Thanks God, a simple Summary
1. Research project assessment

Project assessment (1/2)
• Each year• All in one month• Only electronic submission• A personal workspace for each researcher• We know all about them
(219.144 registered users, with carriers and curricula)
• We have scientific production of all of them(3.333.615 publications)
• A catalogue of scientific journal titles(201.903 journals)
Project assessment (2/2)
>4.000 project proposals presented every year (56.172 research projects in the last 12 years)
>13.000 organizational units involved
>6.500 international experts for peer review
A ranking is calculated
Funds assignment
Monitoring the financial data during project life-cycle
Collect periodical reports and final statements
Summary
1. Research project assessment
2. National research assessment exercise
national research assessment
exercise (1/2)
• Covers from 3 to 5 years
• Only the best research products
• Bibliometric indicators
• Peer review
• Good ranking position means more funds and salary increase
• First exercise was successfully concluded in 2006
• 17.329 products were evaluated by 151 panelist, assisted by 6.661 international experts
• At least 2 blind reviews per product• Final ranking calculated by scientific area
and by structure
• A new (bigger!) exercise will start very soon

interoperability
Universities and Research Institutions can exchange data with the National Research Information System via:
web services
file upload/download
OAI-PMH (work in progress)
standardsResearchers’ curricula are in Europass
format. We are going to use the same format for University professors CVs soon.
We are working to provide research projects data according to the CERIF 2008 standard.
For publications metadata exchange we use many formats, but our main reference is MODS.

• Research results repository management (publications, patents, conference speeches, proceedings..)
• Research results assessment (publication, projects, research groups)
• Research assets management (research teams and groups, research units, laboratories, equipments, facilities, skills..)
• Dissemination and Technology transfer• Integration with national and istitutional repositories/systems
• Projects
• Results
• Assessment

What future for interoperability ?
standards are a feasible goalbut
standards come through adoptionso…
we need to build tangible services for the research community on
top of standardization !
