Collaborative Research: Workshop on Acquiring and Sharing Data Within the CMMI Research Community; Arlington, Virginia; December 7-8, 2016

在多个学科中，已经确定了对用于管理、存储和共享研究数据的强大而可靠的基础设施的日益增长的需求。虽然不同研究社区的需求会有所不同，但土木、机械和制造创新社区在数据基础设施方面存在许多共同问题。该奖项支持一个研讨会，该研讨会将这些社区聚集在一起，以确定这些需求，从数据基础设施进一步发展的社区的成功中学习，并计划在建立工具，资源，和文化的转变，需要带来开放共享的研究数据，以广泛的工程界。该奖项支持的研讨会将突出必须解决的关键问题，以实现大数据对美国国家科学基金会土木、机械和制造创新部（CMMI）所代表的研究领域的全面影响和使用。社区将召开会议，以（1）制定一个总体战略和短期研究议程，以捕获和共享大量数据（2）推荐方法和技术，使CMMI研究社区可以获得和使用大型数据集（3）建立跨学科的研究团队，可以为CMMI研究社区开发原型平台（4）建议NSF数据管理计划的最佳实践。大约60名社区成员，包括初级和高级研究人员，数据科学家，图书馆科学家和科学出版社区的成员将在弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿的NSF总部召开会议。

The ever increasing need for a robust and reliable infrastructure for the curation, storage and sharing of research data has been identified across multiple disciplines. While the needs of different research communities will vary, there are many issues which the Civil, Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation communities will have in common for data infrastructure. This award supports a workshop which brings these communities together to identify these needs, learn from the success of communities whose data infrastructures are further advanced, and plan for paths forward in establishing the tools, resources, and culture shifts needed to bring open sharing of research data to the broad engineering community.The workshop supported by this award will highlight the key issues that must be addressed to realize the full impact and use of big data on the research areas represented in the Division of Civil, Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation (CMMI) at the National Science Foundation. The community will convene to (1) develop an overall strategy and short term research agenda for capturing and sharing large volumes of data (2) recommend methods and techniques for making large data sets available and usable by the CMMI research communities (3) forge interdisciplinary research teams that can develop prototype platforms for CMMI research communities and (4) suggest best practices for NSF data management plans. Approximately 60 members of the community, including both junior and senior researchers, data scientists, library scientists, and members of the scientific publishing community will convene in Arlington, VA at NSF Headquarters.
