The workshop will be part of an effort to compile a report on strategies and guidelines for realising e-Research infrastructures. We will discuss the following questions:

  • How do you encourage and manage research collaboration in e-Research?
  • How do you manage e-Research projects and the relationship between the various stakeholders involved?
  • How can the relationship between emerging requirements and ongoing technological development be managed?
  • What are the appropriate tools and techniques to coordinate scientific endeavour?
  • How do we match the facilities of e-Research with particular scientific cultures?
  • What are the opportunities and restrictions associated with the commercial development of e-Infrastructures for research?
  • How do we promote and support sustainable use of e-Infrastructures for research?

People with experience in running e-Research endeavours and an interest in the socio-technical dimensions of such work.

If you are interested in taking part in the workshop, we would ask you to upload a **two-page position statement** when you apply online.

Position statements will be reviewed by the organisers to ensure highest quality contributions but also with a view to ensuring that the workshop covers a wide enough range of expertise and interests. Attendance will be limited to ca. 30 people and we will assume that attendees will have familiarised themselves with the position statements which will be circulated prior to the workshop.
