Biodiversity Informatics Horizons 2013 (2)
#bih13 session on 'technical environment' starting now :)
2013-09-05 16:01:39@AlexHardisty just started the third day of #bih13
2013-09-05 16:04:20@BSC_CNS COMPSs on "Future computing platforms for biodiversity science" talk #bih13 http://t.co/9WHK9VuREy @EUBrazilOpenBio @europeangrid
2013-09-05 16:17:02@AlexHardisty from @bioveleu: an ecosystem of service providers supports specialisation and interoperability #BIH13
2013-09-05 16:21:59@AlexHardisty: Web services MUST be discoverable #bih13
2013-09-05 16:22:23Go to http://t.co/poScnF7BF5 to register or discover the biodiversity web service you have or need #BIH13
2013-09-05 16:30:44@CaroleAnneGoble empirical analysis shows that biodiversity informaticians focus their workflows steps on data retrieval #BIH13
2013-09-05 16:33:44Biodiversity informatics workflows are relatively heavy in data preparation says @CaroleAnneGoble in #bih13
2013-09-05 16:34:06#bih13 @CaroleAnneGoble sees workflows as paper factories
2013-09-05 16:38:00@CaroleAnneGoble: workflows must be preserved and future-proofed the same way biodiversity data have to. #bih13
2013-09-05 16:42:41@CaroleAnneGoble Workflows should be credited as if they are commodities #BIH13
2013-09-05 16:42:59@caroleanngoble notes the workflow should go to you, you shouldn't have to go to the workflow #BIH13
2013-09-05 16:45:18#bih13 workflow4ever, wf as commodities, credit, applications, customization, value chain, wf management system, life cycle, biocodecommons
2013-09-05 16:46:23#BIH13 - Credit for work is a consistent theme. Citation needed whether for workflow, tool or species concept. Don't lose the metadata!
2013-09-05 16:56:56@sdrycroft talking about the long-now of Scratchpads #bih13
2013-09-05 17:08:17.@BotanyRNG IMHO "credit" is better presented as "provenance", I care less about giving you credit than knowing where data came from #bih13
2013-09-05 17:09:49.@BotanyRNG But by tracking provenance I automatically give you credit (trick is to make my interests align with yours ) #bih13
2013-09-05 17:16:20This http://t.co/MekpCXedTs is my responses to the #BIH13 challenge (http://t.co/DK0V1YtAKC) @peterdesmet @scratchpads @baelterm @cydparr
2013-09-05 17:18:19@rdmpage I'm interested in what was done with the data as well as where it came from. Analysis and discussion drive science #BIH13
2013-09-05 17:18:58@BotanyRNG Sure, and provenance/citation gives you that. I see them as sides of same coin, but can sell them differently. #bih13
2013-09-05 17:22:54.@BotanyRNG Credit is an issue for providers, provenance is an issue for users, and users massively outnumber providers. #bih13
2013-09-05 17:23:39Has anyone at #bih13 mentioned Google's #knowledgegraph ? http://t.co/yeezxjBskW Isn't this the sort of thing we'd like to have for biodiv?
2013-09-05 17:24:53.@yodacomplex @botanyrng I'm saying always sell idea in terms of benefits to users (and make those benefits also help providers) #bih13
2013-09-05 17:29:28@rdmpage I'd use 'provenance' for specimens/samples (where/when) and 'citation' for opinions/papers (who/when) #BIH13
