Description
This presentation will briefly examine the changing landscape of e-research and
data-intensive science, together with associated trends in scholarly communications.
In this context the eBank UK project will be described, which is seeking to enable
open access to research data generated from an e-Science application, and to build
links from e-research outputs through to e-learning materials. The role of digital
repositories and OAI-based aggregator services in facilitating the linking of
data-sets from Grid-enabled research applications to e-prints through to
peer-reviewed articles, as resources in portals and Learning Management Systems, will
be assessed. Recent developments from the eBank UK project will be presented with
discussion about integration in research and learning workflows and the challenge of
assuring long-term access to open data archives.
