Topics for today
• CRIS history: A view already given in Prague.
• Evolving Research Information Ecosystem
• Trends relevant to AVEDAS view
• What role we think CRIS may play over the next few years
• CONVERIS demo: At any other time!

What is the future of CRIS?
(A) No future: Needs covered by other systems
(B) A piece in the Puzzle.
(C) A central piece in the Puzzle.MERIL

Familiar trends…
• Increasingly interdisciplinary research, open innovation => Facilitate expert finding and collaboration, but also increasing demands on ensuring compliance with regulations.
• Increased use of social media => Integrated communication
• Reduced funding, increasing competition => better real-time reporting for (strategic decision-making) and process efficiency
• Everyone connected to everyone => More rapid change and increasing demands on flexibility
• Open Access, Evolving Ecosystem => Integration with OpenAire, ORCID, LOD, … extending use of standards (CERIF, CASRAI)

How to balance:
• unstructured vs. structured information?
• free communication vs. systematic processes?
• replacing vs. integrating?

CRIS for the next few years…
Is expected to be (B) => (C), i.e.:a highly interconnected, increasingly central piece in the Puzzle, across a growing spectrum of research information.

Hence, typical CRIS objectives stay for a few more years…

• Reuse of unstructured, making it structured & high quality
• Facilitate communication, ensuring efficient processes
• Increasing visibility, enabling decision-making

Examples of typical “future” projects
• University of Sunderland
• Sweden ScienceNet
• MERIL: Already presented by Valerie

University of Sunderland
• Integration via CERIF-XML for interoperability between internal systems: HR, Student records, Finance and Institutional Repository to CONVERIS
• CERIF experience on both sides• 2 months implementation• No significant overhead compared to non-CERIF integration• Internal systems equipped for the future
14© AVEDAS AG
Sweden ScienceNet
• All funders providing data in various structured formats• mapping and extensive manual effort required for each import and
update to Sweden ScienceNet• Other “data consumers” having the same issue of data handling
• Vinnova: First funder in Sweden to implement CERIF• Reduced effort for import by 50% (other 50% requires joint IDs)• Generic interface for Sweden ScienceNet and any other data consumer
• SSF and other funders now on the way
• Stockholm University: First institution to integrate with Sweden ScienceNet

Conclusions
• All systems and actors evolve in a very dynamic market
• Some extend coverage => more overlap, replace other systems
• Some focus coverage => increased integration needs
• Significant potential of ORCID, if being used
• Increasing take up and use of CERIF!
• CRIS continuously needs to be redefined!
