Call for Contributions
This yearıs Digital Research conference (which builds on the earlier series of UK e-Science All Hands Meetings) is being held in St. Catherineıs College, Oxford, 10-12 September 2012.
Digital Research practice, tools and infrastructures have been embraced by researchers across all disciplines. In sciences and humanities, from big data analytics to citizen scholarship, we are harnessing our new digital capabilities ranging from the Web and new devices to High Performance Computing and the Cloud. While adoption and investment grow the community continues to innovate. The goal of Digital Research 2012 is to showcase todayıs digital research practice and innovation, and to set an influential agenda for tomorrow.
This year we are inviting contributions under the themes of Digital Research Innovation Showcase and Digital Research Futures, in addition to collocated workshops and events which are also encouraged to pursue these themes.
Call for Contributions: Digital Research Innovation Showcase
Digital Research 2012 will be showcasing the state of the art in Digital Research. We invite short papers presenting your Digital Research project, emphasising innovative Digital Research practice, tools, resources and outcomes. Please indicate your preferred presentation format: oral, poster, demo or video.
The submission format is an extended abstract of 3 pages (4 pages max including figures and references). All submissions will be peer-reviewed for their original contribution to the state of the art. Submissions for oral presentation may be accepted instead for poster presentation. All accepted abstracts will be made available in the online proceedings.
Call for Contributions: Digital Research Futures
This yearıs theme is the Future of Digital Research. We invite short papers, stories and videos giving your glimpse of ³Digital Research in the Future² In (and between) any disciplines. We encourage originality and forward- thinking, and there will be awards for the best-rated submissions.
These glimpses of our Digital Research Future may be based on your current research and should draw on your insights and vision. Short papers set out your view on the evolution of some aspect of the digital research ecosystem, interpreted broadly to include digital research applications, tools, practice, e-Infrastructure, research environment, interdisciplinary research (e.g. Digital Humanities, Social Informatics), digital curation, open data and software, automation, standards, long tail and citizen science, knowledge infrastructure, community capability, research communication, learning, training, design methods and ethics.
Stories and videos could address the above with alternative narratives like ³a day in the life² of a researcher or mock-up media coverage. Your submission should include a rationale for your vision, and include references, to assist with peer review. Creativity is definitely encouraged.
In all cases we invite submissions of a short paper of 3 pages (4 pages max including figures and references). All submissions will be peer-reviewed for their original contribution to the Digital Research agenda. Position papers and stories may be accepted either for oral or poster presentation at the conference. All accepted papers will be made available in the online proceedings.
Please submit your abstracts and short papers via EasyChair by 27th July
2012 (NOTE date change due to shifts in related deadlines) see the website http://digital-research.oerc.ox.ac.uk for further instructions and also for workshop and contact information. We look forward to seeing you at Digital Research 2012 in September.
