RCN: The Governing Knowledge Commons Research Coordination Network

知识共享是指一种制度化的社区治理，用于共享、创造和管理广泛的知识和文化资源。该项目将建立一个研究协调网络（RCN），旨在建立一个将推进这些科学原则的研究共同体。在此过程中，它将有助于发展对共享知识、信息和数据资源的共同治理的经验和理论见解。该RCN将汇集来自法律、社会和行为科学、计算机科学和工程学的研究人员，以跨学科和组织边界进行交流、协调和整合他们的研究和教育活动。融合对于跨学科和跨背景的学习以及跨学科、部门、文化和背景的泛化至关重要。该项目将促进围绕一个具体主题组织的一系列重点突出的工作会议以及一次汇合会议。RCN将包括实地建设的融合、研究基础设施的支持以及通过开放获取格式向公众传播研究知识。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

Knowledge commons refer to the institutionalized community governance of sharing, creating, and curating a wide range of intellectual and cultural resources. This project will establish a Research Coordination Network (RCN) designed to build a research community that will advance these scientific principles. In doing so it will aid in the development of empirical and theoretical insights into commons governance of shared knowledge, information, and data resources.This RCN will assemble researchers from law, the social and behavioral sciences, computer science, and engineering to communicate, coordinate and integrate their research and educational activities across disciplinary and organizational boundaries. Convergence is critical to cross-disciplinary and cross-contextual learning and generalization across disciplines, sectors, cultures, and contexts. The project will facilitate a series of focused working conferences, each organized around a specific subject matter, as well as a convergence conference. The RCN will include convergence of field-building, support of research infrastructure, and dissemination of research knowledge to the public through open access formats.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
