Scope:

This half-a-day symposium is planned to be held in the afternoon of 3 March 2016 as a collocated event of the Research Data Alliance 7th Plenary in Tokyo, Japan. Organizers are three data-oriented committees under the Science Council of Japan. In recent years, we have found a significant growth of metadata systems and data alliances in various scientific domains, and significant efforts have been paid to assure multidisciplinary data usages, as being done by several groups of RDA, CODATA and WDS. In parallel to these efforts, it will be highly required to have a “foresight” beyond the establishment of interdisciplinary data systems or data alliances. For example, it is not clear yet what new research field will be opened by multidisciplinary data usage. New problems will be come out by extensive data usages, e.g. data policy, IPR (Intellectual Property Rights), long-term data preservation including security problem, etc. In this symposium we will establish a common understanding on the subjects given above.
