So, I cleaned the abstract (I realised I messed it up a little last time) and I report it here in the form I plan to submit it tomorrow. Thanks again for the contributions and hints, the call for the examples stays open (but it depends whether the contribution is accepted or not). I'll wait tomorrow morning (CET time) before submitting, so you have time till today COB to further comment. Cheers Marco Title IVOA standards for multi-messenger and time-domain data exploitation Abstract Discovering and accessing information provided by distributed facilities, space or ground based, and numerical simulations and models, requires a community-based shared approach to integrate and homogenise this information into a usable and coherent set of resources. The International Virtual Observatory Alliance (IVOA) is a community driven open organisation aimed at discussing and developing interoperability standards that promote an ecosystem of services and tools. IVOA standards cover most of the FAIR principles' requirements, providing a solid basis for enabling FAIR practices in astrophysics. The IVOA vision is that astronomical datasets and other resources should work as a seamless whole to empower scientific discovery. Support for multi-messenger and time-domain astronomy is one of the primary science drivers for the development of IVOA standards. The importance of support for time-domain and multi-messenger astronomy was emphasized in the US "Pathways to Discovery in Astronomy and Astrophysics for the 2020s" and the EU ASTRONET "Strategic plan for European astronomy". This presentation describes the development of interoperable standards in this area of astrophysics, describes these standards in the context of the overall support for astrophysics in the IVOA, and provides examples of already operating services and solutions in multi-messenger and time-domain astronomy leveraging them.
