The technological evolution of the library in the academic environment brought a lot of information and documents that are available to access, but these systems do not always have mechanisms to search in an integrated way the relevant…
Numerous systems for dissemination, retrieval, and archiving of documents have been developed in the past. Those systems often focus on one of these aspects and are hard to extend and combine. Typically, the transmission protocols, query…
Todays students are encouraged to study and develop expertise in more than one national academic environment. As a matter of fact, their educational activities inevitably occur in a variety of academic settings and even span several years.…
This chapter outlines how search engine technology can be used in online public access library catalogs (OPACs) to help improve users experiences, to identify users intentions, and to indicate how it can be applied in the library context,…
Research organisations and their research outputs have been growing considerably in the past decades. This large body of knowledge attracts various stakeholders, e.g., for knowledge sharing, technology transfer, or potential collaborations.…
Research-computing continues to play an ever increasing role in academia. Access to computing resources, however, varies greatly between institutions. Sustaining the growing need for computing skills and access to advanced…
"Academia 2.0" is a proposal to organize scientific publishing around true peer-to-peer distributed dissemination channels and eliminate the traditional role of the academic publisher. This model will be first presented at the 2014 workshop…
Information and knowledge in exchange in public networks is a crucial challenge that needs to be overcome in order to consolidate the benefits associated with such structures. We study the impact of the nature of the information exchanged…
Centralized and distributed systems are two main approaches to organizing ICT infrastructure, each with its pros and cons. Centralized systems concentrate resources in one location, making management easier but creating single points of…
This work presents the architecture used in the ongoing OntologyNavigator project. It is a research tool to help advanced learners to find adapted IT papers to create scientific bibliographies. The purpose is the use of an IT representation…
The expanding need for an open information sharing infrastructure to promote scholarly communication led to the pioneering establishment of arXiv.org, now maintained by the Cornell University Library. To be sustainable, the repository…
The main aim of this study was to assess and evaluate user satisfaction with library resources and services among library users associated with Solapur University. The current research shows the level of users satisfaction with different…
Bibliometric techniques are not yet widely used to enhance retrieval processes in digital libraries, although they offer value-added effects for users. In this paper we will explore how statistical modelling of scholarship, such as…
Reading plays a vital role in updating the researchers on recent developments in the field, including but not limited to solutions to various problems and collaborative studies between disciplines. Prior studies identify reading patterns to…
Distributed computing platforms provide a robust mechanism to perform large-scale computations by splitting the task and data among multiple locations, possibly located thousands of miles apart geographically. Although such distribution of…
The organizational knowledge is one of the most important and valuable assets of organizations. In such environment, organizations with broad, specialized and up-to-date knowledge, adequately using knowledge resources, will be more…
Meta-learning researchers face two fundamental issues in their empirical work: prototyping and reproducibility. Researchers are prone to make mistakes when prototyping new algorithms and tasks because modern meta-learning methods rely on…
Within the documentary system domain, the integration of thesauri for indexing and retrieval information steps is usual. In libraries, documents own rich descriptive information made by librarians, under descriptive notice based on Rameau…
In this article are discussed some problems in developing software related to the management of information flows. We presented the basic stages in their development. We bold a methodology for conceptual modeling and design of information…
With the shifting focus of organizations and governments towards digitization of academic and technical documents, there has been an increasing need to use this reserve of scholarly documents for developing applications that can facilitate…
