IMEKO International Measurement Confederation

IMEKO is a non-governmental federation of 42 Member Organizations individually concerned with the advancement of measurement technology.

Its fundamental objectives are the promotion of
- international interchange of scientific and technical information
- in the field of measurement and instrumentation and
- the enhancement of international co-operation among scientists and engineers from research and industry. We have an online-only journal ACTA IMEKO
Focus and Scope:
The main goal of this journal is the enhancement of academic ac

tivities of IMEKO and wider dissemination of scientific output from IMEKO TC events. High-quality papers presented at IMEKO conferences, workshops or congresses are selected by the event organizers and the authors are invited to publish an enhanced version of their paper in this journal. The journal also publishes scientific articles on measurement and instrumentation not related to an IMEKO event.

𝗧𝗶𝘁𝗹𝗲: Data Spaces for the Quality Infrastructure
𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗲: 11 August 12:00-13:00 UCT

Abstract:

The availability and access to data are fundamental to all kinds of digital processes. The digital transformation of the quality infrastructure, the system comprising metrology, accreditation, conformity assessment, standardisation, and market surveillance, requires transforming a large number and variety of processes.

Providing documents by email or as a website download does not meet the requirements of actual digital processes and automation. Instead, machine-to-machine communication and information exchange are needed. One current prominent example is the EU Digital Product Passport (DPP). Data spaces provide the corresponding architecture.

In this M4D Talk, we will introduce the concept and general architecture of data spaces, provide examples of existing implementations, and outline use cases for data spaces in quality infrastructure processes.
