Decentralized research data management: introducing SoVisu+

This research proposes SoVisu+, a new system for managing research data in a decentralized way, building upon the foundation laid by the CRISalid consortium, a community-driven approach to research information management. Traditional, centralized systems have issues like fragmented data, unchecked and outdated information. SoVisu+ tackles these problems by giving researchers more control over their data and fostering collaboration to build a shared knowledge graph. Researchers benefit from features like self-archiving accompaniment, AI driven helpers and real-time profile views, while institutions gain access to more reliable and comprehensive data. SoVisu+ expects to employ cutting-edge technologies like Solid Pods and Linked Data to streamline data management and improve research evaluation practices. Overall, SoVisu+ aims to create a more transparent and collaborative research ecosystem that ultimately accelerates scientific progress.
