Data Spaces are vital for developing and enhancing data sharing between organisations, people, countries, or communities. However, Data Spaces remain complex projects (governance, technical implementation, etc.) to lead, and only a few are operational today.

Conference contact person: Welcome to the online Learning Circle on the Minimal Interoperability Standard 4 (MIM-4): Towards Interoperable Personal Data Management within Smart Cities 4 October – 22 November 2022, online, free Provided by Vastuu Group & H3C project The learning circle is part of the H3C: Human-centric companies and cities project, co-funded by the Helsinki-Uusimaa Regional Council from the sum allocated for the purpose of buttressing sustainable growth and vitality in the regions. This learning circle consists of four workshops held biweekly (homework realisation could be given three weeks to conclude) from 4 October to 22 November. It’s all online and with free participation. Each consecutive workshop drills deeper on implementing human-centric personal data use cases hands-on. The actual hands-on phase and team homework require the attendees to form teams of 3 to 4 persons, ultimately such teams should come from the same organisation and represent its core stakeholders what comes to realising new personal data-driven services. By the end of the circle the participants undergo a process of defining and implementing a working prototype of their own MyData service. The provided sandbox based on our MyDataShare operator platform contains tools, simulated data sources and active credentials for the teams to configure their use cases within the MyData operator. Homework may include the team’s own software development around a rough MyData service prototype. If some learning circle participants are either using a different MyData Operator already in their services, or represent another operator, the team homework can also be arranged around multi-operator interoperability. This would focus on data source interoperability across operators, and an approach is sought by using a suggested MIM4 Connector element. Access to the Connector source code and documentation is provided for the teams, and the simulated data sources for the generic MyData use cases can be used also in this cross-operator interoperability homework track. The start time of the learning solution is at beginning of October (calendar week #40, tentatively Tuesday October 4, 2022). Solution would run 8-9 weeks onwards from the start date, meeting on Tuesday afternoons. Session 1: Core design concepts with MyData services 4 October, 13:00-16:00 EET In the first workshop, participants get introduced to core design concepts around MyData services and necessary elements such as identifiers, permissions and management of services in the context of the MyData Operator used in these workshops. (3h) Session 2: Ideate and decide the 18 October, 13:00-16:00 EET Participants are arranged an interactive workshop to invent and nail down their hypothetical MyData use case/service for each team to prototype on given MyData operator sandbox & its documentation. (3h)There’s homework for the teams to progress their prototype on their own. Session 3: Coaching workshop 1 November 10:00-13:00 EET In the third workshop, the homework progress is checked and coached by the organising team experts. (3-4h) Session 4: Final workshop 22 November 13:00-16:30 EET The final, fourth workshop is a longer event to review the results. How to participate: The participation is free.
