Description:
FAIR EVA (Evaluator, Validator and Advisor) has been developed to check the FAIRness level of digital objects from different repositories or data portals. It requires the object identifier and the repository to check and it can be adapted to different contexts and environments. Developed within the EOSC-Synergy project it aims at helping data producers and data managers to evaluate the adoption of the FAIR principles based on the RDA indicators. This webinar will present the tool as well as show how it can be deployed, how the different tests works and how it can be adapted to different data systems.
Speaker:
Dr Fernando Aguilar is an Informatics Engineer, since 2011 participating in different national and international projects related to computing and data management. As a developer, he has implemented diverse visualization and data analysis and management tools within the context of water quality research in different water reservoirs in Spain.

Dear All
I'm pleased to announce a new webinar about Green Computing. "Going Green" is a rising trend establishing itself as the preferred way of doing things while saving the environment. Green Computing is the environmentally responsible and eco-friendly use of computers and their resources. In EGI-ACE, there is a Task Force established to coordinate the Green Computing activities of EGI Federation. This is the very first webinar to introduce the group work and how EGI tackle the issues. Register Now to reserve your place, and you won’t miss the opportunity to talk directly to the team!
Title: How Green Is My Infrastructure? --Green Computing - What We Have Done So You Can Do It Too
Date and Time: Wednesday, 30th March 2022 |15:00-16:30 CEST
(Note: the time is slightly different starting from 15:00)
Agenda: https://indico.egi.eu/event/5875/
Registration: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_oqDcea9PRQqfyXsYgyXL8g
Description
One of the core reasons for having a green task force in this project is to identify and share good practice as regards green computing. With this in mind, we have planned a number of dissemination activities starting with this webinar. This first webinar will allow members of the task force to share their experiences with the wider community.
It will take the form of a series of "Lightning" style talks/provocations where targeted individuals who participated in the Green computing survey will share what they have done (and in some cases what that plan to do) when “Greenifying” their infrastructure and data centres (highlighting key problems and solutions along the way). These provocations will be followed by a question and answer session. It's a quick win for both the task force and the community.
Speakers: Members of the EGI-ACE Green Computing Task Force
-- Catalin Condurache (EGI Foundation)
-- Shaun de Witt (UKAEA)
-- Carlos Fernandez (CESGA)
-- Sagar Dolas (SURF)
-- Paul Stokes (Jisc)
