No. of bitstreams: 1 arquvo total.pdf: 18917608 bytes, checksum: fcfcd686ecacb39c53f8f45267048264 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-11-10 / This study deals with an innovative theme regarding the scenario of contemporary science. This perspective presents a new spectrum related to open science and changes that occur in current scientific practices. These practices are being improved and present new meanings, towards the new dynamics related to scientific outcomes and publishing. The Fourth Scientific Paradigm leads to a science that is based on intensive use of scientific information through the practices of the emerging model called e-Science. This type of science reflects a collaborative scientific environment that considers sharing, convergence, connectivity, interactivity, use and reuse of scientific data. This environment is based on the assumptions of a more open science and emerging models. In this context, the data life cycle model is adopted in order to drive and support scientific data management. Thus, this thesis constitutes a multidimensional and multidisciplinary study that relies on the confluence between Information Science and Law Sciences and its intersections with Economy and Technology. Theoretically, the study is supported by Commons Theory and Creative Economy; considering current intellectual property regulations and legislations as well as international guidelines for the new dynamics of e-Science. The core argument of this thesis is that in e-Science authority is collaborative practice; promoted by authorship rewards. The study object of the research is centered on authorship of scientific data considered as an intellectual asset. The work aims to elaborate standards that promote reward towards collaborative authority in e-Science. The research is predominantly qualitative. Bardin´s content analysis was used for categorizing, coding and performing inferences. The research also relied on the six dimensions (epistemological, theoretical, technical, morphological, political and ethical) according to study of Bufrem that guided the development of the chapters, content analysis and the conceptual model. The NVivo software was used for categorization, codification and corpus analysis. The multidimensional view and thematic connections resulted in five categories and thirteen subcategories that helped achieve the objective and indicate the standards of the proposed model for the representation of authorship in e-Science. It concludes that in the context of e- Science, authority is collaborative and ensured by copyright rewards through attribution, citation and accountability. Authorship attribution and citation are usual procedures, but in contemporary practice the responsibility is assigned to each collaborator proportionally. Thus, the thesis is confirmed and is represented by the conceptual model of collaborative authority in e-Science. The model is composed of multi-dimensional patterns that represent the scenario of collaborative open science that focuses on sharing, accessibility; oriented towards to the use and reuse of scientific data. Finally, each standard model represents guiding axioms that will help authors, researchers, curators, librarians, stakeholders, academic institutions, scientific and development agencies to conduct and share scientific data management projects in the context of e–Science to minimally guarantee authorship behalf of all the parties involved. / apresenta um novo espectro de uma ciência aberta com mudanças nas práticas científicas vigentes. Essas práticas estão sendo aprimoradas, ressignificadas e reconduzidas para as novas dinâmicas no fazer e publicar a pesquisa científica. O quarto paradigma científico conduz essa ciência que é baseada no uso intensivo de dados científicos através das práticas do modelo emergente da e-Science. A e-Science reflete um ambiente científico de colaboração, compartilhamento, convergência, conectividade, interatividade, uso e reuso de dados científicos. Esse ambiente constitui os pressupostos da ciência aberta e do modelo emergente. O ciclo de vida dos dados é adotado para conduzir e apoiar o gerenciamento de dados científicos. Dessa forma, a tese traz um estudo multidimensional e multidisciplinar através da confluência entre a Ciência da Informação e as Ciências Jurídicas e suas interseções com a Economia e Tecnologia. Teoricamente, o estudo apoia-se na vertente do commons preconizado pela Teoria do Commons e Economia Criativa, nas regulações e legislações da Propriedade Intelectual vigentes e em diretrizes internacionais para as novas dinâmicas da e- Science. O argumento de tese propõe que na e-Science a autoralidade é colaborativa e promovida pela recompensa autoral. O objeto de estudo está centrado na autoralidade dos dados científicos como bens intelectuais e o objetivo geral busca elaborar padrões que promovam a recompensa autoral na e-Science. A pesquisa é predominantemente qualitativa e adotou a análise de conteúdo de Bardin para a categorização, codificação e inferências do corpus de análise. Foi substanciada pelas seis dimensões (epistemológica, teórica, técnica, morfológica, política e ética) do estudo de Bufrem. Tal estudo foi norteador para o desenvolvimento dos capítulos, análise de conteúdo e constituição do modelo conceitual. Utilizou-se para a categorização e codificação do corpus de análise o software NVivo. A visão multidimensional e conexões temáticas resultaram em cinco categorias e treze subcategorias que ajudaram a alcançar o objetivo e constituir os padrões do modelo proposto para a representação da autoralidade na e-Science. Concluiu-se que a autoralidade no contexto da e- Science é colaborativa. A autoralidade colaborativa é garantida mediante a recompensa autoral através da atribuição, citação e responsabilização. A atribuição e citação são procedimentos usuais, contudo nas práticas contemporâneas a responsabilidade é atribuída a cada colaborador na proporcionalidade de sua participação. Assim, a tese se confirmou e está representada pelo modelo conceitual de autoralidade colaborativa na e-Science. O modelo é composto por padrões multidimensionais que representam o cenário da ciência aberta colaborativa, compartilhada e acessível orientada ao uso e reuso dos dados científicos. Por fim, cada padrão do modelo constitui-se em axiomas norteadores que auxiliarão autores, pesquisadores, curadores, bibliotecários e demais colaboradores, bem como instituições acadêmicas, científicas e agências de fomento a conduzirem projetos de compartilhamento e gerenciamento de dados científicos no contexto da e-Science com garantia mínima à autoralidade de todos os envolvidos.

Adotamos a noção de cultura epistêmica para operacionalizar nossa análise sobre estratégias para configuração de objetos, tecnologias e sujeitos epistêmicos por sistemas de produção de conhecimento que, por sua vez, criam efeitos de verdade. Para tal, nos inspiramos nas etnografias de laboratório e na abordagem das “três tecnologias” de Shapin e Shaffer (1985) para explicar como os filósofos naturais do século XVII construíram a noção de fato científico (matter of fact) como uma “variedade de conhecimento” tão sólida que se tornou sinônimo de ciência. De modo análogo, procuramos compreender como os modos de ciência emergentes pretendem legitimar novas maneiras de produzir conhecimento e disputar a própria noção de ciência. No movimento contemporâneo da Ciência Aberta, abordamos o open notebook science, tal como proposto em 2006 pelo professor e pesquisador em Química Jean-Claude Bradley como “uma maneira de fazer ciência na qual – da melhor maneira possível – você torna toda a sua pesquisa livre e acessível ao público em tempo real” (BRADLEY, set 2010). Adentramos seu “laboratório aberto” através de uma pesquisa documental que identificou o caderno aberto como principal elemento de um complexo ecossistema de colaboração aberta. Articulada com tecnologias sociais e materiais, esta tecnologia literária pretende substituir uma ciência baseada na confiança por outra fundamentada na transparência e na proveniência dos dados. Sua cultura epistêmica não impõe a obtenção de um fato científico como condição sine qua non para a comunicação de conhecimento novo, mas valoriza, sobretudo, o registro adequado da prática experimental seja qual for seu resultado – o que chamamos de matter of proof pela ênfase na documentação. Já na Ciência Comum (LAFUENTE, ESTALELLA, 2015), abordamos o caderno aberto de laboratório cidadão (CALC) prototipado por Antonio Lafuente e práticas de documentação de pesquisadoras-mediadoras do Medialab Prado, instituição pública madrilenha se autodenomina “laboratório cidadão”. Aqui, a crítica à noção de fato científico dialoga com o composicionismo latouriano ao compreendê-lo como um (importante) subconjunto da realidade que, no entanto, não deve se sobrepor aos debates políticos, mas conectar-se às “questões de interesse” (matter of concern). Nesta perspectiva, a modernização epistêmica fomentaria um “terceiro setor do conhecimento” que disputaria a governança antecipatória de assuntos tecnocientíficos (LAFUENTE, 2007). Nossa observação participante identificou que as práticas atuais de documentação tendem a reproduzir a lógica do campo da produção cultural que fomenta novos imaginários políticos, mas não inicia o ciclo de acumulação de conhecimento que o transformaria os laboratórios cidadãos em centros de cálculo (LATOUR, 2000). Os promotores de atividades tendem a reduzir a comunicação à divulgação de atividades para atrair participantes em potencial ou a prestação de contas, comprovando a realização de atividades. / We describe and analyze new epistemic cultures (KNORR-CETINA, 1999) that are being engendered by two emerging modes of science - Open Science and Common Science - that, despite numerous differences, converge on two aspects: the critique of scientific fact and their strategy of transforming laboratory notebooks into their main literary technology. We have adopted the notion of epistemic culture to operationalise our analysis of knowledge production systems strategies to configurate technologies, epistemic objects and subjects that, in turn, create effects of truth. To do so, we are inspired by laboratory ethnographies and Shapin and Shaffer's (1985) "three technologies" approach elaborated to explain how natural philosophers of the seventeenth century constructed the notion of scientific fact (matter of fact) so solid that it became synonym of science. Similarly, we aimed to understand how emerging modes of science seek to legitimize new ways of producing knowledge and disputing the very notion of science. In the contemporary Open Science movement, we approach open notebook science, proposed in 2006 by professor and researcher in Chemistry Jean-Claude Bradley as "a way of doing science in which - in the best possible way - you make all your research free and accessible to the public in real time" (BRADLEY, Sep 2010). We entered his "open laboratory" through documentary research that identified the open notebook as the main element of a complex ecosystem of open collaboration. Articulated with new social and material technologies, this literary technology aims to replace a science based on trust with one based on transparency and data provenance. Its epistemic culture does not impose a scientific fact as a sine qua non condition for knowledge communication, but values, above all, the adequate record of experimental practice whatever its outcome is - an epistemic culture that we have named a "matter of proof", given its emphasis on documentation. In Common Science (LAFUENTE, ESTALELLA, 2015), we investigated the open notebook of citizens' laboratory (CALC in spanish) prototyped by Antonio Lafuente and documentation practices of mediator- researchers at Medialab Prado, a public institution in Madrid that calls itself a "citizen's laboratory". Here, the critique of scientific fact dialogues with Latour´s compositionism since it is understood as an (important) subset of reality, which, however, should not supersede political debates, but rather relate to “matters of concern". In this perspective, the epistemic modernization process would foster a "third sector of knowledge" that would dispute the anticipatory governance of technoscientific subjects (LAFUENTE, 2007). Our participant observation has observed that current documentation practices tend to reproduce the logic of a cultural production field that fosters new political imaginaries, but does not initiate the knowledge accumulation cycle that would transform citizen laboratories into centre of calculation (LATOUR, 2000). Promoters tend to reduce communication to publicity of activities, attracting potential participants; or accountability, to prove that they carried out the projects.

Ouverture des données de la recherche : de la vision politique aux pratiques des chercheurs / Open research data : from political vision to research practices

Rebouillat, Violaine 03 December 2019 (has links)
Cette thèse s’intéresse aux données de la recherche, dans un contexte d’incitation croissante à leur ouverture. Les données de la recherche sont des informations collectées par les scientifiques dans la perspective d’être utilisées comme preuves d’une théorie scientifique. Il s’agit d’une notion complexe à définir, car contextuelle. Depuis les années 2000, le libre accès aux données occupe une place de plus en plus stratégique dans les politiques de recherche. Ces enjeux ont été relayés par des professions intermédiaires, qui ont développé des services dédiés, destinés à accompagner les chercheurs dans l’application des recommandations de gestion et d’ouverture. La thèse interroge le lien entre idéologie de l’ouverture et pratiques de recherche. Quelles formes de gestion et de partage des données existent dans les communautés de recherche et par quoi sont-elles motivées ? Quelle place les chercheurs accordent-ils à l’offre de services issue des politiques de gestion et d’ouverture des données ? Pour tenter d’y répondre, 57 entretiens ont été réalisés avec des chercheurs de l’Université de Strasbourg dans différentes disciplines. L’enquête révèle une très grande variété de pratiques de gestion et de partage de données. Un des points mis en évidence est que, dans la logique scientifique, le partage des données répond un besoin. Il fait partie intégrante de la stratégie du chercheur, dont l’objectif est avant tout de préserver ses intérêts professionnels. Les données s’inscrivent donc dans un cycle de crédibilité, qui leur confère à la fois une valeur d’usage (pour la production de nouvelles publications) et une valeur d’échange (en tant que monnaie d’échange dans le cadre de collaborations avec des partenaires). L’enquête montre également que les services développés dans un contexte d’ouverture des données correspondent pour une faible partie à ceux qu’utilisent les chercheurs. L’une des hypothèses émises est que l’offre de services arrive trop tôt pour rencontrer les besoins des chercheurs. L’évaluation et la reconnaissance des activités scientifiques étant principalement fondées sur la publication d’articles et d’ouvrages, la gestion et l’ouverture des données ne sont pas considérées comme prioritaires par les chercheurs. La seconde hypothèse avancée est que les services d’ouverture des données sont proposés par des acteurs relativement éloignés des communautés de recherche. Les chercheurs sont davantage influencés par des réseaux spécifiques à leurs champs de recherche (revues, infrastructures…). Ces résultats invitent finalement à reconsidérer la question de la médiation dans l’ouverture des données scientifiques. / The thesis investigates research data, as there is a growing demand for opening them. Research data are information that is collected by scientists in order to be used as evidence for theories. It is a complex, contextual notion. Since the 2000s, open access to scientific data has become a strategic axis of research policies. These policies has been relayed by third actors, who developed services dedicated to support researchers with data management and sharing.The thesis questions the relationship between the ideology of openness and the research practices. Which kinds of data management and sharing practices already exist in research communities? What drives them? Do scientists rely on research data services? Fifty-seven interviews were conducted with researchers from the University of Strasbourg in many disciplines. The survey identifies a myriad of different data management and sharing practices. It appears that data sharing is embedded in the researcher’s strategy: his main goal is to protect his professional interests. Thus, research data are part of a credibility cycle, in which they get both use value (for new publications) and exchange value (as they are traded for other valuable resources). The survey also shows that researchers rarely use the services developed in a context of openness. Two explanations can be put forward. (1) The service offer comes too early to reach researchers’ needs. Currently, data management and sharing are not within researchers’ priorities. The priority is publishing, which is defined as source of reward and recognition of the scientific activities. (2) Data management services are offered by actors outside the research communities. But scientists seem to be more influenced by internal networks, close to their research topics (like journals, infrastructures…). These results prompt us to reconsider the mediation between scientific communities and open research data policies.

<b>Two Case Studies on the Use of Public Bioinformatics Data Toward Open-Access Research</b>

Daphne Rae Krutulis (18414876) 20 April 2024 (has links)
<p dir="ltr">Open-access bioinformatics data enables accessible public health research for a variety of stakeholders, including teachers and low-resourced researchers. This project outlines two case studies utilizing open-access bioinformatics data sets and analysis software as proofs of concept for the types of research projects that can be adapted for workforce development purposes. The first case study is a spatial temporal analysis of Lyme disease rates in the United States from 2008 to 2020 using freely available data from the United States Department of Agriculture and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to determine how urbanization and other changes in land use have impacted Lyme disease rates over time. The second case study conducts a pangenome analysis using bacteriophage data from the Actinobacteriophage Database to determine conserved gene regions related to host specificity.</p>

Attitudes, habits, norms and policies regarding co-authorship among forest scientists in Brazil

Senna da Costa, Mariano 06 July 2018 (has links)
Um Kernfragen zur Mehrautorenschaft in einer bestimmten Zielgruppe zu klären, konzentriert sich diese Arbeit auf Aspekte von technologischer Kompetenz, menschlicher Interaktion und institutioneller Leitlinien. Zuerst werden interdisziplinäre Argumente in Bezug zu Mehrautorenschaft aus den Sozialwissenschaften, Naturwissenschaften, Informatik und Geisteswissenschaften präsentiert. Die Literaturübersicht enthält Statistiken zu Informationsnutzung, Beschreibung von Strategien des Wissensmanagements, Erforschung von Verhaltensmustern und Trends in der Kommunikationstechnologie, sowie Diskussionen einiger historischer, politischer und inhaltlicher Aspekte, welche die Anwendung des Internet als kollaboratives Werkzeug im akademischen Kontext beeinflussen können. Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich auch mit einigen Kontroversen zur Konzeption von Wissenschaft und wissenschaftlicher Praktiken, welche indirekt mit der Problematik von wissenschaftlicher Kommunikation und Zusammenarbeit, sowie Wissensproduktion in Zusammenhang stehen, insofern sie die Produktion Texten mit mehreren Autoren betreffen. Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt der Arbeit befasst sich mir dem zur Zeit vorherrschenden System zur Evaluation akademischer Publikationen (Bibliometrie oder Scientometrie; QUALIS und SCIELO Systeme). Das vorhandene System für die Evaluation von Autoren ist in der Regel unfair /voreingenommen. Das liegt daran, das Statistiken leicht manipuliert werden können um einer bürokratischen und unternehmerischen Agenda zu folgen oder individuelle Interessen darzustellen, anstatt die wirklichen Verdienste eines Autors widerzuspiegeln. Die Untersuchung wurde anhand von semi-strukturierten Interviews durchgeführt, in Kombination mit einer quantitativen Erhebung, welche drei miteinander verbundene Aspekte (technologische, institutionelle und kulturelle), die bei der in Mehrautorenschaft eine Rolle spielen, innerhalb des Graduiertenprogramms in 'Forest Engineering' an der Universidade Federal do Paraná (Brasilien) hervorheben sollte. / In order to verify core issues for co-authorship in a specific audience, the current work focus on technological literacy, human interaction, and institutional policy. It first presents an interdisciplinary collection of arguments from social sciences, natural sciences, computer sciences, and humanities about scientific collaboration, especially regarding co-authorship activities. This literature review includes statistics on information usage, description of knowledge management strategies, exploration of behavioral patterns, communication technology trends, and discussions of some historical, political and contextual elements that may be influencing the application of the Internet as a collaborative tool within academic contexts. It also draws back few controversies about the concept of science and its practices, which are indirectly related to the problematic of scholarly communication, scientific collaboration, and knowledge production. The investigation targets these activities in what they concern the production of co-authored texts. A special focus of this work targets the current mainstream system of academic publishing ranking and evaluation (Bibliometrics or Scientometrics; QUALIS and SCIELO systems). The existing measurement system for the ranking of authors is generally an unfair/biased system, as statistics can easily be manipulated by a bureaucratic and corporate agenda, or by individual interests, rather than representing the real merit of an author. The inquiry applies a semi-structured in-depth interview combined with a quantitative survey intending to reveal three interrelated aspects (Technological, Institutional, and Cultural) involved in co-authorship activities within the Graduate Program in Forest Engineering at the Federal University of Paraná/Brazil.
