| Summary: | High-throughput scientific instruments are generating massive amounts of data. Today one of the main challenges faced by researchers is to make the best use of the world’s growing wealth of data. Data (re)usability is becoming a distinct characteristic of modern scientific practice, as it allows reanalysis of evidence, reproduction and verification of results, minimizing duplication of effort, and building on the work of others. The paper addresses the technological dimension of data reusability: the scientific data universe, the impediments of data (re)reuse; the data publication process as a bridge between data author and user and the relevant technologies enabling this process.
