Dataverse-LRS: integrating Dataverse with the CLARIN Language Resource Switchboard

Concordia C.

Harvard Dataverse platform  CLARIN Language Resource Switchboard 

The "dataverse-lrs" software is a plugin that can be installed in a Dataverse repository to enable the integration in the Dataverse GUI of the CLARIN Language Resource Switchboard (LRS). A Dataverse repository is implemented using an open-source software platform, developed and maintained by the Harvard Institute for Quantitative Social Science (IQSS) (https://dataverse.harvard.edu/), the CLARIN LRS (https://switchboard.clarin.eu) can be seen as a Virtual Tool Registry: for a given resource, it identifies all tools that can process the resource, sorts the tools in terms of the tasks they perform, and presents a task-oriented list of those tools, each tool of the list can be invoked and the resource is automatically processed. The 'dataverse-lrs' software has been developed in the Social Sciences & Humanities Open Cloud (SSHOC) project and is described in the deliverable "3.8 Implementation report and available SSHOC Switchboard and VCR services". The software has been also presented during the CLARIN Centre Meeting 2021 (https://www.clarin.eu/event/2021/centre-meeting-2021).
