******************************************************************
First International Workshop on Reproducible Open Science (RepScience 2016)

****   Co-sponsored by Research Data Alliance Europe and OpenAIRE2020  ****

Hannover, Germany, September 9th, 2016
Web site: http://repscience2016.research-infrastructures.eu/
E-mail: repscience2016 at isti.cnr.it

In conjunction with the International Conference on Theory and Practice of
Digital Libraries (TPDL 2016)

Proceedings published as Special Issue of the D-Lib Magazine Journal
(http://www.dlib.org)
*******************************************************************

###### Workshop Objectives ######

This Workshop aims at becoming a forum to discuss ideas and advancements
towards the revision of current scientific communication practices in
order to support Open Science, introduce novel evaluation schemes, and
enable reproducibility. As such it candidates as an event fostering
collaboration between (i) Library and information scientists working on
the identification of new publication paradigms; (ii) ICT scientists
involved in the definition of new technical solutions to these issues;
(iii) scientists/researchers who actually conduct the research and demand
tools and practices for Open Science. The expected results are
advancements in the definition of the next generation scientific
communication ecosystem, where scientists can publish research results
(including the scientific article, the data, the methods, and any
³alternative² product that may be relevant to the conducted research) in
order to enable reproducibility (effective reuse and decrease of cost of
science) and rely on novel scientific reward practices.

###### Workshop topics ######

The topics of this workshop are of interest to, but not limited to, the
following research avenues:
* Classification (models and ontologies), description (e.g. metadata),
identity management of products of science different from the traditional
article;
* Representing, exchanging, sharing, assessing (peer-reviewing),
depositing, preserving products different from the traditional article
* Publishing workflows for products different from the traditional
article, e.g. submission, review, scientific reward (e.g. software
publishing, research data publishing)
* Interlinking and contextualization of products: mining techniques, LOD,
data models, relationships (citation, versioning) between research
results, etc.
* Findability of products of science: indexing, searching, browsing
challenges;
* Controlled access to products of science (e.g. anonymization,
role-driven views)
* ³Packaging research results²: identification, representation,
description (metadata), deposition, preservation, evaluation, and
interoperability of ³research results packages² (e.g. Research Objects,
Elsevier¹s ³article of the future², executable papers, RMap)
* Systems, tools, paradigms, publishing workflows towards favouring
repetition, replication, reproduction, or re-use of science.

###### Paper Submission ######

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers.
Submitted manuscripts will have to be in the range of 4000-5000 words and
edited with OpenOffice Writer or Microsoft Word, following the "Matters of
style" section in the author guidelines for D-Lib Magazine.

Papers submitted to the workshop will undergo a single-blind peer-review
process by Program Committee members. Accepted papers will be published as
a special issue of the D-Lib Magazine journal, in the first Quarter of
2017. To be published on the proceedings, accepted contributions should be
revised according to the reviews and consider the feedback from the
workshop. Moreover, at least one author is required to register and
present the paper at the workshop.

###### Submission System ######

Research papers must be submitted via the workshop submission system,
available at: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=repscience2016

###### Important dates ######

Research paper submission: July 4th, 2016 - 23:59 CET
Notification of acceptance: August 1st, 2016
Revised paper re-submission: after workshop date, to be agreed with D-Lib
Magazine
Workshop day: September 9th, 2016
