We still have some place left for our Free Hack Event around Managing
Research Data, on Thu 3rd and Friday 4th May in Manchester.
Why not have a look at the ideas that are being posted, here:

Why not add your own? Or read a blog post by Alex Ball, about hacking

This event aims to bring together software developers, project managers,
data librarians and experts particularly in the area of Managing
Research Data.
Hack days are a place for like minded people to get together, to have an
opportunity to discuss issues relevant in the area, experiment in a
focused way on prototyping systems/data and even hacking them together.
It also aims for people to explore current ways of doing things and how
they could be improved.
We are hoping that people will come together to form small teams/groups,
to discuss issues, work on paper/real prototypes, datasets, APIs.
The event will culminate in a series of presentations from the teams in
terms of the work they have carried out. We may even provide a prize to
the best ideas to develop them further.
Please visit the MRD Hack Days Ideas page,
http://devcsi.ukoln.ac.uk/upcoming-events/mrd-hack-days/mrd-hack-days-ideas/
to find out what people are interested in.
Current ideas include:
- How to quickly mint URIs for public data that will be permanently citable
- Assigning Unique IDs
- Dealing with real-time instrument data
- Translating OAIS into user stories in dealing and managing data sets.
- Using generic level DC metadata to describe data sets
- rifCS and datasets
- Using CERIF to manage datasets
- SWORD 2
- Identifiers: ORCID API, Datacite/DOIs (BL DataCite API)
- DMPOnline APIs.
- Object stores
- NoSQL
- OAuth
All participants will be able to share their own examples, expertise and
opinions via the lightning sessions, discussions and informal networking
opportunities.
The event (including accommodation) is free to all participants.
The event is organised by DevCSI and supported by JISC . Further
