OSCARS Composability & AAI Workshop

17 Sept 2025, 13:00 → 19 Sept 2025, 18:00 Europe/Zurich

160/1-009 (CERN)

OSCARS brings together world-class European Research Infrastructures (RIs) in the ESFRI roadmap and beyond to foster the uptake of Open Science in Europe. Such RIs are part of the five Science Clusters (Humanities and Social Sciences, Life Sciences, Environmental Sciences, Photon and Neutron Science, Astronomy, Nuclear and Particle Physics), which have strived to make open data easily accessible to the users and the public, by providing FAIR data management policies and practices for enabling Open Science.

The participants of this workshop will jointly review their progress on the composability development and deployment. Additionally, they will explore initial ideas for upcoming engagement activities.

A dedicated workshop on Authentication and Authorisation Infrastructure with input from the AARC Project will take place on the 17th, before the main OSCARS workshop starting on the 18th. Please select the days that you plan to attend in the registration.

The timetable for the workshop is still tentative; the official programme will be published soon.

Wednesday 17 September

13:30 → 17:30 Authentication and Authorisation Infrastructure Workshop

13:30 Authentication and Authorisation Infrastructure Workshop

The AARC TREE project is organizing a workshop to engage with the eScience clusters to gather inputs to shape the Compendium of AARC Best practices and Recommendations deliverable.

During the workshop the AARC TREE team will report on the initial revision of the AARC Blueprint Architecture, its policy and interoperability framework as well as on the requirements collected by the AARC TREE team from the eScience community that drove the revision.

Feedback from the OSCARS community is solicited to understand their requirements, how they are met and what time of support they would like to receive from the AARC TREE.

Participants are welcome to provide input on strategies to address sustainability aspects for maintaining operational AAI solutions that align with the AARC BPA framework.
