This slides were presented at the CRIS2014 conference. We talked about Research Link, a service offered by CINECA created to expose Research Outputs of Italian Universities in Linked Open Data

14. Exploit in practice
A demo report about wine at University of Verona:
• Wine is a trending topic?

15. Exploit in practice
A demo report about wine at University of Verona:
• Wine and..

16. Exploit in practice
A demo report about wine at University of Verona:
• Wine help people working together? 

17. Lesson learned..
and next steps
Open Data
exploitation is not
very clear
• Lots of the effort
will be in Linked
Data Reuse
• Publish data in
other useful ways
Synchronization
issues with the data
source
• More tightly
coupled with the
data source (i.e. the
new CINECA CRIS
called IRIS)
We need more data
and better links!
• More persistent
identifiers!
• Tagging per domain
• Not only
bibliographic data
