Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are leading
an effort to create a one-stop shop for data sets that would otherwise be
lost to the public after the papers they were produced for are published.

The goal of the project, called DataBridge, is to expand the life cycle of
so-called dark data, said Arcot Rajasekar, the lead principal investigator
on the project and a professor in the School of Information and Library
Science at Chapel Hill. It will serve as an archive for data sets and
metadata, and will group them into clusters of information to make relevant
data easier to find.

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of
laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the
umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
