Publishing research data

Research data can be published on the internet through:
  • generic web archives (e.g. archive.org)
  • research data sites (e.g. figshare)
  • more general open access research hosts (e.g. f1000 Research)
  • thematic repositories dedicated to a specific discipline / subject area - sadly there is no sign of an appropriate repository for digital music and audio research
  • institutional repositories dedicated to research from a specific organisation (e.g. QMUL have a repository through which Green open access copies of papers by QM research staff can be published).

Within the Centre for Digital Music, we now have a research data repository for publishing reserach data outputs from the group.

Pre-press e-Prints of articles can be published through http://arxiv.org/ and the related Computing Research Repository

Journals

Of the journals most commonly asssociated with C4DM outputs, six allow the addition of supplemental materials when publishing a paper:
