Together with the NFDI Task Force Tools for AAI and the FAIR Data Spaces project, we conducted a survey to assess the current state of AAI technologies in the NFDI. The results are now available and will be used to shape the future architecture of AAI for the „one NFDI”.

How can large data from high-performance measurement and computation (HPMC) become accessible for the research community? How can this data be processed or transferred? What are the possibilities for storage, repositories and metadata enrichment? DORIS has made a considerable progress in implementing the FAIR principles of HPMC data and passing the evolved knowledge to the community.

ing.grid is a peer-reviewed open access journal currently in development, that provides a forum for engineers of all disciplines concerned with data management to share and exchange their knowledge.

The German communities of Transport Research, Computer Science, Systems and Electrical Engineering met on March 3rd to discuss issues related to the collection, handling and subsequent use of research data in connection with the main topic of “Automated and Connected Mobility”.

NFDI4Ing will soon launch a survey on the topic of research data management (RDM) in the engineering sciences. One of the goals of the survey is to tailor the consortium’s services precisely to the needs of engineers. In order to obtain a detailed picture of the state of RDM in the heterogeneous engineering disciplines, we hope for numerous participants from all disciplines.

In a first meeting, leading scientists in the field of thermal engineering and process engineering met online to establish a NFDI4Ing community board.

You are interested in mechanical or production engineering and in topics related to data management? Then the Community Meeting of the CC-41 is the perfect place to inform yourself about (research) data management in this subject area!

In our task area (TA) BASE SERVICES, we work on providing subject and application-specific standardised metadata services and on supporting their integration into engineering workflows. Our first demonstrators and minimal viable products are ready for testing.

The task area (TA) BETTY envisions a future in which the engineering sciences produce validated, high-quality software that can be reused and extended. Betty wants to identify and provide the missing tools, teaching material and recommendations.

ALEX is all about bespoke, one-of-a-kind physical or virtual experiments. Robust data management before and after the experiment is essential to make research FAIR. Get to know the newest approaches currently under development in ALEX!
