NFDI4Cat: Requirements Analysis

<p>The national research data infrastructure (Nationale Forschungsdateninfrastruktur - NFDI) initiative by the German Research Foundation (DFG) develops and establishes research data infrastructures different disciplines by almost 30 consortia. One consortium is NFDI4Cat focusing on catalysis-related sciences. While this goal itself poses a big challenge, the complexity of catalysis-related sciences and their numerous disciplines with specific demands aggravate this challenge. By conducting an extensive analysis based on user interviews, personas and user stories were derived describing what requirements the planned research data infrastructure should be able to fulfill. A first version of this collection of information is provided as a data set which will be refined, expanded and adapted over the course of the next years following an agile approach.</p> <p>The collection of the user stories is represented in the file &quot;NFDI4Cat_UserStories.xlsx&quot;. The methodology of the requirements analysis is described in the file &quot;NFDI4Cat_RequirementsAnalysis.pdf&quot;.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
