“The NIH expects and supports the timely release and sharing of final research data from NIH-supported studies for use by other researchers.
“Starting with the October 1, 2003 receipt date, investigators submitting an NIH application seeking $500,000 or more in direct costs in any single year are expected to include a plan for data sharing or state why data sharing is not possible.”
Application Guide for NIH and Other PHS Agencies
“Investigators are expected to share with other researchers, at no more than incremental cost and within a reasonable time, the primary data, samples, physical collections and other supporting materials created or gathered in the course of work under NSF grants. Grantees* are expected to encourage and facilitate such sharing.”
* Grantee = Research University or similar
“Proposals must include a supplementary document of no more than two pages labeled “Data Management Plan””
including…
policies for access and sharing including provisions for appropriate protection of privacy, confidentiality, security, intellectual property, or other rights or requirements;

Data Paper
“a formal publication whose primary purpose is to expose and describe data, as opposed to analyze and draw conclusions from it.”

1. Organize peer-review, establish quality-control measures
2. Create citable entity
3. Establish cross-linking mechanisms with traditional papers, to enforce separation of concerns (methodology vs analysis)
4. Specify required documentation to make data re-usable, re-purposable
5. Apply standard interoperable legal license (CC0 or PDDL with normative attribution or CC-By with URI attribution)
6. Ensure archiving strategy in place
