UK-related CERIF Activities

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

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? Currently ongoing: Mappings

Towards Ontologizing CERIF (needs communication) „CERIF Ontology“ in Semantic Web Technology


7


Funding-related extensions for Flemish Activities

Adding new Entities to the Model (ongoing)

Funding Programme (is there) to add Grant ? to add Call ?

Discussing about related Semantics (for example)

Is there a difference between Funding Programme (more general then call)Call (specified amount of time, topic)

Should we keep the entities separate at the model level

requires use cases requires testing
