Centralized governance
![Page 5: NSF EarthCube Charrette June 12-14, 2012](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815f42550346895dce19fc/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
“The Internet has no centralized governance in either technological implementation or policies for access and usage; each constituent network sets its own standards”
Decentralizedgovernance
![Page 6: NSF EarthCube Charrette June 12-14, 2012](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815f42550346895dce19fc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• EarthCube is a governable community • We have an actionable plan and timeline for
the development of a governance framework• We recommend:
– Putting Governance framework in place first– Forming an interim governance committee ASAP– Making the governance framework operational by
December 2012– Continued and enhanced community engagement
CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS
![Page 7: NSF EarthCube Charrette June 12-14, 2012](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815f42550346895dce19fc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Governance refers to the processes, structure and organizational elements that determine, within an organization or system of organizations, how power is exercised, how stakeholders have
their say, how decisions are made, and how decision makers are held
accountable.
OUR DEFINITION OF GOVERNANCE

WHO MAKES DECISIONS?
Benevolent Dictatorship Benevolent dictator
EarthCube Monarchy A group of leaders. Could include advisory committees and boards; by-laws
Science and IT Monarchies Individuals or groups of domain scientists or IT experts
Federal Equivalent of the central and state governments working together
Duopoly Interactions between any two system elements
Feudal Each “fiefdom”
Anarchy Individual, user-driven

• Interim Governance Committee– Implement Governance Roadmap– Goals:
• Evaluate governance models ranging from:– current status (NSF funds each piece separately)– centralized body – Decentralized approach
GOVERNANCE ROADMAP RECOMMENDATIONS
![Page 18: NSF EarthCube Charrette June 12-14, 2012](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815f42550346895dce19fc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• Interim governance committee needs to identify:– Current components of cyberinfrastructure
(data and service providers) – Your organizational paradigms & governance
needs– Interactions among CI components them and
between them – Interactions with systems outside of EarthCube,
and the needs of EarthCube consumers • Including 'long tail' of scientists
GOVERNANCE ROADMAP IMPLEMENTATION

• What attributes/activities do you need EarthCube to do?
• What do you need from EarthCube governance?
• Do you agree that governance framework should be put in place at the start?
• If that doesn’t happen until early 2013, how would that impact your timeline?
