Application Use Cases

[mbrush]

Starting a list of the types of applications that might implement the model to represent a particular type of contribution-related information, as a starting point for fleshing out more detailed use cases and requirements. All welcome to add to / refine this list (feel free to edit the comment directly).

1. Publishers capturing contributions of each author of a paper, e.g. Elsevier, PLOS, etc.
2. Curated Knowledgebases collecting info about how different curators contributed to an annotation/record as it matures through the system, e.g. Clinical Interpretation of Variants in Cancer (CIViC).
3. Research Profiling Systems capturing contributions of a researchers to diverse research outputs/artifacts (pubs, presentations, grants, datasets, courses, patents, etc.), e.g. ORCID, VIVO.
4. Research Data Management Platforms tracking information about contributions to data objects it manages, e.g. Invenio.
5. Data Repositories capturing contributions to submitted data sets it catalogs, e.g. Figshare, Dryad, etc.
6. Software Repositories capturing contributions to software artifacts tracked/developed in their systems, e.g. Github.

In these contexts/systems, the model will support the collection, provision, and exchange of detailed provenance metadata, display of this metadata to system users, and the ability to answer precise contribution-related queries and perform computational analysis to understand and predict patterns in the data.

consider software applications/Github

@jaeddy might have some great ideas, really interested in ensuring this works for workflows, software artifacts, and datasets, think GA4GH contexts too

RE profiling platforms, would be good to talk to digital science, https://www.digital-science.com/products/dimensions/
