We have a demo (and a journal article) coming up at the conference FORCE2015 in January where we present a solution to this problem based on three different standards-based solutions using metadata and a persistent time-stamped identifier (DOI) assigned to the file(set). See http://doi.org/10042/a3v2b for demos. The dataDOI can hence be cited in the manner conventional for referencing journal articles, and has the further advantage that the system allows searching in various ways, ie http://search.datacite.org/ui?q=InChIKey=LQPOSWKBQVCBKS-PGMHMLKASA-N or http://search.datacite.org/ui?q=alternateIdentifier:InChIKey\:* or http://search.datacite.org/ui?q=has_media:true&fq=prefix:10.14469 (the prefix identifies the registered site)
Unfortunately the Figshare repository specifically does not currently support the requisite standards. In our case they were all implemented in a Dspace repository supporting the required standards. In general, we think that the “hard coded” non-persistent URL based method of retrieving files from remote locations (such as used by Jmol with eg PubChem, PDB etc) should be replaced in the future by DOI based methods which also associate and export rich metadata with the object. If anyone wants more details, do please contact me.
