How to improve research data management: The case of sciebo (science box)

Abstract

The digitalization of research processes has led to a vast amount of data. Since third-party funding institutions progressively set standards and requirements regarding the handling of such data, research data management has become important in the context of international research collaboration projects. Simultaneously, adequate collaboration systems are needed to support scientists in this context. In this paper we discuss existing standards for research data management in the context of third-party funding and how cloud technology could support the fulfillment of existing provisions.
