The International Coalition on Science Gateways will hold a meeting at the
RDA Plenary in Montreal , Canada, on 18 September 2017. The International
Coalition on Science Gateways aims to provide an international forum for
the science gateways community, and this meeting will discuss the
Coalition’s short and long-term goals.
The International Coalition on Science Gateways’ vision is to provide an
international forum for the science gateways community to:
Provide leadership on future directions for science gateways
Facilitate awareness of international, regional and national developments
in science gateways
Identify and share best practice in the field
A Science Gateway (or Virtual Research Environment/Virtual Laboratory) is a
community-developed set of tools, applications, and data collections that
are integrated through a tailored web-based environment. As data
collections become both larger and more complex, the role of software
applications in working with the data also becomes more critical. Improving
access to data through environments like Science Gateways/Virtual
Laboratories/VREs is thus critical to reducing barriers to data
interoperability.
The International Coalition on Science Gateways works in collaboration with
the RDA Interest Group in Virtual Research Environments (VRE-IG) to bring
together organisations, forums and individuals with an interest in
international, regional, national, cross-institutional, domain-specific,
and interdisciplinary initiatives in science gateways.
More information and registration details for this (free) meeting are
available here.
