Abstract

Developing universities’ e-infrastructure is crucial for progressing Open Science (OS) in Ukraine and its successful integration into ERA and EHEA. The study’s object is the OS ecosystem, and the subject is the universities’ research e-infrastructures for OS. The study’s goal is to theoretically substantiate the model of the Ukrainian universities’ research e-infrastructures ecosystem for the development of OS in Ukraine. The study used methods of analysis, synthesis, and generalisation of the EU documents on ERA and EHEA and research publications on implementing OS. The state, issues and tasks for developing e-infrastructures in Ukraine are studied using quantitative and qualitative analysis methods. The modelling method has been used to develop a Ukrainian universities’ research e-infrastructures ecosystem model. As a result of the study, based on the generalisation of the UNESCO, EU, and European University Association standards, the main components of the OS ecosystem are determined. The model of research e-infrastructures ecosystem of Ukrainian universities is proposed and theoretically substantiated. It is developed, taking into account the existing national research e-infrastructure, the OS ecosystem and the EU research e-infrastructures, reflecting the main policy directions for its establishment and development. The proposals for developing OS research e-infrastructures of Ukrainian universities are provided.
