#  WHO IS IN CHARGE OF THE DMP AND OF THE DATA

_Person in charge of_ Raffaele Colombelli (raffaele.colombelli@u-psud.fr). The
DMP will _DMP_ be updated in collaboration with the partners of the project.

_Data ownership_ Results are owned by the Beneficiaries that generate them.

Joint ownership:

  * each of the joint owners shall be entitled to use their jointly owned Results for non-commercial research activities on a royaltyfree basis, and without requiring the prior consent of the other joint owner(s), and 

  

  * each of the joint owners shall be entitled to otherwise Exploit the jointly owned Results and to grant non-exclusive licenses to third parties(without any right to sub-license), if the other joint owners are given: 

  

  1. at least 45 calendar days advance notice; 

  

  2. Fair and Reasonable conditions 

  

  3. possibility to discuss/modify such conditions

_Costs_

</td>

The type of data generated are essentially ASCII files, with their accurate
description, therefore the cost is expected to be marginal.

#  WHAT ARE THE DATASETS

_Datasets_ Datasets will be defined as the data generated by the proposed
project. In the case of this project, we expect most of the data set to be
ASCII files.

##  DATA DESCRIPTION

_Data Type**Raw data** _ . Most experiments performed within the consortium
involve recording properties of semiconductor active and passive

devices such as reflectivity, transmission, photoluminescence, and time-
resolved versions of these data.

The primary (i.e., raw) forms of data will be

  * mostly ASCII files (.dat or .txt files). This will be the primary method for the generation of data during the project; 

  

  * photos (SEM or optical) of the investigated samples in the form of st andard image formats (.jpg, .bmp); 

  

  * electromagnetic and/or electronic simulations, performed with numerical or analytic methods. In both cases, the output data will be mostly in the form of ASCII files. 

  

_Reuse of data_ It is not expected to reuse any previously generated data in
the current proposal

_Data acquisition_ Data will be acquired through standard laboratory tools
(such as

Labview) and also software that permits to run specific equipments

(OPUS for Bruker spectrometers; OMNIC for Nicolet spectrometers; ) and saved
in ASCII formats too.

_Data archival_ All data will be stored in digital form, either in the format
in which it was originally generated (.dat ASCII files; OPUS / OMNIC files;
jpg files). If required the data will be converted from specialized software
formats in order to permit the use of data without recurring to proprietary
software. Description of the files will be provided as PDF.

_Data support_

As well as electronic conservation of the data, some information on the data
collection will be noted as hardcopies in Lab-books

_Data Hosting_

</td>

The data will be conserved on local hard drives and backed-up according to
each Beneficiary procedures.

_Data Privacy:_

</td>

Special accreditation will be given to all persons likely to access the data.

_Data integrity and traceability:_

Laboratory books will be used.

_Data reading_

As much as possible, standard formats will be used. Therefore it is expected
that no special/proprietary software will be required to access the data.

_Data sharing_

</td>

Relevant data will be shared through email or through secure ftp servers (for
instance the coordinating institution, University Paris Sud, has such secure
ftp server and it can be used by all

Beneficiaries).

It will be the responsibility of each researcher to annotate their data with

the project that all participants must assure data is being properly

_Other Information_

**3.4 DISSEMINATION**

The naming of the data sets will be adapted depending on the type of sample or
measurement undertaken. The format will be described in the pdf file when
uploaded for dissemination.

_General principle_

</td>  
<td>

In accordance with the grant agreement, the beneficiaries will deposit in a
research data repository (e.g. ZENODO, among others) and take measures to make
it possible for third parties to access, mine, exploit, reproduce and
disseminate the data needed to validate the results presented in scientific
publications

_Data repository and access_

</td>  
<td>

Research data from this project will be deposited in ZENODO to ensure their
long-term access by the scientific community. There are no ethical or privacy
issues involved in sharing of the type of data generated by MIR-BOSE. Data
will not require specific/proprietary software to be processed, and a pdf file
will be generated to describe the data and, if necessary, how it can be
analyzed.

_Exceptions_

</td>

Exception to the diffusion of data will be related Intellectual Property
protection (e.g. Patent, Licensing etc.)

_Embargo_

_Data selection_

</td>

Data related to diffusion related events (publications, conferences, patents)
will be conserved. There is no plan to destroy any collected data as the
