Subject: [CNI-ANNOUNCE] Key Cyberinfrastructure Documents and more
Even though these documents have been out for a few days already, I
wanted to be sure that CNI-announce readers were aware of them, as
they are very important.
First, the NSF Office of Cyberinfrastructure has released version 7
of its Cyberinfrastructure Vision document, which establishes their
agenda for the next few years. While earlier versions of this
document have been circulated for public comment, this is the first
full version to be available. You can find this at
http://www.nsf.gov/od/oci/ci-v7.pdf
or linked from the main Office of Cyberinfrastructure page at
http://www.nsf.gov/dir/index.jsp?org=OCI
where you can also now find a set of pointers to many of the
NSF-sponsored cyberinfrastructure workshops that have taken place
over the last few years.
In addition, the American Council of Learned Societies Commission on
Cyberinfrastructure in the Humanities has released the final draft of
their report, which can be found linked from their page at:
http://www.acls.org/cyberinfrastructure/
This is a major revision of the earlier draft report that was
released last year (and discussed at the fall and spring CNI task
force meetings, among other venues.) (Disclosure: I serve as an
advisor to the Commission.)
In the UK, the Joint Information Systems Committee has released a
draft 2007-2009 strategy for comment. You can find the document, and
informaiton on how to submit comments, here:
http://www.jisc.ac.uk/draft_strategy0709.html
I'm not sure these are exactly beach reading, but I hope you find
them valuable.
