Virtual research environment programme : JISC
<http://www.jisc.ac.uk/whatwedo/programmes/vre.aspx>
With delight I digested an article (unfortunately in German) sent to me by
a colleague who is Librarian. The topic are so called "Virtual research
environments - VREs" see also
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_research_environment
This topic suits very well to the first phase of our project addressing
"everything that helps young researchers". In part the issue is addressed
by the platform for information retrieval and management
www.recherchieren-im-internet.ch to be translated in Russian soon. Note
however also the strong focus of VREs on collaboration and coordination
using Web 2.0 tools (Blogs, Wikis, Project Management platforms like
Teamlab/ Zoho/ Basecamp etc). So exactly the tools we looked at in the
last weeks.
Related to information retrieval for resachers note also the trend towards
"discovery tools" like eg http://konstanz.summon.serialssolutions.com/en/
You put your topic in the the "search slot" and get most of existing
scientific articles, books out. Although this discovery tools are
mushrooming a fundamental problem remains - as user you usually have no
clue which databases etc the tools themselves use. Also you have no clue
which algorithm is used for ranking the results. However, it could also be
argued that this is not really a problem - meanwhile it seems impossible
to track all of the literature published even on a very small area of
research. Maybe we have to say goodbye to the idea that we manage to deal
with "all" literature even if we focus only on a small research topic ...

re:publica 2012
<http://re-publica.de/12/en/>
re:publica started as a small meeting of Bloggers (people that write
blogs) in 2007 and became, as far as I know, the biggest conference on all
kind of internet-issues in Germany.
Eu Commissioner Neelie Kroes attended and informed that 41% of Italian
citizens still have no experience with the internet (source
http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/re-publica-Res-gestae-stationae-1568843.html).
I am wondering what the figures in Eastern Europe are.
In any case it can be seen that the question how internet (with it
ubiquitous computing i.e. "always online" as realised with the smartphone
boom) effects our societies is increasingly on the (research) agenda.
Christian
In the article quoted above is stated that WLAN did not work for some time
resulting in huge confusion of the participants. They just were cut off.
Interestingly it seems not too many people had prepared a fall back
solution. Lessons Learned - when applied in teaching make sure you still
have a piece of chalk in the pocket...
