What *IS* “success”?
https://goo.gl/b60moX
It’s not always what you see
What is attribution???
Over 1000 authors
Many contributions don’t lead to authorship
BD2K co-authorship
D.EichmannN.Vasilevsky
20% key personnel are not adequately profiled using publications
Some contributions are anonymous

• Measurement instruments• Continuing education materials• Cost-effective intervention• Change in delivery of healthcare services• Quality measure guidelines• Gray literature
Evidence of meaningful impact
• New experimental methods, data models, databases, software tools
• New diagnostic criteria • New standards of care• Biological materials, animal models• Consent documents• Clinical/practice guidelines

Diverse outputs Diverse impacts
Diverse rolesEach a critical component of
the research process
EXAMPLE OUTPUTS related to software:
Outputs: binary redistribution package (installer), algorithm, data analytic software tool, analysis scripts, data cleaning, APIs, codebook (for content analysis), source code, software to make metadata for libraries archives and museums, data analytic software tool, source code, program codes (for modeling), commentary in code(thinking of open source-need to attribute code authors and commentator/enhancers/hackers, who can document what they did and why), computer language (a syntax to describe a set of operations or activities), software patch (set of changes to code to fix bugs, add features, etc.), digital workflow (automated sequence of programs, steps to an outcome), software library (non-stand alone code that can be incorporated into something larger), software application (computer code that accomplishes something)
Roles: catalog, design, develop, test, hacker, bug finder, software developer, software engineer, developer, programmer, system administrator, execute, document, software package maintainer, project manager, database administrator

VIVO-ISF: Suite of ontologies that integrates and extends community standards
Credit extends beyond the original contribution
Stacy creates mouse1
Kristi creates mouse2
Karen uses performs RNAseq analysis on mouse1 and mouse2 to generate dataset3, which she subsequently curates and analyzes
Karen writes publication pmid:12345 about the results of her analysis
Karen explicitly credits Stacy as an author but not Kristi.
Credit is connected
Credit to Stacy is asserted, but credit to Kristi can be inferred
Introducing openRIFThe Open Research Information Framework
openRIF
SciENcv
eagle-i
VIVO-ISF
Ensuring an openRIF that meets community needs
Data E
ntry Discovery
Interoperability
A domain configurable suite of ontologies to enable interoperability across systems
A community of developers, tools, data providers, and end-users
Developing a computable research ecosystem
Research information is scattered amongst:Research networking toolsCitation databases (e.g., PubMED)Award databases (e.g., NIH Reporter)Curated archives (e.g., GenBank)Locked up in text (the research literature)
Map SciENcv data model to VIVO-ISF/openRIF
Enable bi-directional data exchange

Identifying those scholarly outputs
Identifiers for things that are not publications, or documents, need to get beyond thinking about DOIs
