Dear All,<br>
<br>
Today is the date when EPSRC expectations on research data go up to
another level (see below - extracted from weekly update).<br>
<br>
An additional comment from me - generation of the DOI (or other
weblink) for datasets, needed in your paper acknowledgements,
requires the dataset to be created and ready on PURE. This can take
time so please look to create the datasets in good time. Some
Physics journals go very fast from acceptance to print.<br>
