In a nutshell, we are building a system to capture the research information infrastructure: linking people, departments, grants, funders, articles, theses, books and data together. (Technical information: using RDF and a mix of published and homegrown ontologies, and using an objectstore to act as a serialised, archival base for the information. Evidence, context and provenance will be a strong focus.) -------- Forwarded Message -------- > From: Sally Rumsey <[log in to unmask]> > Subject: BRII job ad > OXFORD UNIVERSITY LIBRARY SERVICES, Systems and E-Research Service > (SERS) > > Building the Research Information Infrastructure (BRII) Project > > BRII Project Analyst > > Oxford > > Grade 7: Salary £27,466 - £33,780 p.a. > > Full time, fixed term to March 2010 > > > > ORA (Oxford University Research Archive) the repository for Oxford > research outputs and Oxford Medical Sciences Division Research > Database Service have joined forces to create an innovative solution > for research information management.
