Looking Back to the Future: A Glimpse at Twenty Years of Data Science

Posté le par

Author : Lili Zhang

This paper carries out a lightweight review to explore the potentials of data science in the last two decades and especially focuses on the four essential components: data resources, technologies, data infrastructures, and data education.

Considering the barriers of data science, the analysis has been mapped into four essential components, highlighting priorities and challenges in social and cultural, epistemological, scientific and technical, economic, legal, and ethical aspects.

As a result, the future development of data science tends to shift toward datafication, data technicity, infrastructuralism, and data literacy empowerment. The data ecosystem, at the macro level, has also been analyzed under the open science umbrella, providing a snapshot for the future development of data science.

Authors: Lili Zhang, Robert R. Downs, Jianhui Li, Liangming Wen, Chengzan Li

This paper initially conducts a literature review and content analysis of the open research data policies in China. Next, a series of exemplars describe data practices to promote and enable the use of open research data, including open data practices in research programs, data repositories, data journals, and citizen science.

Moreover, the top four driving forces are identified and analyzed along with their responsible guiding work. In addition, the “landscape of open research data ecology in China” is derived from the literature review and from observations of actual cases, where the interaction and mutual development of data policies, data programs, and data practices are recognized.

Finally, future trends of research data practices within China and internationally are discussed. We hope the analysis provides perspective on current open data practices in China along with insight into the need for additional research on scientific data sharing and management.
