Task Area 4: Cooperation with Other Disciplines

Mission

As mathematical models, software and workflows can be applied to a wide range of disciplines from natural and life sciences to the humanities, it is crucial to reflect the disciplines needs for FAIR research data management and standardized descriptions of these artifacts. Starting from case studies, TA4 aims at working together with interdisciplinary partners and other NFDI consortia to develop interdisciplinary workflows, standardize mathematical descriptions and create a platform for exchange. These activities, together with the standardization of data within the NFDI framework, is intended to emulate the FAIR principles and provides a dependable platform from which other disciplines could benefit.

Standardization of mathematical descriptions for us means the creation of a database for mathematical models. This development is in progress and is called MathModDB.

Moreover, MaRDMO will deliver descriptions of workflows

Use Cases / Workflows

The documentation of interdisciplinary workflows reflects Measure M4.1. of the MaRDRI research program. It is a crucial part to understand the requirements of the applied sciences with respect to their mathematical grounding. Moreover, it serves as a predecessing step toward the development of a mathematical standardization. Please find a list of interdisciplinary use cases our work is based on here: Workflows

MathModDB - A database for mathematical models

As models are a crucial step in the model-simulation pipeline, and mathematical standardization is elementary in our mission statement, the development of a database for mathematical models is justified and reflects Measure M4.2. in the MaRDI research program. The database will be set up as an ontology / knowledge graph, called MathModDB.
