Enabling Social Networking for Research: An Ontological Framework

Explore the ontology supporting e-Research within a social networking framework, focusing on managing research entities as encapsulated Research Objects. Align with established e-Research ontologies such as SWAN and evolve the framework to better support Research Objects, enhancing myExperiment's management capabilities.

  1. An ontology for e-Research David De Roure dder@ecs.soton.ac.uk David R Newman drn@ecs.soton.ac.uk Sean Bechhofer sean.bechhofer@manchester.ac.uk SWASD Workshop 26 October 2009

  2. Overview • What is myExperiment? • Designing an ontology for myExperiment • What are Research Objects (ROs)? • How does this fit into Scientific Discourse? • What’s Next?

  3. myExperiment: A Social VRE • Manage & Share Research Objects • Support a Social Model • Provide an Open Extensible Environment • Provide a Platform to Action Research

  4. The myExperiment Model

  5. Understanding the Model

  6. The “Base” Module

  7. Simple Network Access Rights Management (SNARM)

  8. Ontology Design

  9. SPARQL Endpoint http://rdf.myexperiment.org/sparql

  10. Research Objects in myExperiment • Workflows • Experiments • Packs

  11. Making Better Packs

  12. Building Research ObjectsUsing OAI-ORE

  13. What is in a Research Object? Sharing Analysis Usage Curation Workflow Paper Provenance Lifecycle Scientific Discourse Dataset Plan

  14. Research Object Architecture SWAN Ontology OBI Ontology Life Science Entities Gene Ontology Scientific Discourse OBI Research Object Domain Schema (RODS) Obesity e-Lab Taverna Shared Genomics SysMo Research Object Upper Model (ROUM) OAI-ORE

  15. Conclusions and Future Work • An ontology to support e-Research within Social Networking framework • An overview for the management of research entities in a encapsulated manner as Research Objects • Align with other e-Research ontologies (e.g. SWAN) • Evolve the ontology to better support Research Objects • Enabling myExperiment as a whole to manage them
