About
Infrastructure: COS supports and maintains the OSF (www.osf.io) to help researchers manage, archive, and share their research, privately or publicly. In 2018, COS continued to make significant progress in establishing the OSF as a full-featured application framework. This included improvements to a number of core features including authentication, metadata, messaging, version control, access control, data basing, storage services, and a public API. The OSF is now positioned as a free, public infrastructure for creating, connecting, and integrating countless services across the research lifecycle. Because of the OSF's open, modular design, we and others will be able to incorporate the back-end services to support any kind of front-end user interfaces for collection of social science research participant data, with the ability to extend very easily to collection of meta-data for any research application or discipline (not limited to social science). The OSF provides a solution for researchers who are compelled to conduct their research openly and transparently. It also provides a mechanism for policy makers to enable practices of openness and transparency. The OSF provides multiple points of entry into open practices, and allows for researchers to adopt additional open behaviors.
