Open Source, Open Research
,----[ Quote ]
| Colleges and universities are as much about research as they are about the
| classroom experience, and just as open source software can provide cost
| savings, independence, and flexibility to educational institutions through
| courseware and recordkeeping, it can assist in the research process. Open
| source and open data standards play a role in collaboration, laboratory and
| literary scholarly research, publishing, and managing the overall research
| programs at institutions of higher learning.

Obama Should Make Energy Research Accessible
,----[ Quote ]
| The open source philosophy of collaboration should also be reinforced by lab
| directors. This would require a cultural shift as researchers can be
| protective of their projects and funding allocations.
|
| Opening the books as to where the money comes from would also give citizens
| more confidence that public funds are being used wisely. Earmarks granted by
| senators to start projects in their districts could be compared to research
| already in progress.
