Abstract

Closed data Data sharing agreements Metadata Privacy and data sharing Restricted data
Legal and policy-oriented restrictions often hamper if not inhibit well-intended efforts to share sensitive or restricted data. The research reported on in this paper is a part of a larger initiative to develop a prototype system for automatically generating data sharing agreements that address privacy, legal concerns, and other restrictions. A content analysis was conducted, examining a sample of 26 data sharing agreements. The results include 6 high level categories, 15 mid-level attributes, and over 90 lower-level specific attributes, a portion of which can help to expeditiously support the automatic development of data sharing agreements. The paper presents background information, research questions and methods, results, and a discussion. The conclusion summarizes our results and identifies next steps.
