DSpace for Cultural Heritage: adding support for images visualization,audio/v...Andrea Bollini
Digital Repositories are continuously evolving into platforms aimed at managing, visualizing, curating and preserving a variety of different cultural digital objects together with their relationships
To support interoperability and to allow a broad dissemination and re-use of cultural heritage and research results, we have built two DSpace add-ons to be released as open source, the IIIF (International Image Interoperability Framework) Image Viewer and the audio/video streaming module. The first one manages the complexity of digital objects such as page sequences, chapters and sections, exposing the metadata and the structure with the IIIF presentation API and use the IIIF API to provide fast visualization and low bandwidth use. The streaming module allows to stream audio / video content loaded in the repository using adaptive streaming and the DASH industry standard. Both modules provide a full open source stack or enable the integration with external Images and Media Server.
Managing the relations between digital objects both in a hierarchical or relational way is a key feature, in order to manage every kind of cultural heritage material. Thus we are enhancing the DSpace Data Model in order to provide not only structural metadata management but also the description of relationships within cultural contexts.

Panel Discussion: COAR Next Generation Repositories: Results and Recommendations
The presentation focus on the recommended technologies to implement in Repository platforms
The nearly ubiquitous deployment of repository systems in higher education and research institutions provides the foundation for a distributed, globally networked infrastructure for scholarly communication. However, repository platforms are still using technologies and protocols designed almost twenty years ago, before the boom of the Web and the dominance of Google, social networking, semantic web and ubiquitous mobile devices.
To that end, in April 2016, COAR launched a working group to identify the technologies and architectures of the next generation of repositories. There are two threads to our work: (1) increase the exposure by repositories of uniform behaviors that can be used by machine agents to fuel novel scholarly applications that reach beyond the scope of a single repository and that enable to smoothly embed repository content into mainstream web applications. (2) integrate with existing scholarly infrastructures, specifically those aimed at identification, as a means to solidly embed repositories in the overall scholarly communication landscape.
This panel will present the results of the COAR Next Generation Repositories Working Group including our vision, design assumptions, use cases, architectural and technical recommendations, and next steps. The session will also include time for audience discussion and feedback.

DSpace-CRIS: an open source solution - Cineca euroCRIS membership meeting Por...Andrea Bollini
The idea of DSpace-CRIS has its origin in 2009 when the Hong Kong University decided to extend the information exposed in their DSpace IR adding information (people/projects) coming from other systems already in use (mainly) for administrative purpose: a CRIS.
One year ago, November 2012, DSpace-CRIS was released as an open source solution to enrich DSpace (1.8.2). After highlighting the important steps made by the DSpace Community in 2013, that will bring to the final release of DSpace 4.0 in December, Cineca focused its presentation on what DSpace-CRIS is today.
The most important announcement was that DSpace-CRIS is now compatible and compliant with the CERIF standard and that an export feature in CERIF XML will be available in the DSpace-CRIS 4.0 version. Indeed the key components of the CERIF data model are supported natively: UUID, timestamped relation, semantic characterization.
In addition to that, the dynamic, flexible and not hardcoded approach of DSpace-CRIS data model makes it very easy to create new entities (besides the few predefined ones) and configure instances compliant with CERIF.
There are several advantages that DSpace-CRIS brings to Institutional Repositories and to the DSpace community overall:
- CRIS entities as authority for Item metadata values;
- DSpace Items can be linked and displayed in the detail page of any CRIS entities;
- Ability to display selected publications (or any other related entities) in the researcher profile;
- It is possible to create lists of selected publications (or any other related entities);
- CRIS entity detailed page visit;
- Global & Top related CERIF Entity views & downloads referencing the CRIS entity (projects for researchers, researchers for OrgUnits, etc.);
- Global & Top item views & downloads referencing the CRIS entity;
- email and RSS alerts;
- Article level metrics for PubMed (extensible):
- Cited-by count in the item page
- Number of articles for researcher
- Total citations for researcher (only items in local DSpace database will be counted)
DSpace-CRIS: new features and contribution to the DSpace mainstreamAndrea Bollini
The presentation focus on the latest releases of DSpace-CRIS, compatible with DSpace 5 and 6, with new exciting features. Particularly interesting is the recent integration between DSpace-CRIS and CKAN released as an independent module. The DSpace-CKAN Integration Module has already been released in open source (same license than DSpace) and it can easily adopted also by standard DSpace installations, both JSPUI or XMLUI.
Starting with DSpace-CRIS 5.6.1, along with the security fixes of DSpace JSPUI 5.6, the following features have been introduced: an extendible UI to deliver the bitstreams with dedicated viewers, a simple metadata editing of any DSpace object; the editing of archived items using the submission UI; a deduplication and duplicate-alert tool; improved ORCiD synchronization; improved submission form; improved security model for CRIS entities; creation of CRIS object as part of the submission process, automatic calculation of metrics; advanced import framework; on-demand DOI registration; template services.
DSpace-CKAN Integration Module allows users to directly preview the dataset content deposited in a CKAN instance from DSpace via a “curation task”. DSpace-CRIS and DSpace-CKAN will be supported by 4Science also for the future major versions of the platform and the roadmap to the DSpace 7 compatibility will be also presented.

The research area is a complex world to manage. It involves collecting data, supporting researchers and administrators, monitoring results, allocating resources efficiently, enhancing visibility, and strengthening national and international collaborations. RIMs manage these activities, but they might be too expensive. This is why Cineca developed DSpace-CRIS, and released it in open source.

My colleague, (Merrick) Lex Berman, who is Web Service Manager & GIS Specialist, at the Center for Geographic Analysis at Harvard presented this as part of the Program on Information Science Brown Bag Series. Lex is an expert in applications related to digital humanities, GIS, and chinese history -- and has developed many interesting tools in this area.
In his talk, Lex notes how the library catalog has evolved from the description of items in physical collections into a wide-reaching net of services and tools for managing both physical collections and networked resources: The line between descriptive metadata and actual content is becoming blurred. Librarians and catalogers are now in the position of being not only docents of collections, but innovators in digital research, and this opens up a number of opportunities for retooling library discovery tools. His presentation will presented survey of methods and projects that have extended traditional catalogs of libraries and museums into online collections of digital objects in the field of humanities -- focusing on projects that use historical place names and geographic identifiers for linked open data will be discussed.

Presenters: Andrea Bollini, Michele Mennielli
Cineca, Italy
We would like to share with the DSpace Community some useful tips, starting from how to embed DSpace into a larger IT ecosystem that can provide additional value to the information managed. We will then show how publication data in DSpace - enriched with a proper use of the authority framework - can be combined with information coming from the HR system. Thanks to this, the system can provide rich and detailed reports and analysis through a business intelligence solution based on the Pentaho’s Mondrian OLAP open source data integration tools.
We will also present other use cases related to the management of publication information for reporting purpose: publication record has an extended lifecycle compared to the one in a basic IR; system load is much bigger, especially in writing, since the researchers need to be able to make changes to enrich data when new requirements come from the government or the university researcher office; data quality requires the ability to make distributed changes to the publication also after the conclusion of a validation workflow.
Finally we intend to present our direct experience and the challenges we faced to make DSpace easily and rapidly deployable to more than 60 sites.

Presentation given at OR2019 in Hamburg, Germany
In recent years there has been an increasing need to position institutional repositories in a broader context that enhances research opportunities and facilitates the discovery of resources. This presentation is about DSpace-CRIS and DSpace-GLAM, in their new version compatible with DSpace 7, with renewed features built with the updated technology stack of DSpace 7: Angular and REST API, their characteristics and novelties, and how their adoption can empower the role of repositories within academic, research, and cultural heritage institutions. The migration process for both DSpace-CRIS/GLAM and DSpace users that want to enhance their repository with the additional features and capabilities provided by version 7 will be presented. DSpace-CRIS and GLAM are continuously being aligned with DSpace versions and support is provided through the same community channels. Finally, the future roadmap of the project will be discussed, in the same way as in the last ten years when ideas and features blossomed in DSpace-CRIS were later adopted by the standard DSpace distribution. The community is numerous and growing and the exchange of experiences is beneficial for all organizations.

IRIS is the new CRIS (Current Research Information System) developed by Cineca, resulting from the
merge of two different solutions that have been used by Italian universities in the last 10 years. By the end of 2015, over 60 Italian Universities will be using IRIS. One of the main components of IRIS is Dspace-CRIS, an open source stand-alone mixed repository-CRIS platform (developed by the Consortium) that combines the agile OA content management provided by DSpace with additional CERIF compliant CRIS features built on top (such as persons, organisations and projects).
IRIS has 5 different modules that can work independently, but at the same time they interoperate through standard protocols and interfaces.

merge of two different solutions that have been used by Italian universities in the last 10 years. By the end of 2015, over 60 Italian Universities will be using IRIS. One of the main components of IRIS is Dspace-CRIS, an open source stand-alone mixed repository-CRIS platform (developed by the Consortium) that combines the agile OA content management provided by DSpace with additional CERIF compliant CRIS features built on top (such as persons, organisations and projects).
IRIS has 5 different modules that can work independently, but at the same time they interoperate through standard protocols and interfaces.

IFLA LIDASIG Open Session 2017: Introduction to Linked DataLars G. Svensson
At the IFLA Linked Data Special Interest Group open session in Wroclaw we briefly introduced the mission of the SIG and then went on to a brief introduction to what linked data is and why that topic is important to libraries.
The presentation was held jointly by Astrid Verheusen (general introduction to the SIG) and Lars G. Svensson (introduction to Linked Data)
This paper surveys the landscape of linked open data projects in cultural heritage, exam- ining the work of groups from around the world. Traditionally, linked open data has been ranked using the five star method proposed by Tim Berners-Lee. We found this ranking to be lacking when evaluating how cultural heritage groups not merely develop linked open datasets, but find ways to used linked data to augment user experience. Building on the five-star method, we developed a six-stage life cycle describing both dataset development and dataset usage. We use this framework to describe and evaluate fifteen linked open data projects in the realm of cultural heritage.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

COAR Venice 2017 Next Generation Repository Session: What can be done, right now!
1. What can be done, right now!
Andrea Bollini, 4Science (CTO)
http://www.4science.it/en/
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
2. Who I am?
…a proud member of the COAR Next Generation
Repository Working Group
…the deputy leader of the euroCRIS CERIF &
Architecture Task Group
…an active developer in the open scholarly field
since 2004
…a strong advocate of the DSpace platform,
committer and Lead of the REST API sub-team for
DSpace 7
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
3. Agenda: how to implement that?
The mission of a repository is to manage and provide
access to the valuable and diverse intellectual output of
the community it serves.
Repositories are nodes in a larger network, contributing
their collective contents to a global knowledge
commons on top of which value added services can be
built.
Repositories provide access to published articles as well
as to a broad range of artifacts beyond traditional
publications such as datasets, pre-prints, working
papers, images, software, and so on.
We also aim to create a global brand for repositories
that establishes repositories as a central place for the
daily research and dissemination activities of
researchers.
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
4. Beyond traditional publications
Provide access to digital
content doesn’t mean to allow
the download of the bits
sequence…
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
5. Beyond traditional publications
Datasets need to be usable:
preview, sampling, visualization,
remote computation & more
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
6. Dataset: good examples
CKAN: Preview, sampling, visualization and open
webservices for tabular data
https://ckan.org/
Dataverse: allow exploration of tabular dataset
and Geospatial files
http://dataverse.org/
DSpace-CRIS & DSpace-CKAN addon:
https://github.com/4Science/dspace-ckan
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
8. DSpace-CKAN: preview tabular & geospatial data
Paginated and filterable

9. Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
DSpace-CKAN: preview tabular & geospatial data
different visualization
10. All that is powered by REST webservices
(CKAN datastore)
–Machine to machine interaction
(researchers can use the datasets from R
or other workbench tools)
–New applications can immediately re-
use such data (for example a mobile
app)
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
11. What about images?
• An astrophysics image can go over 5GB!
• High-quality scanned book have images
typically over 100MB for each page
• Medical images have similar dimensions
• The structure of images sequences are
complex and relevant (page sequences,
evolution of phenomena in medical
images, etc.)
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
12. Beyond traditional publications
Image files (medical, astrophysics, cultural
heritage: digitalized manuscript, rare books,
etc.) need to be consulted online, discussed
and commented / annotated
IIIF protocols and formats allow you to
meet these requirements in a standard and
understandable way (for both humans and
machine)
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
13. Discussion around the IIIF Support in DSpace:

Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
17. Beyond traditional publications
… the same requirements apply to audio and
video content
- Streaming
- Internal structure
- Annotation / commenting / transcript
Adopt an open standard: the MPEG-DASH
format allows adaptive streaming over simple
html client with full support for multiple tracks,
ToC, subtitles
Discussion around the IIIF Support in DSpace:

Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
18. Open peer-review
Central place for the daily research and
dissemination activities of researchers
An open peer-review module has been
released for the DSpace platform
https://github.com/arvoConsultores/Open-Peer-Review-Module/wiki
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
19. Open peer-review
Regardless to the specific implemented
functionalities, I want to highlight the
workflow:
1. Start from the repository («live» content:
working paper research)
2. Capture new content: review, comments
3. Expose this content to allow further analysis
4. Capture or produce the analysis
5. Expose the analysis results (reviewer
ranking, quality indicators, etc.)
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
20. …repositories are nodes in a larger
network, contributing their collective
contents to a global knowledge
commons on top of which value added
services can be built.
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
21. Signposting -
http://signposting.org/
Signposting is an approach to make the scholarly web
more friendly to machines exposing relations as Typed
Links in HTTP Link headers
The following discovering patterns are currently defined:
• Author
• Bibliographic Metadata
• Identifier
• Publication Boundary
• Resource Type
The Signposting approach is fully aligned with
hypermedia (REST, HATEOAS) lines of thinking regarding
web interoperability.
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
22. Signposting -
http://signposting.org/
As an example, Herbert Van de Sompel and
Michael L. Nelson are the authors of the paper
with DOI https://doi.org/10.1045/november2015-
vandesompel; their
respective ORCIDs are http://orcid.org/0000-
0002-0715-6126 and http://orcid.org/0000-0003-
3749-8116
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
24. ResourceSync -
http://www.openarchives.org/rs/1.1/resourcesync
• Successor of the OAI-PMH protocol and
much more…
• Faster, reliable and scalable
• Allows real-time notification (and
recovering of missed messages)
• Drives resource synchronization: content
and metadata are both managed
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
25. DSpace 7
• A new single UI built on top of a freshly REST API
based on the HATEOS principles is under
development:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/DSpac
e+7+UI+Working+Group
• A ticket to stimulate discussion about the
implementation of the signposting pattern has
been created:
https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-3589
• A first implementation of resourcesync for
DSpace was produced:
https://github.com/CottageLabs/DSpaceResource
Sync a ticket now exists to resume such
implementation:
https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-3590
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
26. A reflection on the current
repositories data model
• A revision of the current data model is
needed
• Precise identification of persons,
organizations, projects, concepts and
linked resources (dataset, different
versions etc.)
• Avoid loss of details to allow a fine grain
and effective interoperability
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - COAR Annual Meeting 2017 – Venice, Italy
