        <![CDATA[<p>
Thank you for using DICE.<br>
In order to better understand how our services are being utilized, we have now clarified the rules for acknowledging, citing, and reporting when you use our services.<br>
Specifically, we will be requiring the following when you use DICE. We will be revising our Terms of Use accordingly.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight:bold;">(1) Acknowledment</span><br>
When publishing research results obtained through the use of any DICE service or its data, an acknowledgment should be included.<br>
Example: <a href="https://dice.nims.go.jp/using/" target="_blank">https://dice.nims.go.jp/using/</a><br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight:bold;">(2) Citation</span><br>
When citing any DICE service or its data in a paper or any scholarly output, you should cite the relevant paper(s), DOI(s), or URL as specified in the list below.<br>
DICE citation for each service: <a href="https://dice.nims.go.jp/using/#list" target="_blank">https://dice.nims.go.jp/using/#list</a><br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight:bold;">(3) Usage report</span><br>
Once a year, we will ask you to report on how you have been using our data, through our online form which should take about five minutes to complete.
<br>
- Purpose of use<br>
- How happy you are with DICE<br>
- Results obtained from DICE (if you can share it with us)<br>
- Requests<br>
We plan to send out the forms every February (or at some other time as specified by each service).<br>
<br>
The contents collected in the above manner will be compiled and analyzed in a form that does not identify individuals, and will be made public as a list of usage results.
</p>

<br>
<h5>Applicable services [as of August 1, 2024]</h5>

        <![CDATA[<p>National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) has moved the system infrastructure of the materials data platform "DICE" to the public cloud and added a system RDE that automatically structures and stores research data, thereby which has greatly enhanced the system's ability to collect and accumulate data from users nationwide. In addition, NIMS Materials Database "MatNavi" was improved to enhance user convenience greatly.</p>

<br />
<h5>New service: RDE (data storage and sharing service)</h5>
<p>The DICE has been publishing and operating the NIMS Materials Database (MatNavi) and the Materials Data Repository (MDR), and now a new data storage and sharing service (RDE) has been added. (<a href="https://dice.nims.go.jp/services/RDE/" target="_blank">https://dice.nims.go.jp/services/RDE/</a>)<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold;">● What RDE can do</span><br />
<span style="padding-left: 10px;">- Quick online registration of research data generated daily in laboratories.</span><br />
<span style="padding-left: 10px;">- Registered data is automatically structured and stored in a reusable format.</span><br />
<span style="padding-left: 10px;">- Accumulated data can be used in the research group's dedicated area or shared with other research groups. Furthermore, the data can be shared over a wide area.</span><br />
</p>

<h5>MatNavi is now easier to use.</h5>
<p style="padding-left: 10px;">
(1) Polymer Database (PoLyInfo) and Metallic Material Database (Kinzoku): The databases have been restructured to facilitate data management and linkage between data, and search and display screens have been improved.<br />
(2) NIMS Structural Materials Data Sheet Online: A new drawing method has been adopted, and the files can be viewed using any browser.<br />
(3) Inorganic Materials Database (AtomWork): The interface has been improved to be easier to view and use.<br />
(4) Metal Segregation Prediction System (SurfSeg) and Interface Bonding Prediction System (InterChemBond): Algorithms have been added.<br />
</p>

<h5>Centralized user authentication</h5>
<p>A new authentication system has been introduced for the purpose of linking all DICE services. By using the DICE account (common ID) granted by this system, user authentication will be centralized. Users will be able to access each DICE service with a single sign-on as long as they meet the terms of use of each service.</p>

<br />
<p>NIMS is promoting the strategic collection, accumulation, distribution, and utilization of high-quality materials data from industry and academia as a "Data Core Center" under the "Materials DX Platform Initiative" of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. We will continue to develop and expand DICE's services and strongly support data-driven materials research to be developed on a nationwide scale.</p>
