In “Visualizing Research Data Records for their Better Management”, they present a UML2-based method of recording associations between research data records, so that the provenance, context and relative importance of the various records may be better understood by anyone not immediately familiar with the research. This paper relates to work carried out by the JISC-funded ERIM Project.

The paper, Data Management Planning in Engineering Design and Manufacturing Research by Mansur Darlington, Alex Ball, Tom Howard, Chris McMahon and Steve Culley, will explain how the project characterised the nature of engineering research data and developed a modelling technique for visualising its context.

The ERIM Project is a JISC-funded collaboration between the Innovative Design and Manufacturing Research Centre at the University of Bath, and UKOLN in its capacity as part of the UK Digital Curation Centre.
