Paul writes workflows for identifying biological pathways implicated in resistance to Trypanosomiasis in cattle
Paul meets Jo. Jo is investigating Whipworm in mouse.
Jo reuses one of Paul’s workflow without change.
Jo identifies the biological pathways involved in sex dependence in the mouse model, believed to be involved in the ability of mice to expel the parasite.
Previously a manual two year study by Jo had failed to do this.

Research Objects enable research to be:
1.Replayable – go back and see what happened2.Repeatable – run the experiment again3.Reproducible – new expt to reproduce results4.Reusable – use as part of new experiments5.Repurposeable – reuse the pieces in new expt6.Replicatable – run more of the same7.Robust – unbiased systematic science at speed

1st Generation
Current practice of early adoptors of e-Labs tools such as Taverna, ELNs, LIMS.
Characterised by researchers using tools within their particular problem area, with some re-use of tools, data and methods within the discipline.
Traditional publishing is supplemented by publication of some digital items like workflows and links to data.
Provenance is recorded but not shared and re-used.
Science is accelerated and practice beginning to shift to emphasise in silico work.
e-Laboratory Evolutione-Laboratory Evolution
2nd Generation
Designing and delivering now, based on experience with Taverna, myExperiment and Lablogs.
Key characteristic is re-use - of the increasing pool of tools, data and methods, across areas & disciplines.
Contain some freestanding, recombinant, reproducible Research Objects.
Provenance analytics plays a role.
Expert curation supplemented by community curation.
New scientific practices are established and opportunities arise for completely new scientific investigations.
3rd GenerationThe vision - the e-Labs we'll be delivering in 5 years - illustrated by open science and open source science.Characterised by global reuse of tools, data and methods across any discipline, and surfacing the right levels of complexity for the researcher. Key characteristic is radical sharing Research is significantly data driven - plundering the backlog of data, results and methods. Research Objects supersede papers.Increasing automation and decision-support for the researcher - the e-Laboratory becomes assistive. Provenance assists design.Curation is autonomic and social.Entirely new research outcomes are obtained.

• Understand the Web 2 generation of researchers and the changing nature of research practice
• Success of agile development methods and the “perpetual beta”• Co-operate don’t control• The paper is an archaic human-readable form of a Research Object
– “Could I have a copy of your Research Object please?”
