Session
Modern science uses a wide variety of instrumentation as a core part of the research cycle. globally, and persistently identifying instruments has significant benefits for research, such as reusability, interoperability and transparency of scientific outputs, and have also many use cases in operational, funding, and administrative aspects of research processes. This workshop concentrates on discussing technical aspects of how to persistently identify instruments and on the societal and administrative aspects of practically implementing instrument identification in research organisations.
The workshop builds on the outputs of the Persistent Identification of Instruments Working Group in the Research Data Alliance, including the development and ongoing maintenance of the PIDINST metadata schema, and the outputs and plans of the TDCC-NES FAIR4instruments workshop on the practical implementation of instrument identification in the Netherlands.
