The document discusses integrating ORCID identifiers with HUBzero, an open-source platform for online scientific collaboration and research. It describes three use cases for the integration: 1) allowing new users to register with HUBzero and create an associated ORCID identifier, 2) linking a user's HUBzero profile to their ORCID profile, and 3) including a user's ORCID identifier in metadata when they publish datasets through HUBzero. A prototype has been implemented and tested with three Hubs (nanoHUB, PURR, and HABRI Central), with plans to contribute the integration code to the next HUBzero software release.

2. HUBZERO
• HUBzero, open source software: http://hubzero.org
• Originally funded by NSF, maintained by HUBzero Foundation
• Built to facilitate virtual communities and online, scientific
collaboration, research and learning
• Collaborate, develop, publish, archive, and interact with
software tools, datasets, documents, multimedia, learning
objects, etc.
• Social network functionality and collaboration features
• LAMP stack, Joomla framework, OpenVZ and Rappture, git,
etc.
• EZID interface to mint DataCite DOIs
• Over 50 hubs online, supporting different virtual scientific
communities, hundreds of thousands of users
PLATFORM FOR SCIENTIFIC COLLABORATION

SUPPORTING DIFFERENT VIRTUAL COMMUNITIES OF RESEARCHERS

4. REPOSITORY WORKFLOWS
Three simple use cases:
1. New user registration
User creates hub account & creates/associates
ORCID identifier
2. Edit and link user profile to ORCID
Link between hub user dashboard and ORCID
3. User publishes a dataset
ORCID identifier is included in DOI metadata to
DataCite
HUBZERO-ORCID INTEGRATION

5. Use case 1:
New user registration

11. Use case 2:
Link & edit ORCID from user
dashboard

16. Use case 3:
Include ORCID in Digital Object
Identifier (DOI) metadata

20. CURRENT STATUS
• All three use cases implemented in prototype
• Pilot test with three hubs in April
• nanoHUB, http://nanohub.org
• PURR, http://purr.purdue.edu
• HABRI Central, http://habri.org
• Demo in May at ORCID Outreach Meeting
• Contribute source code to HUBzero, next
version release in September 2014
