Re-Use

 

Re-use refers to the stage in the research lifecycle when the output of previous research serves as the basis for new research projects. Other persons use publications and, in particular, research data as input for new research.

The European Open Science Cloud (EOSC)  is an important initiative in this context. It serves as an open platform for the exchange of research data. The EOSC was launched  at the University of Vienna in November 2018.
