Abstract:
The adoption of a DMP in research practices is already a reality in several European and North American universities and research funding institutions. In Fiocruz, this practice comes through a proposal of a DMP template model elaborated by the Instituto de Comunicação e Informação Científica e Tecnológica em Saúde – ICICT/Fiocruz. This poster aims to report a brief evaluation by ICICT / FIOCRUZ of three tools to automate the proposal of Data Management Plan. They are: a) DMPonline created by the Digital Curation Center; b) DMPTools created by the service of the University of California Curation Center; and c) DSWizard which is the newest tool created by the joint ELIXIR CZ and ELIXIR NL project. The result of this evaluation was the following: Although the DMPonline and DMPTools tools are the most widely used and recommended in the international academic and offer several advantages do not have the same advantages of the DSWizard tool, which was born much more flexible and active, containing a more machine-actionable data management plan that brings greater added value to all stakeholders involved. Icict/ Fiocruz is not satisfied so still testing other tools and is studying the possibility to adopt DSWizard but has not yet decided.
