Towards Open Science: The myExperiment approach
http://jb4-2.eprints-hosting.org/2722
By making research content more reusable, and providing a social infrastructure which facilitates sharing, the human aspects of the scholarly knowledge cycle may be accelerated and ‘time-to-discovery’ reduced. We propose that the key to this is the sharing of methods and processes. We present myExperiment, a social web site for discovering, sharing and curating Scientific Workflows and experiment plans, and describe how myExperiment facilitates the management and sharing of research workflows, supports a social model for content curation tailored to the researcher and community, and supports Open Science by exposing content and functionality to the users’ tools and applications. Based on this we introduce the notion of the Research Object – the work objects that are built, transformed and published in the course of scientific experiments – and suggest that by encapsulating methods with results we can achieve research that is more reusable and repeatable and hence rapid and robust.

The myExperiment Open Repository for Scientific Workflows
http://jb4-2.eprints-hosting.org/2724
myExperiment is an open repository solution for the born-digital items arising in contemporary research practice, in particular scientific workflows and experiment plans. Launched in November 2007, the public repository (myexperiment.org) has established a significant collection of scientific workflows, spanning multiple disciplines and multiple workflow systems, which has been accessed by over 16,000 users worldwide. Built according to Web 2.0 design principles, myExperiment demonstrates the success of blending modern social curation methods with the demands of researchers sharing hard-won intellectual assets and research works within a scholarly communication lifecycle. myExperiment is an important component in the revolution in creating, sharing and publishing scientific results, and has already established itself as a valuable and unique repository with a growing international presence.
