The SSHOC cluster project (Social Sciences and Humanities Open Cloud) is a contribution to the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). It particularly addresses the requirements of the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) research community. An important goal of the project is to deliver the SSH Open Marketplace (https://sshopencloud.eu/ssh-open-marketplace) as discovery portal and comprehensive information hub for the SSH research community comprising tools, services, training materials and other resources. Our involvement in the cluster project helps DARIAH communities to build one of the four pillars of the DARIAH Strategic Plan 2019–2026 by “building the Marketplace as a humanist-friendly component of the European Open Science Cloud”. Since the beginning of the SSHOC project (in January 2019), important steps have been achieved, like the definition of the system specification for the SSH Open Marketplace, and community needs were central concerns in this process. SSHOC follows an agile development approach with user feedback from the very beginning and feedback loops in-between. An alpha release of the portal was released in June 2020 and will be followed by the beta release of a fully-functional SSH Open Marketplace in December 2020. The operational version of the portal will be launched in December 2021. This DARIAH public demonstration is one in a series of events implementing a participatory-design approach and aims at encouraging and enabling valuable feedback for the refinement of the concept and development of the SSH Open Marketplace. The audience of the DARIAH Annual Event – humanities scholars and/or DARIAH Working Group members, NCCs, members of DARIAH Scientific Board – is a perfect multiplier for us to receive feedback from the Arts & Humanities research community at large.

Deliverable D7.1 of the ARIADNE Project, describing Trans-National Access of ISTI CNR.

Mapping digital humanities in Spain (1993-2019) This dataset has been extensively analysed in the following paper https://doi.org/10.3145/epi.2020.nov.01 and has also been used for the following poster https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4256689

The document gives and overview of funding opportunities related to European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF) for digital arts and humanities research, and provides concrete examples of successful actions that have been carried out in the last two programming periods (2007-2013 and 2014-2020). Moreover, this guide describes other funding schemes, notably Erasmus+, COST, Creative Europe, Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) that could be interesting for DARIAH partners.

This report addresses the ARIADNE project objectives and the framework of the impact evaluation, summarises the overall results, and gives recommendations for ARIADNE and other stakeholders with a focus on potential further advances.

CENDARI Archival Research Guide; This Archival Research Guide (ARG) aims to provide the user with a broad overview of the Archival Directory, a key component of the CENDARI Virtual Research Environment. The CENDARI Archival Directory consists of all available data in the AtoM application (“Access to Memory”) and data in the main repository, which is derived from international or national aggregators as well as national archives or other data providers. All data, whether manually inputted via the AtoM application or collected from institutions, form together the Archival Directory. In this guide the term “Archival Directory” refers only to the application AtoM and it hence will be used in this narrow sense. The term “Archival Directory AtoM” reinforces this definition. Unlike most of the other ARGs in CENDARI, this is not a thematic overview of a historical subject but instead a practical guide to the Archival Directory AtoM’s aims and how it was created and organised.This guide will present the methodology used by researchers associated with the CENDARI project when creating archival description and archival institution entries in CENDARI. It explains how material was selected to be entered into the Archival Directory AtoM, which institutions were considered as ‘hidden archives’ by the CENDARI team, what material was not included, the limitations of the project and the future of the Archival Directory AtoM. The CENDARI Archival Directory AtoM can be accessed both directly from the website and indirectly via the link provided in the Note-Taking Environment (NTE).

This Archival Research Guide is dedicated to different forms of women’s participation in the war effort and associationism during the First World War: these two strands include active participation of women in battles; war relief associations, peace movements and women’s employment in the war industry. Contemporary historiography has recognized the crucial role that women played in sustaining the war effort by replacing the labour ofmen who were engaged on the front. On the other hand, the role of women was crucial in those years for a variety of reasons and occupations: in fact, their commitment to organize in soldier’s relief and peace associations represents an important part of the historiography of the WW1. Moreover, the First World War was the first major belligerent event in which women could wear a military uniform: while this didn’t happen in every country, it was probably a first step toward the inclusion of women in sectors which once were exclusively occupied by men.

CENDARI Archival Research Guide; The subject “Science and Technology in the First World War” has so far been treated from the perspective on inventions and the development of new weapons, and often the focus has been on the topic of chemical warfare at the expense of other important dimensions. The approach of this Archival Research Guide, by contrast, comes from the social sciences and focuses on the establishment of relevant scientific, military and governmental bodies and on the personal networks established during the war. By examining these institutions and networks country by country, comparisons between them can be drawn, enabling further research with regard to the sociology of institutions. By pointing to the connections and channels of exchange between the nations and institutions under consideration, this approach opens up a transnational perspective and supports the paradoxal insight that transnational ties can dissolve national obstacles while simultaneously strengthening the nation-states themselves. On the individual level, the ARG takes the role of intellectuals into account, for whom scientific objectivity / neutrality and patriotic commitment seemed to have been no contradiction. It is remarkable that the First World War led to the establishment of several institutions aiming at funding science through the state, most notably in the case of France (CNRS), the U.S. (NACA/NASA) and Russia (KEPS).

D-Net Software Toolikt The D-NET Software Toolkit is a system that offers functionalities for the collection (“harvesting”), transformation, aggregation, and indexing of metadata records collected from an arbitrary number of data sources, complying with different protocols and data exchange formats. D-NET sets a workflow language, which developers can use to combine a variety of D-NET data management services, configure them to handle data according to given data models, and pipeline them into autonomic data processing workflows. This software package is a simplified version of the D-Net toolkit and consists of a web application with a minimal set of services for: Collection of metadata records in oai_dc format via OAI-PMH, FTP, local file system, HTTP. Transformation of the collected metadata records into an internal format named DMF (Driver Metadata Format) Indexing of DMF records in a Solr full-text index OAI-PMH export of aggregated metadata records in DMF and oai_dc formats. More formats can be added at runtime by providing a dedicated XSLT from DMF to the desired target format. Major changes in version 1.3.0 OAI Publisher: fixed cache management fixed oai consistency (post feed) workflow branch fixed deletion of content when workflow of data sources are deleted D-Net enabling services: using cache for subscription access support only one subscription registry Mongo based services (mdstore, oaistore, wf logging): using API of mongo-java-driver 3.2.2, removed usage of deprecated methods tracking the number of stored records to possibly highlight the collection of records with the same identifier GUI: enabling deletion of APIs via GUI enabling editing of metadata_identifier_path more info available in the datasource section removed map of data sources (TODO: adapt to the new google map API) Metadata collection: handling HTML illegal entities in collected XMLs Indexing: default query operator for "bag of words" queries set to AND instead of OR Workflow manager do not launch workflows that were scheduled for execution during a pause of the aggregation system ("prepare for shutdown") Official Web Site: http://www.d-net.research-infrastructures.eu Need support?
