  • The Common European Research Information Format (CERIF) standard was developed in the late 1980s by the European Union. Since 2002 care and custody of CERIF has been handed by the EC to euroCRIS, a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to the promotion of Current Research Information System (CRIS). CERIF is neutral as to architecture, it maintains at instance level, a triple structure; the data model can be implemented as a relational, object-oriented, RDF/OWL XML database, or as an information retrieval (including Web) system. It was intended for use by CRIS systems to allow them to store and transfer CRIS data among databases and information systems. CERIF is currently adopted in national systems of eight European countries, widely used in others, and considered internationally. In the UK there are several ongoing publicly-funded projects promoting the utilization of CERIF for interoperation. The CERIF standard was applied in European Union funded projects such as IST World . and CISTRANA . The main purposes of CERIF are: To enable storage and interchange of information between CRISs. To enable information access to CRISs through the Internet, Web and Grid. To provide a standard data model, best practices and tools for the CRIS developer. CERIF benefits: the policy maker who needs to know what areas are currently being researched. the programme manager of a funding agency who administers the implementation of policies. the project manager of a university or government organisation who submits new project proposals. the SME looking for new wealth-creating and patentable opportunities. The latest CERIF release is published as "CERIF 2008 - 1.2" and structures: Base Entities Result Entities 2nd Level Entities Link Entities Multilingual Entities Semantic Layer For connecting the base, result and 2nd level entities, CERIF uses so-called Link Entities. A link entity always connects two entities by time-stamps and stores additional information about the established connection in the so-called "Semantic Layer", which is layered over the above syntactic structure and allows for multiple multilingual classifications.
  • Le Common European Research Information Format a été développé avec l'appui de la Commission européenne dans les deux grandes phases: 1987-1990 et 1997-1999. Il s'agit d'une norme recommandée par l’Union européenne à ses Etats membres. Depuis 2002, c’est EuroCRIS, organisation à un but non lucratif dédiée à la promotion des Current Research Information System encore appelés CRIS qui assure la maintenance et la gestion de ce standard. La plupart des états membres soutiennent publiquement des programmes de recherche. Il est connu de tous, que la coordination de la recherche et du développement conduit à la création de richesses et au progrès social. Dans le même temps, le financement public de la recherche et de l’innovation est un enjeu clé de cette coordination. Dans cette articulation, il est important pour les bailleurs de fonds de recueillir des éléments d’informations qui leurs permettent de renforcer leurs décisions de financement et d’orienter au besoin leur stratégie de recherche, d’où une gouvernance appropriée grâce à l’information mise à la disposition du public. De façon global, les Etats membres ont le même processus de pilotage et coordination de recherche: la planification stratégique, la publication du programme, appel à propositions; évaluation des propositions et l'attribution des projets, le suivi des résultats et d'exploitation des résultats du projet.
