Abstract

The ERN (Ecosystem for Research Networking) works to address challenges that researchers face when participating in multi-campus team science projects. There are a variety of technical and collaborative coordination problems associated with shared access to research computing and data located across the national cyberinfrastructure ecosystem. One of these problems is the need to develop organizational policy that can work in parallel with policies at at different institutions or facilities. Generally, universities are not set up to support science teams that are distributed across many locations, making policy alignment an even more complex issue. We describe some of the work of the ERN Policy Working Group, and introduce some key issues that surfaced while developing a guiding policy framework.
