#  IMPLEMENTATION

The creation of the Data Management Plan started with a discussion during the
Kick-off Meeting of the TEQ project (February 2018) with the members of the
TEQ Steering Committee present at the meeting. This discussion focused on:

  * The specific data to be saved 

  

  * Where they should be saved 

  

  * Whether the partner institutions have specific regulations about data management 

  

At the Kick-off Meeting, it was decided that the DMP will be drafted by the
Chair, based on what written in the GA and on further discussions with other
TEQ members, and will be sent to the SC for approval before month 6.

Between month 2 and month 6, the DMP was object of discussion among the
members and was finalized in a draft sent to the TEQ Consortium members for
approval on June 20, 2018, by the Chair. The DMP was approved unanimously in
eVote by the TEQ Steering Committee members on June 27, 2018.

As described in the Data Management Plan, Consortium members have created
online repositories to store their data and metadata. Here below some examples
of repositories (home pages) of TEQ member institutions: University College
London (Figure 1), Technische Universiteit Delft (Figure 2), University of
Southampton (Figure 3).

As specified in the DMP attached, project data will be collected and
catalogued, whilst specific information will be given about: data-set
reference and name, description of data, standards, associated metadata. Here
below an example of dataset in the repository of the Queen’s University
Belfast.

repository.

As mentioned in the DMP, TEQ-credited publications will be made available and
accessible through the TEQ website in the section _Publications_ , as shown in
Figure 5. In the members-only part of the TEQ website, a detailed list of all
the publications will be made available (Figure 6). Moreover, a similar table
will be provided for all the preprints, as shown in Figure 7. All the above-
mentioned information is downloadable from the TEQ Website (for members only).

#  TIMETABLE

The DMP will be updated, whenever requested by one of the TEQ partners (with
written request to the PI), upon approval of the SC.

**ISSUES MET AND SOLUTIONS**

No issue was met in the achievement of this deliverable.

#  CONCLUSION

Open-source software and components will be available when produced, as well
as experimental data for replication of experiments. Research publications
will be openly accessible. All project partners have created on-line
repositories for their sharable data for reproduction, access, mining,
exploitation.
