Problem Statements• Universities are incredibly large and
diverse hubs of knowledge and activity• Truly impossible to quantify the wealth of
knowledge and activities that exist on campuses
• Difficult to answer the question, “Who knows what?”
• Potential Missed Collaborative Opps
![Page 3: Leveraging NC’s Knowledge Assets & Research Capacity](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062502/568138e4550346895da09627/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Problem Statements• Difficult to ‘market’ the University
because breadth of activity is large• Data can exist in silos or not at all• Large repositories of data can exist,
but not be leveraged

Traditional Answers• Keyword searches• Google• Reference Databases• Direct, firsthand knowledge• ‘Word of mouth’

The Initiative• Aggregate and leverage large
repositories of scholarly activity & research data
• Use taxonomical classification to create ‘digital fingerprint’ representations of expertise
• Create a ‘dashboard’ of powerful visualization tools to ‘tell the story’

The Initiative• “This has all been tried before and
failed. What is different about this project from those previous failed attempts?

The Partnership• UNC-Chapel Hill
– Office of Research Info Systems (ORIS)– NC Translational and Clinical Sciences
Institute (TraCS)– Renaissance Computing Institute
(RENCI)• NC State University• UNC General Administration

The Project• Phase 1 (funded)
– UNC-Chapel Hill– NC State University
• Phase 2 (to be funded)– Remainder of UNC-system Universities
• Phase 3 (theoretical)Duke, Wake Forest, etc
