I'm planning to publish an article on Open Research Africa. Can you explain their Article Processing Charge (APC) model, including who covers these charges? Additionally, I need to understand their data sharing policy. Please summarize the general requirements for open data, software, and code. Specifically, what are the key differences or unique considerations for researchers in Physical Sciences and Engineering versus those in Humanities and Social Sciences regarding data and source material submission?
Navigate to 'aasopenresearch.org'. Click on the 'Article Processing Charges' link (ID 143 or similar). Identify how Article Processing Charges (APCs) are handled and who covers them. Navigate to the 'Open Data, Software and Code Guidelines' page (ID 129 or similar). Summarize the general requirements for open data, software, and code. Click on the 'Open Data, Software and Code Guidelines for Physical Sciences and Engineering' link (ID 131 or similar). Identify and describe key considerations or examples for data submission in Physical Sciences and Engineering. Click on the 'Open Data and Accessible Source Materials Guidelines for Humanities and Social Sciences' link (ID 133 or similar). Identify and describe key considerations or examples for data and source material submission in Humanities and Social Sciences. Synthesize all collected information into a concise answer.
The agent states that the standard APC is not explicitly listed, but that APCs are covered by Open Research Africa's partners (e.g., Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation) for research they fund or are affiliated with. The agent summarizes the general open data guidelines, including requirements for deposition in a repository, licensing, persistent identifiers, data availability statements, and avoiding sensitive information. The agent identifies key considerations for Physical Sciences and Engineering, such as examples of data types (e.g., source code, crystallographic files, georeferenced data) and potential exceptions (e.g., proprietary software, export control). The agent identifies key considerations for Humanities and Social Sciences, such as the broad definition of data/source materials (e.g., archival documents, museum objects, field notes, interview transcripts) and the requirement to provide access to all generated or reused materials, including the mention of the Heritage Data Reuse Charter.
