AGORRA is a global observatory of responsible research assessment that aims to generate comparative data, evidence and analysis to support and accelerate the transformation across national assessment systems.
Developing metrics, practices, and software for open source projects in community health; one goal is to identify all contributions made in this sphere and the organizations and individuals that make them; another to improve the transparency and actionability of open source tools.
Tracking and evaluating the prevalence of members from different groups in open science initiatives; outputs produced by group members; participation across disciplines and areas; citation bias in different areas; social dynamics of OS systems, e.g., role of hierarchy; and barriers to accessing digital collections.
Crossref is an official digital object identifier (DOI) Registration Agency of the International DOI Foundation. It is run by the Publishers International Linking Association Inc. (PILA)[2] and was launched in early 2000 as a cooperative effort among publishers to enable persistent cross-publisher citation linking in online academic journals.
This blogpost provides an overview of the specific ways that Crossref (along with organizations and initiatives like DataCite, ORCID, and ROR) helps U.S. federal agencies (and any other funder) meet critical aspects of the United States Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) Nelson Memo’s recommendations.
The Data Citation Corpus is a trusted central aggregate of all data citations to further the understanding of data usage and advance meaningful data metrics.
Aiming to pilot a multi-team research initiative that utilizes many of the ICOR solutions to push the boundaries of open collaborative science. Starting with a traditionally funded project, additional support from progressive funders will permit tracking incremental costs, practices, and tools of “flipping to open.”
GraspOS aims to develop, assess and operate an open and trusted federated infrastructure for next generation research metrics and indicators, offering data, tools, services and guidance to further extend the reach and influence of open science.
