  • Examines challenges in part of the research value-chain:
  • provision of publicly funded rivalrous resources across borders
  • focus on demanding use cases
  • procurement considerations for public organisations
  • Insights: opportunities for the EOSC
  • Recommendations: what should be done

  • Shared Resources: Resources including

scientific outputs (local copies of data; applications, software, pipelines etc) and the storage and compute hosting platforms needed to deposit, share and process them

  • Includes rivalrous resources which are often

provided in the research environment by national publicly funded e-Infrastructures

Background - EOSC-hub Federating Core Proposals

SLIDE 7
  • EOSC-hub Federating Core Proposal

The unique value-add of the EOSC is its ability to provide quality assessment, combined with the ability for researchers to access and reuse data alongside Shared Resources through the same portal

  • Working Draft Community Position Paper on EOSC

EOSC needs to … create the financial vehicle to cover the costs of … provision and consumption of the Shared Resources beyond their originating communities. Coordinated provisioning and funding of the Federating Core is expected to bring economies of scale by aligning investments from member states with the compensation of marginal costs associated with cross-border usage of depletable resources and services

  • concerning provision and consumption of shared resources beyond their normal

constituencies

  • simulating negotiations for cross-border storage and compute services
  • to explore the opportunities to reach an agreement on transnational provision of

resources provided by publicly funded actors

Use Cases

  • Outsourcing the

computing platform required by research groups to analyse public ELIXIR datasets (Petabytes) and combine with private datasets

  • Suppliers: CESNET, CSC,

INFN, SURF

  • Data processing service

to the LOFAR community to generate science-ready data products from data stored in the distributed 'instrument' data archive (over 50PB)

  • Suppliers: CSC, INFN,

SURF

○ perceived value grows together with and thanks to the number of users that are using the platform.

Platform Approach

The Platform Design Toolkit approach

  • Models entities which need to or want to interact
  • Assists them by shaping a role for a platform to

increase value exchange and derive new ways of working

  • The platform provides the means for producers and

consumers to connect

  • Uber and Airbnb are examples
Platform Design Toolkit is provided by Boundaryless s.r.l. platformdesigntoolkit.com 15/09/2020

SLIDE 16
  • Process of acquiring research services to meet demand is non-standard

○ Standardised service catalogue unlikely to be able to bring supply and

demand together successfully

  • Research organisations seek long term technical partnership who can be

advice them on the best solutions/services available

  • Research organisations with large datasets looking for facilitating

exploitation of their asset across borders lack the computing/storage capabilities and capacity to support it

16

Findings

15/09/2020
slide-17
SLIDE 17
  • Public organisations are subject to the EC Procurement Directive
  • Public-to-public service provision usually rely on exemptions for which appropriate

structures are established at national level (e.g. in-house status)

  • Cost reimbursement across borders raise additional VAT and taxation

implications

  • Public funded institutions are more used to exchange money nationally (except for

research grants)

  • Different funding situations need to be considered
  • E.g. ELIXIR had needs and budget; ASTRON had needs but not budget

Research Support Providers as Primary Users

  • Research Support

Providers are, for example, support staff at Research Infrastructures, e-Infrastructures or universities (e.g. data stewards, computing engineers)

Concluding Remarks

EOSC has the opportunity to reduce barriers and enable frictionless, easy access to data and related services across geographic boundaries and disciplines so research communities can better connect with suppliers, users and funders We have identified 3 key recommendations

  • Establish a rich matchmaking capability
  • Recognise and support the crucial role of Research Support Providers
  • Accepting the cost of sustaining shared resources

We have adopted simulated negotiations and platform thinking as approaches to better explore how to better design the EOSC ecosystem and related platform
