Description

The FAIRCORE4EOSC report on standardisation and curation of software metadata and PIDs is an implementation overview and roadmap of the efforts achieved by infrastructures in the evolving European landscape of research software. The report explores cultural changes in the recognition of research software as a first class output as recommended in the EOSC SRIA (Directorate-General for Research and Innovation (European Commission) & EOSC Executive Board, 2022) and in the EOSC SIRS report (EOSC Executive Board & EOSC Secretariat, 2020). It outlines the critical role of software in scholarly communications and provides definitions for standardisation and curation, emphasizing the need for standardised practices and effective curation mechanisms within the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC).

This report, D6.1, includes a proposal of an operational roadmap towards adoption of the existing recommendations and concrete steps to strengthen the interoperability between infrastructures using PIDs and metadata. Illustrating existing mechanisms and additional implementation by the FAIRCORE4EOSC Work Package 6: Services and tools to archive, reference, describe and cite research software and demonstrated by the Task 4.3 participants, Metadata and PIDs for Software: Curation and Standardisation, led by Inria. FAIRCORE4EOSC aims to develop EOSC-Core components to enable a FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) Ecosystem by addressing gaps identified in the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA).
