Enhancing the GEON Cyberinfrastructure: Semantic Registration, Discovery, Mediation, and Workflows
نویسندگان
چکیده
Tools are needed to allow domain scientists to effectively harness cyberinfrastructure. The most visibile such tools for the scientist are (i) portals, and (ii) workflow development and execution environments. We briefly summarize some of the foundational work relating to enhancements of GEON cyberinfrastructure tools in terms of semantic data registration, and give references for further reading.

متن کاملConnecting GEON: Making sense of the myriad resources, researchers and concepts that comprise a geoscience cyberinfrastructure
Simply placing electronic geoscience resources such as datasets, methods, ontologies, workflows and articles in a digital library or cyberinfrastructure does not mean that they will be used successfully by other researchers or educators. It is also necessary to provide the means to locate potentially useful content, and to understand it. Without suitable provision for these needs, many useful r...
