Abstract

While shared access to common pool CI resources is requisite for high-performance collaboration, it does not ensure shared and transparent knowledge production in the scientific problem solving process. Participatory, structured analytic-deliberation is key to deepening shared understanding, particularly as problem complexity increases, and should be integrated with analysis tools. The Structured Participation Toolkit (SPT) enables structured participation methods to be seamlessly integrated into analytical environments, such as Science Gateways, to support large-scale, asynchronous participation; structured analytic-deliberation; consensus-building and decision-making; as well as to provide an open, transparent decision repository and participation metrics.
