    Sorry for any cross postings.

     

    Please consider attending the PDW described below, "Creating New Access to Business Data" on Friday, August 8th at 3 pm.  We will finish up closer to 5 pm and then walk over together to the Kauffman Foundation Reception, which will be held from 5-7 pm at the Hilton Anaheim in Huntington A.  While registration is not required for the PDW, please RSVP to me so I can get an idea of the number of people attending.

     

    This PDW is part of a larger effort in building effective virtual organizations.  Please see the following link for more information about this effort.  http://www.ci.uchicago.edu/events/VirtOrg2008/

     

    Thanks!

    New modalities are being developed both nationally and internationally to promote researcher access to business microdata -- particularly remote access enclaves. Two recent workshops, one NSF funded and in Ann Arbor Michigan, and one in Nuremburg Germany brought together data producers and enclave managers to discuss the best ways to promote such access. This workshop will engage the research community to find out what works best for them in terms of structure and content, as well as what kind of datasets exist that could be targetted to include in remote access facilities. Workshop organisers include data producers (Kauffman Foundation and NIST/TIP), enclave managers (NORC/University of Chicago and IAB/Germany) and researchers (Alicia Robb and Julia Lane)
