• Devel­op­ment of a Data Access Com­mit­tee 

TU Delft Data Stew­ard from the fac­ul­ty of Elec­tri­cal Engi­neer­ing Math­e­mat­ics and Com­put­er Sci­ence (EEMCS), San­tosh Ilam­paruthi, has devel­oped a Data Access Com­mit­tee to con­trol access to data pub­lished under ‘restrict­ed access’ in the 4TU.ResearchData repos­i­to­ry. 

San­tosh pre­sent­ed his pilot ini­tia­tive dur­ing a Dutch Tech­cen­tre for Life Sci­ences Data Stew­ard Inter­est group meet­ing on 8th March.

• Soft­ware pub­lish­ing made eas­i­er: An inte­gra­tion between 4TU.Research Data and Git­Lab

Soft­ware devel­op­ment work is cur­rent­ly under­way to inte­grate the 4TU.ResearchData repos­i­to­ry with Git­Lab, an open-source DevOps tool used for col­lab­o­ra­tive and trans­par­ent work­ing among research groups.
