4th International DCC-Conference 2024 - DCC for FAIR principles in the quality infrastructure
The major theme will be the uptake and further development of digital calibration certificates (DCC) as well as discussions about machine-readable data and metadata in the scientific and quality infrastructure.
Conventional calibration certificates will soon be a thing of the past. Metrology institutes and calibration laboratories worldwide are establishing "digital calibration certificates" (DCC) instead of analog versions. Above all, machine readability would significantly support manufacturing and quality monitoring processes, where digitalization is becoming increasingly prevalent.
Automatically running tests, quality certificates that can be retrieved anywhere in the world and quickly developed assessment methods for new products - digitalisation offers enormous potential for the quality infrastructure (QI) to streamline and accelerate processes. Therefore, establishing DCC for metrology is just one piece of the larger puzzle that forms the digital QI of the future.
Scope
Digitalisation of the quality infrastructure (QI) is much more than the simple transfer of contents of the analogue processes and certificates to digital counterparts. Information in a digital QI should be readable and interpretable by machines. This is achieved by storing the data in clearly defined formats. Hence, this conference invites all who are interested in building the scientific and quality infrastructure on top of FAIR principles:
- Recent advances regarding machine-actionable information and data in the quality infrastructure
- Use cases and implementations of digital certificates and reports
- Software solutions for the integration and uptake of FAIR data in the quality infrastructure
- Concepts and frameworks for the interoperability in a digital quality infrastructure
The International Programme Committee will further the scope and programme of the conference.
