Synchronisation Force 2nd Workshop: Persistent identifiers

Building on the successful Synchronisation Force workshop 2022, the 2023 edition of the Synchronisation Force workshop aimed to discuss common challenges and priorities related to turning the FAIR principles into practice. The workshop took place as a series of seven virtual sessions between 2 November 2023 and 8 February 2024, with the five core sessions between 27 November and 7 December 2023.

Topic Session 3: Thursday, November 30, 10.30-12.00 CET: Persistent identifiers

The goal of this session was to provide input for the PID Policy assessment regarding the more qualitative factors, especially those related to trust and sustainability. The session began with short presentations of the PID Compliance Assessment Tool done in FAIRCORE4EOSC and the integrated PID use cases in FAIR-IMPACT.  Representatives of these use cases, PIDs in data production workflows, PIDs in complex data citation and PIDs and sensitive data, reflected on the relevant PID solutions and requirements and identify gaps. They also described how they evaluate different PID services and systems.
