As part of Orbital, we’ve started to seriously consider how RDM (Research Data Management) fits into the whole range of University systems to support research information. In some contexts (usually research support/administration), we might use the term RIM (“Research Information Management”); in other, academic, contexts, we might talk about a VRE (“Virtual Research Environment”) – but I prefer to think of both as functions of the same set of systems.
Below is a first attempt to model various University research systems and what information might be shared/pass between them. This is a first draft only and will be discussed/developed over time – it’s here for comments!
It’s available to view on Lucidchart.
I pay a visit everyday a few sites and websites to read posts,
except this weblog gives feature based articles.
