UK-related CERIF Activities

CRISPool Project (St. Andrews) Workshop in Edinburgh (April 20th, 2010) Use-case=Exchanging RO Information (Person, OrgUnit,

ResPubl)

Ready4REF (will require another Meeting with UK Parties) Using CERIF for REF reporting (sustainable) Choose the model adequately for needs

Completeness of the CERIF model for R4R Is „Unit of Assessment“ a Classification? Is „Unit of Assessment“ an Organisation? Ongoing: Mappings

UK Councils (CERIF TG to decide upon Modelling) Using CERIF as an Exchange Format between Councils

projects should be classifiable into (say) 3 classifiers, with a % associated to each - enabling the money to be split accordingly

projects can be X% funded by OrgUnit A and y%funded by OrgUnitB

-> Request: Ontologizing CERIF „CERIF Ontology“ in Semantic Web Technology

EXRI Report publicly availableIncorporated in CERIF 2008 – 1.1
