SUMMARY:3rd NFDIxCS Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) aims to transl
 ate discipline-specific research data and research software (research artif
 acts) management practices into a supporting infrastructure that adhere to 
 the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable). Nation
 al Research Data Infrastructure for and with Computer Science (NFDIxCS) is 
 the consortium for the computer science community.\n\nThe Research Data Man
 agement Container (RDMC) is a central conceptual framework to seal the curr
 ent research output, enable reproducibility and preserve artifact in accord
 ance with good scientific practice. One of the working directions of the co
 nsortium is centred on implementing a workflow to create RDMCs for publicat
 ion processes, which could be artifact evaluation tracks at conferences.\n\
 nBuilding on these efforts, the third NFDIxCS symposium will explore how ex
 periences and developments from various disciplines within the computer sci
 ence community can inform the design of workflows and infrastructures (such
  as those for artifact evaluation, badging systems, metadata standards, reg
 istries, persistent identifiers (PIDs) or computational and archiving platf
 orms) that support FAIR principles and are embedded into conferences, journ
 als, and institutional workflows.\n\nThe symposium will include discussions
  on how to collaborate with these presented approaches in the context of NF
 DIxCS, with the goal of enabling seamless support for research artifact man
 agement across computer science disciplines.\n\nTopics of Interest\n\nThe N
 FDIxCS-Symposium invites presentations, demonstrations, and discussions tha
 t address conceptual, technical, and organizational dimensions of open rese
 arch artifact and their evaluation. Each presentation has a total duration 
 of 30 minutes (20min talk + 10min discussion). A focus lies on solutions, w
 orkflows, and cross-domains as well as cultural challenges that influence t
 he adoption and standardization of artifact evaluation practices:\n\n 	Infr
 astructure and integration tools:    	 		Platforms and frameworks for the s
 ubmission, validation and publication of research artifact; 		Metadata sche
 mas, semantic annotations and ontologies that enhance machine-actionability
 ; 		Middleware and services that support the integration of artifact workfl
 ow into research infrastructure. 		  	 	 	Cross-Domain practices and cultur
 al challenges: 	 		Evaluation criteria and quality checklists across divers
 e computer science and interdisciplinary domains 		Insights from initiative
 s such as ACM artifact review and badging process 		Institutional, discipli
 nary and cultural barriers to adoption of artifact evaluation 	 	 \n\nPrese
 ntations should ideally contribute to the overarching aim of the symposium:
  connecting community-driven practices to practical workflows and infrastru
 ctures that support FAIR principles within computer science. We especially 
 welcome contributions that:\n\n 	Are grounded in the computer science commu
 nity, reflecting disciplinary needs, practices, or challenges; 	Connect to 
 the NFDIxCS topics or overall architecture concept of NFDI, contributing co
 nceptually or practically to ongoing efforts; 	Demonstrate a level of matur
 ity that allows for constructive discussion and potential integration into 
 workflows or infrastructure development. \n\nSubmission \n\nWe warmly invit
 e contributions from all interested participants. Please submit a short abs
 tract (minimum 250 words) for each proposed contribution. Abstracts may be 
 submitted in German or English. However, all presentations are expected to 
 be delivered in English.\n\nIf you have any special requirements (e.g. acce
 ssibility needs, technical setup requests), please include this information
  in the submission form or contact the organizing team directly. \n\nSubmis
 sion should be made via NFDIxCS Symposium 2025 no later than August 15, 202
 5. \n\nAll submissions will be peer-reviewed by the symposium committee and
  evaluated based on their alignment and relevance to the symposium themes. 
 \n\nAs part of our dissemination strategy, we plan to publish a summary rep
 ort capturing the key outcomes of the symposium presentations and valuable 
 discussion points. This report will be openly available via Zenodo communit
 y and the NFDIxCS blog.\n\nTimeline\n\n 	July 2nd, 2025 Open for submission
