Synopsis Critical remarks on current practices of data article publishing: Issues, challenges, and recommendations by : Quan-Hoang Vuong

The contribution of the data paper publishing paradigm to the knowledge generation and validation processes is becoming substantial and pivotal. In this paper, through the information-processing perspective of Mindsponge Theory, we discuss how the data article publishing system serves as a filtering mechanism for quality control of the increasingly chaotic datasphere. The overemphasis on machine-actionality and technical standards presents some shortcomings and limitations of the data article publishing system, such as the lack of consideration of humanistic values, radical race for big data, and inadequate use of expertise in data evaluation. Without addressing the shortcomings and limitations, the reusability of data will be hindered, and scientific investment to facilitate data sharing will be wasted. Thus, we suggest that the current data paper publishing paradigm needs to be updated with a new philosophy of data.

Synopsis Fostering Integrity in Research by : National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine

The integrity of knowledge that emerges from research is based on individual and collective adherence to core values of objectivity, honesty, openness, fairness, accountability, and stewardship. Integrity in science means that the organizations in which research is conducted encourage those involved to exemplify these values in every step of the research process. Understanding the dynamics that support â€" or distort â€" practices that uphold the integrity of research by all participants ensures that the research enterprise advances knowledge. The 1992 report Responsible Science: Ensuring the Integrity of the Research Process evaluated issues related to scientific responsibility and the conduct of research. It provided a valuable service in describing and analyzing a very complicated set of issues, and has served as a crucial basis for thinking about research integrity for more than two decades. However, as experience has accumulated with various forms of research misconduct, detrimental research practices, and other forms of misconduct, as subsequent empirical research has revealed more about the nature of scientific misconduct, and because technological and social changes have altered the environment in which science is conducted, it is clear that the framework established more than two decades ago needs to be updated. Responsible Science served as a valuable benchmark to set the context for this most recent analysis and to help guide the committee's thought process. Fostering Integrity in Research identifies best practices in research and recommends practical options for discouraging and addressing research misconduct and detrimental research practices.

Synopsis Ensuring the Integrity, Accessibility, and Stewardship of Research Data in the Digital Age by : Institute of Medicine

As digital technologies are expanding the power and reach of research, they are also raising complex issues. These include complications in ensuring the validity of research data; standards that do not keep pace with the high rate of innovation; restrictions on data sharing that reduce the ability of researchers to verify results and build on previous research; and huge increases in the amount of data being generated, creating severe challenges in preserving that data for long-term use. Ensuring the Integrity, Accessibility, and Stewardship of Research Data in the Digital Age examines the consequences of the changes affecting research data with respect to three issues - integrity, accessibility, and stewardship-and finds a need for a new approach to the design and the management of research projects. The report recommends that all researchers receive appropriate training in the management of research data, and calls on researchers to make all research data, methods, and other information underlying results publicly accessible in a timely manner. The book also sees the stewardship of research data as a critical long-term task for the research enterprise and its stakeholders. Individual researchers, research institutions, research sponsors, professional societies, and journals involved in scientific, engineering, and medical research will find this book an essential guide to the principles affecting research data in the digital age.

Synopsis Evolution of Cross-Sector Cyber Intelligent Markets by : Lewis, Eugene J.

In today's digital age, cyber threats have become an ever-increasing risk to businesses, governments, and individuals worldwide. The deep integration of technology into every facet of modern life has given rise to a complex and interconnected web of vulnerabilities. As a result, traditional, sector-specific approaches to cybersecurity have proven insufficient in the face of these sophisticated and relentless adversaries. The need for a transformative solution that transcends organizational silos and fosters cross-sector collaboration, information sharing, and intelligence-driven defense strategies is now more critical than ever. Evolution of Cross-Sector Cyber Intelligent Markets explores the changes occurring within the field of intelligent markets, noting a significant paradigm shift that redefines cybersecurity. Through engaging narratives, real-world examples, and in-depth analysis, the book illuminates the key principles and objectives driving this evolution, shedding light on innovative solutions and collaborative efforts aimed at securing our digital future.
