Australian E-Research Strategy: A Comprehensive Framework for Data Management and Collaboration

The E-Research Coordinating Committee report outlines a strategic framework for enhancing e-research in Australia. This framework emphasizes the importance of data management throughout the entire research cycle, from discovery to dissemination. It highlights the need for leadership, skills development, and stakeholder coordination to foster a collaborative e-research environment. The strategy aims to improve access to research resources and support the wider community, leveraging high-performance computing and national data architectures to drive innovation and maintain Australia's strengths in research.
