[ESIP-all] AGU Session on Agile Data Curation

[Joshua Young]

Dear Colleagues,

The conveners of  “Agile Data Curation...” would like to invite you to
submit a paper to this session at the 2015 Fall AGU meeting.  In
particular, we are looking for papers that would address the application of
‘agile’ techniques to data management which could include either:  1)
conceptual models that embody agile development values and principles in
the context of research data management, and 2) examples of intentional or
unintentional agile data curation that illustrate strategies that may be
employed in maximizing the current and future value of research.

As a reminder, the deadline for 2015 Fall AGU meeting submissions is
Wednesday, August 5th. If you have any questions please feel free to email
jwyoung at ucar.edu. Thanks and we look forward to your submissions!

Karl Benedict, Chris Lenhardt, and Josh Young

Session Title:

Agile Data Curation as a Strategy for Maximizing the Value of Research Data
While Minimizing the Cost of Research Data Management

https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm15/preliminaryview.cgi/Session8400
Session Description:

Software engineering has seen the adoption of agile development practices
that are based on the values and principles embodied in the Manifesto for
Agile Software Development <http://agilemanifesto.org/>. Agile methods in
software development have yielded responsive and user-engaged processes
that have produced improved products in less time compared to other
development models. These values and principles may be mapped into research
data management and curation, with the outcome of yielding more efficient
data management during research and lowering the effort (and cost) of
maximizing the value of research data products for unanticipated uses and
users. This session will bring together papers related to two aspects of
agile data curation: 1) conceptual models that embody agile development
values and principles in the context of research data management, and 2)
examples of intentional or unintentional agile data curation that
illustrate strategies that may be employed in maximizing the current and
future value of research.
