Description
Report from the EOSC Executive Board Working Group (WG) Architecture PID Task Force (TF).
Main messages:
1) There is a need for easy-to-use and free at-point-of-use services to assign PIDs to digital objects
2) These digital objects are of many different kinds (data & metadata, instruments, physical samples, variable definitions, ..) and while there are many commonalities, there will be a need for dedicated services
3) Different research disciplines will want to leverage different parts of the “PID service ecosystem” – giving opportunities for innovation and tools building also for SMEs etc.
