IRIOS-2 = IRIOS++• IRIOS produced a proof of concept for:

– Gathering project data from the RCUK SSC– Importing it into the UNIS platform– CERIFying it– AND– Gathering data from the HEI partner IRs (ePrints, SURE)– Importing it into UNIS (and CERIFying it if need be)– THEN being able to– Link Publications to Projects

– It worked!– Others can use it… but is a bit ‘clunky’ and not fully featured!

IRIOS-2 = IRIOS++• IRIOS-2 will convert IRIOS PoC into a demonstrator

– Gathering more project data from the RCUK SSC– Importing it into the UNIS platform– CERIFying it [if needed]– AND– Gathering more data from the HEI partner IRs (ePrints, SURE)– Importing it into UNIS (and CERIFying it if need be)– THEN being able to– Link Publications to Projects [semi-automated?]– AND– Reconcile Project Finance Information– Connect to RMAS infrastructure– Run practical CERIF workshops

IRIOS-2: OverviewThe aims of the IRIOS-2 project are :i) Extend the IRIOS proof of concept demonstrator to better handle non-standard research outputs and multiple authors and roles ii) Enable HEIs to better collaborate by developing a CERIF B2B platform iii) Enable RCs and HEIs to reconcile grant status and finance information iv) Produce an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) connected cloud enabled version of IRIOS-2 such that it is RMAS compliantv) Run a series of practical CERIF technical and business process workshops

IRIOS-2 Plan

WP1: Requirements Analysis• Nov 2011 – Feb 2012• Establish the User Group, and analyse the existing IRIOS

platform and catalogue the extensions in functionality required to fully meet the needs of the group

• Produce the functional specification for the extension of the IRIOS platform

• D1.1 User requirements analysis – Nov 2011• D1.2 Functional specification – Jan 2011

WP2: IRIOS-2 System• Jan 2012 – Jun 2012• IRIOS platform Development of the IRIOS-2 extended

service

• D3.1 CERIF [v1.3] wrapper for RC interface – Aug 2012

WP4: Validation and Evaluation• May 2012 – Oct 2012• Use cases and testing plan – will be developed by the

User Group • Carry out the testing plan with defined use cases and

document the results

• D4.1 Use Cases and Testing Plan – Jun 2012• D4.2 Evaluation Report – Oct 2012

WP5: Dissemination• Nov 2011 – Oct 2012• Establish project website and blog (hosted at Sunderland) • Workshops • Attend Programme level meetings and events, and
