in the context of developing world class research infrastructures

I propose to think together about
logic and logistics in the context of research and education
strategic relevance of research infrastructures
e-infrastructures: moving, processing and managing data
reading and processing
coherent strategies and opportunities to implement them

logic, logistics, science and education
from Wikipedia
Logic(from the Ancient Greek: , logike) is the use or
study of valid reasoning in some activity
Logisticsis the management of the flow of goods between thepoint of origin and the point of consumption in order to meetsome requirements, for example, of customers or corporations,
from Greek logistiks skilled in calculation, rational,

libraries: research and education infrastructures
Libraries have been a major, if not the main researchinfrastructure of academic institutions
Libraries were able to collect a large segment of the worldsknowledge and make it accessible to researchers andstudents
Libraries estates were established at the heart of the campus toperform their organizational function for the circulation of
knowledgefuture?... a new sort archiving time-space relativity anecessary (painful) transition

Research Infrastructures
Men of science [] could formerly work in isolationas writers still can.
Cavendish and Faraday and Mendel depend hardly atall upon institutions and Darwin only in so far as thegovernment enabled him to share the voyage of theBeagle.
But this isolation is a thing of the past.
Most research requires expensive apparatus [].Without facilities provided by a government or auniversity, few men can achieve much in modernscience.
from Bertrand Russell in BBC Reith Lectures,1949

data has been and remains key to science
Need for "expensive apparatus" is something that modernscience intensified (need for more powerful telescopes, light
sources, research boats, geological probes etc)
Intrinsic to the ambition that European researchers remain atthe vanguard of scientific discovery
But there is something about research data:
information opens new worlds for science

research logic machines
Research Data collected at observation or experimentationphase were registered in the scientists notebooks, whichused to be paper books
Now research data is stored in digital form. Easier to beprocessed by "logic machines" programmed with complexmodels able to dig into the data
Logic machines are made of human scientific knowledgeand creativity, softwareand the underlying hardware
Scientist notebooks can now be linkedto a huge amount ofother data resources (including scientific papers), computerswith unprecedented capacity, eventually connected to globalnetworks

Europe riding the research data wave
Vision: "data e-infrastructure thatsupports seamless access, use, re-use,and trust of data.
In a sense, the physical and technicalinfrastructure becomes invisible and thedata themselves become theinfrastructure a valuable asset on whichscience, technology, the economy and
society can advance". The High Level Expert Group onScientific Data presented Ridingthe Wave in October 2010
Russell's quote could be extended:
without data and computing infrastructures few men
can achieve much in 21

who is involved?
data generators
research projects, big research infrastructure,installations or medium size laboratories,simulation centres, surveys or individual
researchers
discipline-specific data services
providing data and workflows as a service
generic common data services
computing centres, libraries, publishers
researchers as users
using (and producing) data for science andengineering
and research funders
community driven data infrastructure, includingESFRI, ESFRI clusters and others

issues to be addressed (policy framework)
Are publically funded research data a public good?
How do we ensure preservationand access?
How to we make data discoverableand exchangeable?
How to ensure integrityand reliabilityof data?
How do we ensure appropriate recognition?
How do we manage intellectual property?
How do we deal with privacyin the research context?
How do work the long term funding and cost/benefit?
How to work at European and globallevels?
How to foster cooperation with developing countries?
etc

issues to be addressed (e-infrastructure)
The EC in coordination with EU Member States is looking afterresearch data as an infrastructure
As a valuable and a strategic resource, research data opens atleast three key issues to be addressed(*):
Howdata can be networked
How to envision and set up data governance on a globalscale
How the EU can play a leading role in helping start andsteer this global trend

Research Data Alliance: a funder perspective
Societal challenges of our time transcend borders
Data and computing intensive science is made of globalcollaborations
Research data are global like the web
The European Commission has been supporting the set-up ofthe Research Data Alliance (RDA) to enable data exchangeon a global scale
The initial phase of RDA has been supported by thecollaboration between the European Commission, the USNational Science Foundation and National Institute of Standardsand Technology and the Australian Ministry of Research
Extending to more countries and funding agencies

Final remarks
Data e-Infrastructures increase scope, depth and economiesof scale of the scientific enterprise
Horizon 2020 provides tools and opportunities addressingdata and computing e-infrastructures
If taken with appropriate resources and critical mass, canproject Europe into the new world of data driven science
The objective is to combine the expertise of scientific
communities with the expertise of ICT communities capable ofexploring the limits of high bandwidth communication, high-performance computing, open scientific software and virtualresearch environments
