Research data management (RDM) combines a set of practices for the organization, storage and preservation of data from research projects. The RDM strategy of a project is usually formalized as a data management plan (DMP)—a document that sets out procedures to ensure data findability, accessibility, interoperability and reusability (FAIR-ness). Many aspects of RDM are standardized across disciplines so that data and metadata are reusable, but the components of DMPs in the plant sciences are often disconnected. The inability to reuse plant-specific DMP content across projects and funding sources requires additional time and effort to write unique DMPs for different settings. To address this issue, we developed DataPLAN—an open-source tool incorporating prewritten DMP content for the plant sciences that can be used online or offline to prepare multiple DMPs. The current version of DataPLAN supports Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe projects, as well as projects funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). Furthermore, DataPLAN offers the option for users to customize their own templates. Additional templates to accommodate other funding schemes will be added in the future. DataPLAN reduces the workload needed to create or update DMPs in the plant sciences by presenting standardized RDM practices optimized for different funding contexts.

The impacts of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic have been extremely severe, with both economic and health crises experienced worldwide. Based on the panel regression model, this study examined the trends and correlations in the number of COVID-19-related deaths and the number of COVID-19-infected cases in all 37 regions of the Tamil Nadu state in India, in August 2020. The fixed effects model had the greatest R2 value of 78% and exhibited significant results. The slope coefficient was also highly significant, showing a considerable variation in the relationship between new COVID-19 cases and deaths. Additionally, for every unit increase in COVID-19-infected cases, the death rate increased by 0.02%.

This paper describes a dataset collected in an industrial setting using a mobile unit resembling an industrial vehicle equipped with several sensors. Wi-Fi interfaces collect signals from available Access Points (APs), while motion sensors collect data regarding the mobile unit’s movement (orientation and displacement). The distinctive features of this dataset include synchronous data collection from multiple sensors, such as Wi-Fi data acquired from multiple interfaces (including a radio map), orientation provided by two low-cost Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) sensors, and displacement (travelled distance) measured by an absolute encoder attached to the mobile unit’s wheel. Accurate ground-truth information was determined using a computer vision approach that recorded timestamps as the mobile unit passed through reference locations. We assessed the quality of the proposed dataset by applying baseline methods for dead reckoning and Wi-Fi fingerprinting. The average positioning error for simple dead reckoning, without using any other absolute positioning technique, is 8.25 m and 11.66 m for IMU1 and IMU2, respectively. The average positioning error for simple Wi-Fi fingerprinting is 2.19 m when combining the RSSI information from five Wi-Fi interfaces. This dataset contributes to the fields of Industry 4.0 and mobile sensing, providing researchers with a resource to develop, test, and evaluate indoor tracking solutions for industrial vehicles.

Islamic content is a broad and diverse domain that encompasses various sources, topics, and perspectives. However, there is a lack of comprehensive and reliable datasets that can facilitate conducting studies on Islamic content. In this paper, we present fatwaset, the first public Arabic dataset of Islamic fatwas. It contains Islamic fatwas that we collected from various trusted and authenticated sources in the Islamic fatwa domain, such as agencies, religious scholars, and websites. Fatwaset is a rich resource as it does not only contain fatwas but also includes a considerable set of their surrounding metadata. It can be used for many natural language processing (NLP) tasks, such as language modeling, question answering, author attribution, topic identification, text classification, and text summarization. It can also support other domains that are related to Islamic culture, such as philosophy and language art. We describe the methodology and criteria we used to select the content, as well as the challenges and limitations we faced. Additionally, we perform an Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA), which investigates the dataset from different perspectives. The results of the EDA reveal important information that greatly benefits researchers in this area.

Cybersecurity social networking is a new scientific and engineering discipline that was interdisciplinary in its early days, but is now transdisciplinary. The issues of reviewing and analyzing of principal tasks related to information collection, monitoring of social networks, assessment methods, and preventing and combating cybersecurity threats are, therefore, essential and pending. There is a need to design certain methods, models, and program complexes aimed at estimating risks related to the cyberspace of social networks and the support of their activities. This study considers a risk to be the combination of consequences of a given event (or incident) with a probable occurrence (likelihood of occurrence) involved, while risk assessment is a general issue of identification, estimation, and evaluation of risk. The findings of the study made it possible to elucidate that the technique of cognitive modeling for risk assessment is part of a comprehensive cybersecurity approach included in the requirements of basic IT standards, including IT security risk management. The study presents a comprehensive approach in the field of cybersecurity in social networks that allows for consideration of all the elements that constitute cybersecurity as a complex, interconnected system. The ultimate goal of this approach to cybersecurity is the organization of an uninterrupted scheme of protection against any impacts related to physical, hardware, software, network, and human objects or resources of the critical infrastructure of social networks, as well as the integration of various levels and means of protection.

Machine learning is a crucial tool for both academic and real-world applications. Classification problems are often used as the preferred showcase in this space, which has led to a wide variety of datasets being collected and utilized for a myriad of applications. Unfortunately, there is very little standardization in how these datasets are collected, processed, and disseminated. As new learning paradigms like lifelong or meta-learning become more popular, the demand for merging tasks for at-scale evaluation of algorithms has also increased. This paper provides a methodology for processing and cleaning datasets that can be applied to existing or new classification tasks as well as implements these practices in a collection of diverse classification tasks called USC-DCT. Constructed using 107 classification tasks collected from the internet, this collection provides a transparent and standardized pipeline that can be useful for many different applications and frameworks. While there are currently 107 tasks, USC-DCT is designed to enable future growth. Additional discussion provides explanations of applications in machine learning paradigms such as transfer, lifelong, or meta-learning, how revisions to the collection will be handled, and further tips for curating and using classification tasks at this scale.

In this paper, we describe a 13-year (2009–2022) dataset of legacy POP concentrations (DDTtot and sumPCB14 from 2016 isomers and congeners concentrations are also reported) in the planktonic crustaceans of Lake Maggiore (≥450 µm size fraction). The data were collected in the framework of a monitoring program finalized to assess the presence of pollutants in the lake biota, including zooplankton organisms directly preyed by fish. The data report both concentration of DDTtot and sumPCB14 in the zooplankton and the standing stock density and biomass of the population in each season. The dataset allows for detecting changes in the concentration over the long term and within a year, thus providing evidence for the seasonal and the plurennial variations in the presence of these pollutants in the lake. They also provide a basis for further studies aimed at modeling paths and the fate of persistent organic pollutants, for which the amount of toxicants stocked in the zooplankton compartment linked to fish is a crucial estimate.

This dataset collects tabular and geographical information about all hydrogeological disasters (landslides and floods) that occurred in Italy from 2013 to 2022 that caused such severe impacts as to require the declaration of national-level emergencies. The severity and spatiotemporal extension of each emergency are characterized in terms of duration and timing, funds requested by local administrations, funds approved by the national government, and municipalities and provinces hit by the event (further subdivided between those included in the emergency and those not, depending on whether relevant impacts were ascertained). Italian exposure to hydrogeological risk is portrayed strikingly: in the covered period, 123 emergencies affected Italy, all regions were struck at least once, and some provinces were struck more than 10 times. Damage declared by local institutions adds up to EUR 11,000,000,000, while national recovery funds add up to EUR 1,000,000,000. The dataset may foster further research on risk assessment, econometric analysis, public policy support, and decision-making implementation. Moreover, it provides systematic evidence helpful in raising awareness about hydrogeological risks affecting Italy.

The rapid expansion of distributed generation leads to the integration of an increasing number of energy generation sources. However, integrating these sources into electrical distribution networks presents specific challenges to ensure that the distribution networks can effectively accommodate the associated distributed energy and power. Thus, it is crucial to evaluate the electrical effects of power along the conductors, components, and loads. Power-flow analysis is a well-established numerical methodology for assessing parameters and quantities within power systems during steady-state operation. The University of São Paulo’s Cidade Universitária “Armando de Salles Oliveira” (CUASO) campus in São Paulo, Brazil, features an underground power distribution system. The Institute of Energy and Environment (IEE) leads the integration of several distributed generation (DG) sources, including a biogas plant, photovoltaic installations, and a small wind turbine, into one of the CUASO’s feeders, referred to as “USP-105”. Load-flow simulations were conducted using the PowerWorldTM Simulator v.23, considering the interconnection of these sources.

分布式发电的迅速发展导致了越来越多的能源集成化。然而，将这些能源整合到配电网络中，为确保配电网络能够有效地容纳相关的分布式能源和电力，提出了具体的挑战。因此，评估沿导体、元件和负载的电力效应是至关重要的。潮流分析是一种成熟的数值方法，用于评估电力系统在稳态运行时的参数和数量。巴西圣保罗大学Cidade Universitária“Armando de Salles Oliveira”(CUASO)校区位于巴西圣保罗，其特色是地下配电系统。能源与环境研究所(IEE)领导了几个分布式发电(DG)来源的整合，包括沼气厂，光伏装置和小型风力涡轮机，进入CUASO的一个馈线，称为“USP-105”。考虑到这些源的互连，使用PowerWorldTM Simulator v.23进行负载流模拟。该数据集提供了模拟中使用的综合信息和计算文件。它是重新分析、教学目的和传播与DG实施相关的技术见解的宝贵资源。
{"title":"Power-Flow Simulations for Integrating Renewable Distributed Generation from Biogas, Photovoltaic, and Small Wind Sources on an Underground Distribution Feeder","authors":"Welson Bassi, Igor Cordeiro, Ildo Luis Sauer","doi":"10.3390/data8100150","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3390/data8100150","url":null,"abstract":"The rapid expansion of distributed generation leads to the integration of an increasing number of energy generation sources. However, integrating these sources into electrical distribution networks presents specific challenges to ensure that the distribution networks can effectively accommodate the associated distributed energy and power. Thus, it is crucial to evaluate the electrical effects of power along the conductors, components, and loads. Power-flow analysis is a well-established numerical methodology for assessing parameters and quantities within power systems during steady-state operation. The University of São Paulo’s Cidade Universitária “Armando de Salles Oliveira” (CUASO) campus in São Paulo, Brazil, features an underground power distribution system. The Institute of Energy and Environment (IEE) leads the integration of several distributed generation (DG) sources, including a biogas plant, photovoltaic installations, and a small wind turbine, into one of the CUASO’s feeders, referred to as “USP-105”. Load-flow simulations were conducted using the PowerWorldTM Simulator v.23, considering the interconnection of these sources.
