Storage and Interoperability (SI)
The SI group of work packages relates to the need to work with documents, datasets, simulations, software and dynamic knowledge representations in a secure way with controlled access. This includes collection from a range of devices, secure transfer across networks, storage on high-capacity devices, management and preservation in repositories, and maintaining the integrity of the datasets.
