Subject: [SIGMETRICS] Scientific Data Sharing/Trading


Dear all,
I am interested to read up on what is known about how researchers share scientific data.

 *   Under what conditions do researchers share scientific data freely, e.g., using a Creative Commons license?
 *   When do they 'trade' data for money, citations, etc. and how do they initiate and execute these transactions?
 *   When do they decide not to share?
 *   What 'marketplaces' for scientific data exchange exist today?
Pointers to relevant papers, reports, web sites would be much appreciated.
There might also be research that looks into the sharing/trading of resources, facilities, tools, space, students, etc. relevant for understanding how researchers share data.

Thank you all,
k
