The presentation explores the trend towards a scholarly communication system that is friendly to machines. It presents 3 exhibits illustrating the trend and 1 exhibit illustrating inertia in the system. It makes the point that machine-actionability can be much easier achieved if content and metadata are available in Open Access and under a permissive Creative Commons license. It also observes that even with content and metadata openly available, new costs related to advanced tools to explore the scholarly record will emerge. Finally, it points at significant challenges regarding the persistence of the scholarly record in light of increasingly interconnected and actionable content and advanced tools to interact with it.
The slides were used for a plenary presentation at the LIBER 2011 Conference in Barcelona, Spain, on June 30 2011.

As the scholarly communication system evolves to become natively web-based and starts supporting the communication of a wide variety of objects, the manner in which its essential functions – registration, certification, awareness, archiving - are fulfilled co-evolves. This presentation focuses on the nature of the archival function based on a perspective of the future scholarly communication infrastructure. This presentation, prepared for a meeting in June 2014, is based on and updates a previous one that was prepared for a January 2014 meeting.

FAIRDOM - FAIR Asset management and sharing experiences in Systems and Synthe...Carole Goble
Over the past 5 years we have seen a change in expectations for the management of all the outcomes of research – that is the “assets” of data, models, codes, SOPs and so forth. Don’t stop reading. Data management isn’t likely to win anyone a Nobel prize. But publications should be supported and accompanied by data, methods, procedures, etc. to assure reproducibility of results. Funding agencies expect data (and increasingly software) management retention and access plans as part of the proposal process for projects to be funded. Journals are raising their expectations of the availability of data and codes for pre- and post- publication. The multi-component, multi-disciplinary nature of Systems Biology demands the interlinking and exchange of assets and the systematic recording
of metadata for their interpretation.
The FAIR Guiding Principles for scientific data management and stewardship (http://www.nature.com/articles/sdata201618) has been an effective rallying-cry for EU and USA Research Infrastructures. FAIRDOM (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable Data, Operations and Models) Initiative has 8 years of experience of asset sharing and data infrastructure ranging across European programmes (SysMO and EraSysAPP ERANets), national initiatives (de.NBI, German Virtual Liver Network, UK SynBio centres) and PI's labs. It aims to support Systems and Synthetic Biology researchers with data and model management, with an emphasis on standards smuggled in by stealth and sensitivity to asset sharing and credit anxiety.
This talk will use the FAIRDOM Initiative to discuss the FAIR management of data, SOPs, and models for Sys Bio, highlighting the challenges of and approaches to sharing, credit, citation and asset infrastructures in practice. I'll also highlight recent experiments in affecting sharing using behavioural interventions.

The common use by archaeologists of ubiquitous technologies such as computers and digital cameras means that archaeological research projects now produce huge amounts of diverse, digital documentation. However, while the technology is available to collect this documentation, we still largely lack community accepted dissemination channels appropriate for such torrents of data. Open Context (http://www.opencontext.org) aims to help fill this gap by providing open access data publication services for archaeology. Open Context has a flexible and generalized technical architecture that can accommodate most archaeological datasets, despite the lack of common recording systems or other documentation standards. Open Context includes a variety of tools to make data dissemination easier and more worthwhile. Authorship is clearly identified through citation tools, a web-based publication systems enables individuals upload their own data for review, and collaboration is facilitated through easy download and other features. While we have demonstrated a potentially valuable approach for data sharing, we face significant challenges in scaling Open Context up for serving large quantities of data from multiple projects.

Lecture 1:
Being FAIR: FAIR data and model management
In recent years we have seen a change in expectations for the management of all the outcomes of research – that is the “assets” of data, models, codes, SOPs, workflows. The “FAIR” (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) Guiding Principles for scientific data management and stewardship [1] have proved to be an effective rallying-cry. Funding agencies expect data (and increasingly software) management retention and access plans. Journals are raising their expectations of the availability of data and codes for pre- and post- publication. The multi-component, multi-disciplinary nature of Systems and Synthetic Biology demands the interlinking and exchange of assets and the systematic recording of metadata for their interpretation.
Our FAIRDOM project (http://www.fair-dom.org) supports Systems Biology research projects with their research data, methods and model management, with an emphasis on standards smuggled in by stealth and sensitivity to asset sharing and credit anxiety. The FAIRDOM Platform has been installed by over 30 labs or projects. Our public, centrally hosted Asset Commons, the FAIRDOMHub.org, supports the outcomes of 50+ projects.
Now established as a grassroots association, FAIRDOM has over 8 years of experience of practical asset sharing and data infrastructure at the researcher coal-face ranging across European programmes (SysMO and ERASysAPP ERANets), national initiatives (Germany's de.NBI and Systems Medicine of the Liver; Norway's Digital Life) and European Research Infrastructures (ISBE) as well as in PI's labs and Centres such as the SynBioChem Centre at Manchester.
In this talk I will show explore how FAIRDOM has been designed to support Systems Biology projects and show examples of its configuration and use. I will also explore the technical and social challenges we face.
I will also refer to European efforts to support public archives for the life sciences. ELIXIR (http:// http://www.elixir-europe.org/) the European Research Infrastructure of 21 national nodes and a hub funded by national agreements to coordinate and sustain key data repositories and archives for the Life Science community, improve access to them and related tools, support training and create a platform for dataset interoperability. As the Head of the ELIXIR-UK Node and co-lead of the ELIXIR Interoperability Platform I will show how this work relates to your projects.

The “FAIR” (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) Guiding Principles for scientific data management and stewardship have proved to be an effective rallying-cry. Funding agencies expect data (and increasingly software) management retention and access plans. Journals are raising their expectations of the availability of data and codes for pre- and post- publication. It all sounds very laudable and straightforward. BUT…..
Reproducibility is a R* minefield, depending on whether you are testing for robustness (rerun), defence (repeat), certification (replicate), comparison (reproduce) or transferring between researchers (reuse). Different forms of "R" make different demands on the completeness, depth and portability of research. Sharing is another minefield raising concerns of credit and protection from sharp practices.
In practice the exchange, reuse and reproduction of scientific experiments is dependent on bundling and exchanging the experimental methods, computational codes, data, algorithms, workflows and so on along with the narrative. These "Research Objects" are not fixed, just as research is not “finished”: the codes fork, data is updated, algorithms are revised, workflows break, service updates are released. ResearchObject.org is an effort to systematically support more portable and reproducible research exchange
In this talk I will explore these issues in data-driven computational life sciences through the examples and stories from initiatives I am involved, and Leiden is involved in too including:
· FAIRDOM which has built a Commons for Systems and Synthetic Biology projects, with an emphasis on standards smuggled in by stealth and efforts to affecting sharing practices using behavioural interventions
· ELIXIR, the EU Research Data Infrastructure, and its efforts to exchange workflows
· Bioschemas.org, an ELIXIR-NIH-Google effort to support the finding of assets.

Project Website: http://www.researchobject.org/
researchobjects.org is a community project that has developed an approach to describe and package up all resources used as part of an investigation as Research Objects (RO’s).
RO’s - provide two main features; a manifest - a consistent way to provide a well-typed, structured description of the resources used in an investigation; and a ‘bundle’ - a mechanism for packaging up manifests with resources as a single, publishable unit.
RO’s therefore carry the research context of an experiment - data, software, standard operating procedures (SOPs), models etc - and gather together the components of an experiment so that they are findable, accessible, interoperable and reproducible (FAIR). RO’s combine software and data into an aggregative data structure consisting of well described reconstructable parts.
RO’s have the potential to address a number of challenges pertinent to open research including: a) supporting interoperability between infrastructures by using ROs as a primary mechanism for exchange and publication b) supporting the evolution of research objects as a living collection, enabling provenance tracking c) providing the ability to pivot research object components (data, software, models) that are not restricted to the traditional publication.
Here we present work towards the development and adoption of ROs:
(i) A series of specifications and conventions, using community standards, for the RO manifest and RO bundles.
(ii) Implementations of Java, Python and Ruby APIs and tooling against those specifications;
(iii) Examples of representations of the RO models in various languages (e.g. JSON-LD, RDF, HTML).

Research Objects: why, what and how,
In practice the exchange, reuse and reproduction of scientific experiments is hard, dependent on bundling and exchanging the experimental methods, computational codes, data, algorithms, workflows and so on along with the narrative. These "Research Objects" are not fixed, just as research is not “finished”: codes fork, data is updated, algorithms are revised, workflows break, service updates are released. Neither should they be viewed just as second-class artifacts tethered to publications, but the focus of research outcomes in their own right: articles clustered around datasets, methods with citation profiles. Many funders and publishers have come to acknowledge this, moving to data sharing policies and provisioning e-infrastructure platforms. Many researchers recognise the importance of working with Research Objects. The term has become widespread. However. What is a Research Object? How do you mint one, exchange one, build a platform to support one, curate one? How do we introduce them in a lightweight way that platform developers can migrate to? What is the practical impact of a Research Object Commons on training, stewardship, scholarship, sharing? How do we address the scholarly and technological debt of making and maintaining Research Objects? Are there any examples
I’ll present our practical experiences of the why, what and how of Research Objects.

These slides accompany the LDOW2010 paper "An HTTP-Based Versioning Mechanism for Linked Data". The paper is available at http://arxiv.org/abs/1003.3661. It describes how the combination of the Memento (Time Travel for the Web) framework, and a resource versioning approach that is aligned both with the Cool URI notion and with Tim Berners-Lee concept of Time-Generic and Time-Specific, yields the ability to collect current and prior versions of resource merely using "follow your nose" HTTP navigation. The proposed combination further extends the value of a URI, and allows the emergence of a novel realm of temporal Web applications.

Presentation for PIDapalooza 2016. PIDs need to be used to achieve their intended persistence. Our research (reported at WWW2016, see http://arxiv.org/1602.09102) found that a disturbing percentage of references to papers that have DOIs actually use the landing page HTTP URI instead of the DOI HTTP URI. The problem is likely related to tools used for collecting references such as bookmarks and reference managers. These select the landing page URI instead of the DOI URI because the former is what's available in the address bar. It can safely be assumed that the same problem exists for other types of PIDs. The net result is that the true potential of PIDs is not realized. In order to ameliorate this problem we propose a Signposting pattern for PIDs (http://signposting.org/identifier/). It consists of adding a Link header to HTTP HEAD/GET responses for all resources identified by a DOI, including the landing page and content resources such as "the PDF" and "the dataset". The Link header contains a link, which points with the "identifier" relation type to the DOI HTTP URI. When such a link is available, tools can automatically discover and use the DOI URI instead of the other URIs (landing page, PDF, dataset) associated with the DOI-identified object.
Memento: Big Leaps Towards Seamless Navigation of the Web of the PastHerbert Van de Sompel
These slides provide an explanation of the Memento Framework (time travel for the Web) from the perspective of resource versioning. It also details progress that has been made with deploying the framework since it was first introduced in November 2009, including standardization, development of tools, and advocacy. In addition, it touches upon new challenges (discovery, branding) and announces plans to make transactional Web archiving software available in the course of 2011.
DBpedia Archive using Memento, Triple Pattern Fragments, and HDTHerbert Van de Sompel
DBpedia is the Linked Data version of Wikipedia. Starting in 2007, several DBpedia dumps have been made available for download. In 2010, the Research Library at the Los Alamos National Laboratory used these dumps to deploy a Memento-compliant DBpedia Archive, in order to demonstrate the applicability and appeal of accessing temporal versions of Linked Data sets using the Memento “Time Travel for the Web” protocol. The archive supported datetime negotiation to access various temporal versions of RDF descriptions of DBpedia subject URIs.
In a recent collaboration with the iMinds Group of Ghent University, the DBpedia Archive received a major overhaul. The initial MongoDB storage approach, which was unable to handle increasingly large DBpedia dumps, was replaced by HDT, the Binary RDF Representation for Publication and Exchange. And, in addition to the existing subject URI access point, Triple Pattern Fragments access, as proposed by the Linked Data Fragments project, was added. This allows datetime negotiation for URIs that identify RDF triples that match subject/predicate/object patterns. To add this powerful capability, native Memento support was added to the Linked Data Fragments Server of Ghent University.
In this talk, we will include a brief refresher of Memento, and will cover Linked Data Fragments, Triple Pattern Fragments, and HDT in more detail. We will share lessons learned from this effort and demo the new DBpedia Archive, which, at this point, holds over 5 billion RDF triples.
A open science presentation focusing on the benefits to be gained and basic practices to follow. This was given on behalf of FOSTER at the Open Science Boos(t)camp event at KU Leuven on 24th October 2014.

Scientists are looking for ways to leverage web 2.0 technologies in the research laboratory and as a consequence a number of approaches to web-based electronic notebooks are being evaluated. In this presentation I discuss the Eureka Research Workbench, an electronic laboratory notebook built on semantic technology and XML. Using this approach the context of the information recorded in the laboratory can be captured and searched along with the data itself. A discussion of the current system is presented along with the next planned development of the framework and long-term plans relative to linked open data. Presented at the 246th American Chemical Society Meeting in Indianapolis, IN, USA on September 12th, 2013.
Jean-Claude Bradley presents on "Peer Review and Science2.0: blogs, wikis and social networking sites" as a guest lecturer for the “Peer Review Culture in Scholarly Publication and Grantmaking” course at Drexel University. The main thrust of the presentation is that peer review alone is not capable of coping with the increasing flood of scientific information being generated and shared. Arguments are made to show that providing sufficient proof for scientific findings does scale and weakens the tragedy of the trusted source cascade.

Towards Knowledge Graph based Representation, Augmentation and Exploration of...Sören Auer
Despite an improved digital access to scientific publications in the last decades, the fundamental principles of scholarly communication remain unchanged and continue to be largely document-based. The document-oriented workflows in science have reached the limits of adequacy as highlighted by recent discussions on the increasing proliferation of scientific literature, the deficiency of peer-review and the reproducibility crisis. We need to represent, analyse, augment and exploit scholarly communication in a knowledge-based way by expressing and linking scientific contributions and related artefacts through semantically rich, interlinked knowledge graphs. This should be based
on deep semantic representation of scientific contributions, their manual, crowd-sourced and automatic augmentation and finally the intuitive exploration and interaction employing question answering on the resulting scientific knowledge base. We need to synergistically combine automated extraction and augmentation techniques, with large-scale collaboration to reach an unprecedented level of knowledge graph breadth and depth. As a result, knowledge-based information flows can facilitate completely new ways of search and exploration. The efficiency and effectiveness of scholarly communication will significant increase, since ambiguities are reduced, reproducibility is facilitated, redundancy is avoided, provenance and contributions can be better traced and the interconnections of research contributions are made more explicit and transparent. In this talk we will present first steps in this direction in the context of our Open Research Knowledge Graph initiative and the ScienceGRAPH project.
How serendipitous is discovery for users? Like many a teenager, OpenURL linking can behave inappropriately. What can we do to smooth out the bumps on the road and what other tools are available? This breakout session will walk swiftly through linking to discovery targets, from OpenURL 0.1/1.0, to Index-Enhanced Direct Linking, Link 2.0 and beyond …

Similar to Towards a Machine-Actionable Scholarly Communication System (20)
Presentation about reference rot given at the Complexity Science Hub in Vienna, November 2021.
Links to web resources frequently break (link rot), and linked content can change at unpredictable rates (content drift). These dynamics of the Web are detrimental when references to web resources provide evidence or supporting information.
This presentation will report on research that assessed the extent of these problems for links to web resources in scholarly literature, by using three vast corpora of publications and a range of public web archives. It will also describe the Robust Link approach that offers a proactive, uniform, and machine-actionable way to combat link rot and content drift. Finally, it will introduce the Robustify web service and API that was devised to generate links that remain functional over time, paying special attention to challenges related to deploying infrastructure that is required to be long lasting.
Researcher Pod: Scholarly Communication Using the Decentralized WebHerbert Van de Sompel
The presentation provides an overview of the motivation and direction of the Mellon-funded Researcher Pod project that investigates technical aspects of scholarly communication in a decentralized web setting.
Presentation for a workshop about persistent identifiers organized by the Royal Library of The Netherlands and DANS. Highlights the non-trivial commitments required of all parties involved in persistent identifier systems to actually keep links based on persistent identifiers ... err ... persistent.
Various FAIR criteria pertaining to machine interaction with scholarly artifacts can commonly be addressed by means of repository-wide affordances that are uniformly provided for all hosted artifacts rather than through artifact-specific interventions. If various repository platforms provide such affordances in an interoperable manner, devising tools - for both human and machine use - that leverage them becomes easier.
My involvement, over the years, in a range of interoperability efforts has brought the insight that two factors strongly influence adoption: addressing a burning issue and delivering a KISS solution to tackle it. Undoubtedly, FAIR and FAIR DOs are burning issues. FAIR Signposting <https://signposting.org/FAIR/> is an ad-hoc repository interoperability effort that squarely fits in this problem space and that purposely specifies a KISS solution, hoping to inspire wide adoption.
Registration / Certification Interoperability Architecture (overlay peer-review)Herbert Van de Sompel
Presentation for the COAR meeting on Overlay Peer-Review held at INRIA, Paris, France. It provides overall context regarding a scholarly communication system in which the core functions of scholarly communication (registration, certification, awareness, archiving) are implemented in a decoupled manner and whereby each function can simultaneously be fulfilled by different parties, potentially in different ways. It shows how notifications can be used to achieve loosely coupled, point-to-point interoperability in such an environment, zooming in on interoperability between registration and certification aka interoperability between repositories and overlay peer-review services.
Slides used for a keynote presentation at the VIVO 2019 Conference in Podgorica, Montenegro.
Abstract: The invitation to present a keynote at the VIVO Conference and the goal of the VIVO platform, as stated on the DuraSpace site, to create an integrated record of the scholarly work of an organisation reminded me of various efforts that I have been involved in over the past years that had similar goals. EgoSystem (2014) attempted to gather information about postdocs that had left the organisation, leaving little or no contact details behind. Autoload (2017), an operational service, discovers papers by organisational researchers in order to upload them in the institutional repository. myresearch.institute (2018), an experiment that is still in progress, discovers artefacts that researchers deposit in web productivity portals and subsequently archives them. More recently, I have been involved in thinking about the future of NARCIS, a portal that provides an overview of research productivity in The Netherlands. The approach taken in all these efforts share a characteristic motivated by a desire to devise scalable and sustainable solutions: let machines rather than humans do the work. In this talk, I will provide an overview of these efforts, their motivations, the challenges involved, and the nature of success (if any).
Presentation for PIDapalooza 2019, Dublin, Ireland.
The Scholarly Orphans project, funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, explores technical approaches aimed at capturing and archiving scholarly artifacts that researchers deposit in web productivity portals as a means to collaborate and communicate with their peers. These artifacts are not collected by other frameworks aimed at archiving the scholarly record (e.g., LOCKSS, Portico, Institutional Repositories) and are only incidentally captured by web archives. The project explores an institution-driven approach inspired by web archiving. To demonstrate the ongoing thinking, the project has devised an experimental automated pipeline that continuously discovers, captures, and archives artifacts. These are created by actual researchers who, for the purpose of the experiment, were virtually enlisted in a fictive research institution. A portal at myresearch.institute provides an overview of the artifacts that were discovered and provides access to archived versions stored in both an institutional and a cross-institutional archive. The set-up leverages a range of technologies that share a flavor of persistence: Memento, Memento Tracer, Robust Links, Signposting.
As a memento of my last week of working at LANL, I put together a slide deck that provides an overview of major efforts conducted during the time I was there.
Presentation given at EuropeanaTech 2018 in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Provides a summary of insights gained from working for about a decade on challenges related to temporal aspects of the web, persistence.
"Scholarly Communication: Deconstruct and Decentralize" was presented at the Fall 2017 Meeting of the Coalition for Networked Information. It explores working towards a Scholarly Commons by applying decentralized web ideas to scholarly communication.
Looks at hyperlinks from the perspective of a managed collection of resources for which link persistence/integrity is considered a quality of service concern. Distinguishes between links into other managed collections and to the web at large. Considers link rot and content drift.
This slide deck provides an overview of proposals to use HTTP Links as a means to address some long standing problems related to scholarly resources on the web.

These slides go with the paper "Reminiscing About 15 Years of Interoperability Efforts" which is available at http://dx.doi.org/10.1045/november2015-vandesompel
Slides were used for a presentation at the Fall 2015 Membership Meeting of the Coalition for Networked Information.
This presentation looks back at several efforts, conducted in the past fifteen years, aimed at establishing interoperability for web-based scholarly communication. It tries to characterize the perspectives/approaches taken by these efforts and, based upon that, proposes an HATEOS-based approach to interlink scholarly nodes on the web. This was first presented at the Research Data Alliance meeting in Paris, France, September 22 2015.
Extended version of slides presented at the "404/File Not Found" symposium held at Georgetown University on October 24 2014, see http://www.law.georgetown.edu/library/404/ . The presentation provides a brief overview of the link/reference rot problem and then discusses three complimentary strategies to combat it: Pro-actively capturing web resources that are linked from a seed collection; Referencing the captures by means of annotated links; Accessing the captures using Memento infrastructure.
This presentation introduces ResourceSync, a specification aimed to enable web-based synchronization of resources. The specification is the result of a collaboration between NISO and the Open Archives Initiative funded by the Sloan Foundation and JISC. The proposed resource synchronization approach is based on several existing specifications (e.g. Sitemaps, PubSubHubbub, well-known URI) and is aligned with common architectural principles (e.g. REST, follow your nose).
A 15 minute video version of these slides is available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASQ4jMYytsA
This presentation provides an overview of the Memento "Time Travel for the Web" framework that is aligned with the stable version of the Memento protocol, specified in RFC 7089.
The slides were used to accompany an overview of the outcomes of the ResourceSync project at the 2014 Spring Membership Meeting of the Coalition for Networked Information (CNI).
The launch of ResourceSync, a joint project of the National Information Standards Organization (NISO) and the Open Archives Initiative (OAI) funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, was motivated by the ubiquitous need to synchronize resources for applications in the realm of cultural heritage and research communication. After an initial problem definition and scoping phase, the project has designed, specified, and tested a framework for web-based synchronization that is based on SiteMaps, a protocol widely used by web servers to advertise the resources they make available to search engines for indexing. This choice allows repositories to address both search engine optimization and resource synchronization needs using the same technology.
The ResourceSync framework specifies various modular capabilities that a repository can support in order to allow third party systems to remain synchronized with its evolving resources. For example, a Resource List provides an inventory of resources whereas a Change List details resources that were created, deleted or updated during a given temporal interval. Support for capabilities can be combined in order to meet local or community requirements. The framework specifies capabilities that require a third party to recurrently poll for up-to-date information about a repositories’ resources but also publish/subscribe capabilities that keep third parties informed about changes through notifications, thereby significantly reducing synchronization latency.
Persistent Identifiers and the Web: The Need for an Unambiguous MappingHerbert Van de Sompel
Presentation given at the International Digital Curation Conference in San Francisco, February 26 2014. Highlights the lack of machine-actionability of persistent identifiers assigned to scholarly communication assets. Proposes an approach to address the issue that meets requirements that take into account the changing nature of web based research communication.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
