- 8. European Open Science Cloud . A federated globally accessible environment where researchers, innovators, companies and citizens can publish, find and re-use each other´s data and tools for research, innovation and educational purposes. Imagine that this all operates under well defined and trusted conditions, supported by a sustainable and just value for money model. This is the environment that must be fostered in Europe and beyond to ensure that European research and innovation is able to contribute fully to knowledge creation, meet global challenges and fuel economic prosperity in Europe. This we believe encapsulates the concept of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC), and indeed such a federated European endeavour might be expressed as the European contribution to a global research data commons

Editor's Notes
- #6: Short history of European e-Infrastructure development: NB! Extensive animations so step on… In the years from 2000 and onwards a number of EC and National e-infrastructure project started with initially the CERN lead DataGrid as the largest effort. During the decade the EC e-infra projects were accompanied by national e-infrastructure and e-science projects. Around 2008 some consolidation efforts where made. The EGI Design Study had started in 2007 and a direction for a distributed computing infrastructure was pointed out. At the same time the provisioning of high-end HPC has evolved through DEISA projects and the first implementation phase of PRACE. So, where are we today: GEANT has been a mature underlying research network infrastructure with constantly increasing capability and deployment of new services to meet the most demanding needs of research. The provisioning of high-end HPC is established as a research infrastructure through PRACE. EGI was established as an answer to the need for a pan-European distributed computing environment. Primarily for high energy physics but has evolved to benefit also other areas research. EUDAT, though still a project, is the latest addition providing a collaborative data data infrastructure (CDI) for European research. So all together, from a large number of e-infrastructure initiatives a few very strong initiatives or brands has evolved. Time to ask what is the next step?
- #7: So, of course the total landscape is still very complicated, just to show a taste of it: We have the pan-European e-infra, today pretty well collaborating and connected with each other Then we Research infrastructures (ESFRI) typically collaborating through the EU cluster projects (and many more than displayed here) Then It has now been initiated a number of HPC Centres of Excellence (at least five more than shown here) with some links to e-infra Then there are national and regional e-infra, both thematic and general. Usually with some link to the European structures And we also have policy and best practice (de-facto standards) organisations that have a coordinating impact on the landscape In every country we have different types of national and local research infrastructures that can be closely connected or totally unrelated to the European structures Part of the movement for integration we have EU projects that address specific topics in common throughout a large portion of the research landscape (only one example mentioned here) A number of new thematic and general e-infrastructures initiated through H2020
- #13: An example is ResearchGate, a “free at point of use” service to share research papers and create contact with peers. The company had 8 Million users as of 2015. It has been criticized for its marketing methods including unsolicited mailing from registered users. No paid services available the business model appears to be advertising for recruiting of research professionals. Founded in 2008 in Boston but moved to Germany. Peter Thiel was an early investor and in 2013 the company raised a 35$M including investors like Bill Gates. Terms of use and conditions for termination show the sorts of risk
- #18: Some researchers do engage in sharing data but it is not widespread and some of the other aspects of the research system hold this back – as we see here – REF is something that many see as needing to change to support this – data is accepted in the REF in areas like the research environment but overall it weighted towards journal article.
- #19: 2011 announced, roadmaps by 2012 – in place from 1 May 2015. @ 1st some anxiety, now helped to get the issue on the VCs table as well as Unis are wanting to embrace the agenda and the need to create and support modern research environments. Looking at other disciplines not just engineering and physical sciences.
- #20: We developed this architecture – drawing on the work of prior Jisc projects and also Stuart Lewis at UoE and John Lewis at U of Sheffield. Used this as a tool to consult to identify what areas would be prime to develop together. Go through sections -
