Sound Data Management Training

h1. Data management resources for C4DM researchers

h2. Source Code Management

"Sound Software":http://code.soundsoftware.ac.uk provides Mercurial version control and assorted project management facilities (e.g. options for issue logs, Gantt charts, wikis, downloads, documentation). These facilities are available for any researcher in the audio and music field within the UK, working with UK researchers, or working on a project of interest to UK researchers.

h2. Backing Up

For researchers within the QMUL school of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science, details of available file servers can be found "on the intranet":https://intranet.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/services/file. Home and research group directories are backed up to tape but bulk data storage facilities are not.

h2. Data Publication

For C4DM researchers, data can be published through the "C4DM data repository":http://c4dm.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/rdr/xmlui/. This is a DSpace repository allowing research data to be published with basic metadata (author, preferred citation etc.).
