Re: Call for Linked Research

Hi Sarven

On point 2 : Publish your progress and work following the Linked Data
design principles. Create a URI for everything that is of some value to you
and may be to others e.g., hypothesis, workflow steps, variables,
provenance, results etc.

For such public to be really interoperable, all this should rely on shared
vocabularies. This important point is not obvious in your call. Which
vocabularies would you suggest?
Semanticscience Integrated Ontology is a god candidate for this
