FRIS
• Virtual environment of research information• The programme that is being set up in order to create this research
information space:• Accelerate the innovation value chain by efficient and fast access to research
information for all relevant stakeholders• Offer improved customer services (e-government)• Increase efficiency and effectiveness of the R&D policy

ProblemRepeatedly interpreting the meaning of different formats:• No reuse• No documentation• Trial & error• Repeating errors• No knowledge sharing

4
ProblemManually creating ad-hoc mappings between different formats• Inefficient• Not manageable• Not scalable• Increases legacy• High cost

A Fact
Project A recieves funding from the Research Communities programme of the FWO for a period of 4 years, starting on the 1st of May 2009.
The project budget for that period is 480.000 euro and the Research Communities program is the principal funding source.
For statistics and other purposes we use code 7013 to identify the FWO Research Communities programme

Project• Kick off 14/05/09• Scope
– HoGent datamodel for PURE 4.– Funding model– Geographical coverage– Validator business rules
• Partners– EWI– Collibra
• Deliverables – Adapted “Collibra Platform” with CERIF output– The models (syntax, semantics including business rules)– EWI collaborators trained– Target date 14/10/2009
• Usage of products– Drive ingest validator from the semantics– Provide generic base model with agreed semantics to stakeholders
