“…In the first article, the author proposes a three-layered model with discovery metadata created from the CERIF contextual layer, while in the second article he presents a model for the use of CERIF that allows interoperability between CRIS instances by providing metadata describing publications with formal syntax and declared semantics (See Table V). It was precisely in Europe where the basis for CRIS [6] and the European standard for research information first appeared: CERIF in 1991 [5]; and it was in the United States that CRIS was founded at the National Institute of Food and Agriculture -USDA, almost at the same time as in the European Union. By focusing on a few institutions, research on CRIS topics shows areas of opportunity in terms of interinstitutional collaboration and exchanges of frameworks, methods, models, processes, and standards to enhance their operation.…”

“…Optimal storage, preservation, and exchange of this data are considered a keystone for the realization of Open Science and to address the need for immediate availability of metadata under the "FAIR" scheme: Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable [3]. CRIS is designed to manage information from heterogeneous data sources such as digital libraries, knowledge bases, and institutional repositories [4]; they also use standards such as CERIF (Common European Research Information Format) to manage and exchange data [5], [6], and have their foundations in the work of the Community Research and Development Information Service (CORDIS). A CRIS, therefore, is a comprehensive system of scientific information, management, and analysis of the productivity of research.…”

Research management in relation to Research and Development (R&D) has found a comprehensive and powerful tool in the Current Research Information System (CRIS). Publications on the subject are still emerging, so knowing what research has been done and its contributions presents an opportunity to build theoretical and reference frameworks, and to identify gaps and potential opportunities for future developments in information technology. Various articles covering these systems were analyzed with the objective of identifying the research areas, countries and institutions in which they were published, as well as their research approaches, contributions and topics covered. A systematic mapping of literature was carried out, which included 33 articles published on Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus, from 2007 to 2017. To ensure valid results, the evaluation guide for researchers was used during for the design and review phases of the systematic mapping studies, as well as the corresponding evaluation rubric; in addition, a strategy to define direct decision rules on how to classify an article based on the results of evaluations of multiple researchers was adopted. The findings show that the main research areas are Information Science & Library Science and Computer Science; the largest concentration of publications is found in Europe; research focuses on Evaluation Research; contributions are oriented to create processes and models, and to describe the applications and uses of CRIS. It is concluded that there are areas of opportunity for the development of research in this area, such as the expansion of the research areas in which it is used, the possibilities of collaboration, sharing and exchange at a global level, and the coverage towards integration issues with open access.

“…Research and Collaborations Information System, developed under the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences and the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (Ivanović et al, 2012), to enhance the visibility and retrieval of the country's scientific information. This mechanism has been integrating the network of science repositories in the Netherlands since June, 2008. From the standpoint of interoperability, CRIS are oriented toward a crucial goal, the management of homogeneous and heterogeneous data from institutional repositories and ontologies, or from external resources such as databases and libraries.…”

Purpose Information from Current Research Information Systems (CRIS) is stored in different formats, in platforms that are not compatible, or even in independent networks. It would be helpful to have a well-defined methodology to allow for management data processing from a single site, so as to take advantage of the capacity to link disperse data found in different systems, platforms, sources and/or formats. Based on functionalities and materials of the VLIR project, the purpose of this paper is to present a model that provides for interoperability by means of semantic alignment techniques and metadata crosswalks, and facilitates the fusion of information stored in diverse sources. Design/methodology/approach After reviewing the state of the art regarding the diverse mechanisms for achieving semantic interoperability, the paper analyzes the following: the specific coverage of the data sets (type of data, thematic coverage and geographic coverage); the technical specifications needed to retrieve and analyze a distribution of the data set (format, protocol, etc.); the conditions of re-utilization (copyright and licenses); and the “dimensions” included in the data set as well as the semantics of these dimensions (the syntax and the taxonomies of reference). The semantic interoperability framework here presented implements semantic alignment and metadata crosswalk to convert information from three different systems (ABCD, Moodle and DSpace) to integrate all the databases in a single RDF file. Findings The paper also includes an evaluation based on the comparison – by means of calculations of recall and precision – of the proposed model and identical consultations made on Open Archives Initiative and SQL, in order to estimate its efficiency. The results have been satisfactory enough, due to the fact that the semantic interoperability facilitates the exact retrieval of information. Originality/value The proposed model enhances management of the syntactic and semantic interoperability of the CRIS system designed. In a real setting of use it achieves very positive results.
