Description
CLARIN (short for: Common Language Resource and Technology Research Infrastructure) is part of the ESFRI roadmap for research infrastructures that operate on a European scale. CLARIN's objective is to provide a research infrastructure and associated data services for researchers in the humanities and social sciences working with language related material. CLARIN operates under European law as a European Research Infrastructure Community (ERIC) with currently 15 member countries.
The CLARIN research infrastructure is organized as a federation of data centers which are geographically across Europe. The presentation will highlight the challenges that such a geographically distributed research infrastructure poses for data management, data access, and data analysis.
