dc:description
  • (en) A distributed RI is constituted by geographically distributed implementations/facilities but managed by a single body. Thus, a distributed RI is thus considered as a single RI, modelled in CERIF as a tree of facilities connected to the Facility entity representing the entire RI via recursive cfFacility_Facility relationships with appropriate semantics (e.g. isPartOf) while the RI is connected with its managing body through the cfOrgUnit_Facil link entity.

dc:description
  • (en) A network of RIs comprises several RIs connected in some respect, but each one with its own governance/management body. The relationships between RIs in a network are modelled in CERIF using the CERIF Semantic Layer reference from within the cfFacil_Class link entity (Class=Network, role expression is a network).

  • (en) A virtual RI is defined as e-infrastructure, either a distributed e‐infrastructure that connects several RIs (databases, HP computers, facilities, etc) or a single‐sited electronic RI (e-library, e-archive, data repository, etc).

dc:description
  • (en) A cluster is a grouping of RIs based on certain similarities (scientific domain, geographical region). A cluster of RIs may be supported in some way or funded, e.g. by industry entities. A cluster is modelled in CERIF as a virtual organisation through the cfOrgUnit entity connected with the individual RIs belonging to the cluster with a cfOrgUnit_Facil link entity.
