The initial phase of the project, funded by RDA/EOSC Future, concluded in May 2023 with a workshop where experts working with SMPs and machine-actionable Data Management Plans met together. The project will continue under the umbrella of the NFDI4DataScience consortium. The purpose of the workshop was validating the metadata schema support maSMPs [2, 3], improving its alignment with existing SMPs, and identifying gaps wrt ELIXIR SMPs and RDMO SMPs [4] and Research Data Alliance (RDA) maDMPs [5, 6]. The workshop counted with the participation of 10 people, from ELIXIR Software Development Best Practices Group, Bioschemas [7], RDMO SMPs, RDA DMP Common Standards Working Group, ARGOS and ZB MED. In addition to the resources represented by participants, we also include Codemeta [8] in the analysis. Here we present a report of what happened and what was achieved. Presentations We had five presentations as follows: The ELIXIR Software Management Plans (file P1_The ELIXIR Software Management Plan.pdf) Sustainable and FAIR Software in Research - A RDMO Catalogue for Software Management Plans (file P2_RDMO_SMP.pdf) RDA’s Approach to Machine Actionable Data Management Plans ( P3_maDMP.pdf) machine-actionable Software Management Plans (file P4_maSMP.pdf) (more) Findable bioinformatics software with Bioschemas (file P5_Bioschemas.pdf) Ontology validation ELIXIR and RDMO The complete set of properties from software source code and software release were analyzed.
