disciplines to identify existing and on-going work, identify potential new collaborations and improve and extend existing collaborations. National networking gives scientists critical new information regarding current scientific activity to improve science, knowledge and human health.

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的工作将通过提供新的软件系统（VIVO）和支持使用VIVO的科学家来建立国家科学家网络。使用VIVO的科学家将能够找到其他科学家和他们的工作。相反，使用VIVO的科学家会被其他做类似或免费工作的科学家发现。VIVO利用康奈尔大学在过去五年中所做的工作，通过代表有关他们及其活动的数据，包括出版物，奖项，演讲和合作伙伴，支持研究人员和研究人员的发现。VIVO是完全可扩展的，基于语义网络概念，确保良好的数据表示，大大改善了现有的基于文本的方法和数据与其他应用程序的集成搜索。研究机构的图书管理员将为使用VIVO的研究人员提供支持。图书馆员为研究人员和国家网络提供了一个现有的、完全整合的资源。 该项目将提供六项成果：1）将在七个参与机构使用的软件的第一版，重点是机构资源。这一版将用来帮助建立对该系统的内部支持，并建立对系统价值的了解; 2）第二版将包括所有国家联网的特点，供七个参加机构用来证明国家部署的可行性和效用; 3）第三版包含NIH和项目执行顾问委员会要求的功能，与相应的资源发现解决方案完全集成，实现全面的国家联网能力; 4）社区支持过程，以确保可持续性; 5）可持续的开放式产品开发过程;以及6）国家持续治理过程。由VIVO促成的全国科学家网络将为改善生物医学研究和人类健康提供基本的新能力。 公共卫生相关性（由申请人提供）建立国家科学家网络将通过提供跨所有学科的机会来识别现有和正在进行的工作，识别潜在的新合作，并改善和扩展现有的合作，从而显着改善美国的所有生物医学研究。国家网络为科学家提供了关于当前科学活动的重要新信息，以改善科学、知识和人类健康。
