A. S. Lopatenko Gaining Insight from Research Information, 6th International Conference on Current Reseach Information Systems, August 29-31, 2002 in Kassel, Germany , language: английский  Аннотация CERIF (Common European Research Information Format) provides a canonical reference data model at both data and metadata levels.

CERIF originated in 1988 but was based on earlier work in several European countries. The CERIF91 standard had some defects which became apparent in use. In 1997 a working group of the EC was set up to produce CERIF2000. This is a formal datamodel and thus unambiguously implementable.
