Palmer, Joy; Williams, Caroline; Walk, Paul; Kay, David; Rehberger, Dean; Hart-Davidson, Bill (2009) -
Digital Mechanism and Gear Library – Multimedia Collection of Text, Pictures and Physical Models
Brecht, Rike; Brix, Torsten; Döring, Ulf; Henkel, Veit; Krömker, Heidi; Reeßing, Michael (2009)We are presenting a digital engineering library – the Digital Mechanism and Gear Library (DMG-Lib). The existing worldwide knowledge in form of books, drawings, physical models etc. is mostly scattered, difficult to ... -
Digital Preservation and Access of Audio Heritage: a Case Study for Phonographic Discs
Canazza, Sergio; Orio, Nicola (2009)We investigate differences among the approaches to the digitization of phonographic discs, using two novel methods developed by the authors: a system for synthesizing audio signals from still images of phonographic discs and ... -
The DiSCmap Project: overview and First Results
Birrell, Duncan; Dobreva, Milena; Dunsire, Gordon; Griffiths, Jillian; Hartley, Richard; Menzies, Kathleen (2009)Traditionally, digitisation of cultural and scientific heritage material for use by the scholarly community has been led by supply rather than demand. The DiSCmap project commissioned by JISC in 2008, aimed to study what ... -
DL Education in the EU and in the US: where Are We?, Where Are We Going?
Gradman, Stefan; Saracevic, Tefko; Larsen, Ron; Casarosa, Vittore; Tammaro, Anna Maria; Aparac Jelušic, Tatjana (2009) -
Document Word Clouds: Visualising Web Documents as Tag Clouds to Aid Users in Relevance Decisions
Gottron, Thomas (2009)Information Retrieval systems spend a great effort on determining the significant terms in a document. When, instead, a user is looking at a document he cannot benefit from such information. He has to read the text to ... -
An Empirical Study of User Navigation during Document Triage
Loizides, Fernando; Buchanan, George (2009)Document triage is the moment in the information seeking process when the user first decides the relevance of a document to their information need[17]. This paper reports a study of user behaviour during document triage. ... -
eSciDoc Infrastructure: a Fedora-Based e-Research Framework
Razum, Matthias; Schwichtenberg, Frank; Wagner, Steffen; Hoppe, Michael (2009)eSciDoc is the open-source e-Research framework jointly developed by the German Max Planck Society and FIZ Karlsruhe. It consists of a generic set of basic services (“eSciDoc Infrastructure”) and various applications ... -
Evaluation in Context
Kamps, Jaap; Lalmas, Mounia; Larsen, Birger (2009)All search happens in a particular context—such as the particular collection of a digital library, its associated search tasks, and its associated users. Information retrieval researchers usually agree on the importance ... -
Exploratory Web Searching with Dynamic Taxonomies and Results Clustering
Παπαδάκος, Παναγιώτης; Κοπιδάκη, Στέλλα; Τζίτζικας, Ιωάννης; Αρμενατζόγλου, Νίκος; Tzitzikas, Yannis; Armenatzoglou, Nikos; Kopidaki, Stella; Papadakos, Panagiotis (2009)This paper proposes exploiting both explicit and mined metadata for enriching Web searching with exploration services. On-line results clustering is useful for providing users with overviews of the results and thus allowing ... -
Exploratory Web Searching with Dynamic Taxonomies, Results Clustering and Visualization
Παπαδάκος, Παναγιώτης; Papadakos, Panagiotis (2009)The general objective of this dissertation is to elaborate on methods and techniques for exploring and progressively refining large volumes of heterogeneous information, through the provision of appropriate models of ... -
Formalising a Model for Digital Rights Clearance
Prandoni, Claudio; Valentini, Marlis; Doerr, Martin (2009)Due to the increasing complexity and world-wide distribution of digital objects, identification and enforcement of digital rights have become too complex to be carried out manually. It is necessary to take into account ... -
Functional Adaptivity for Digital Library Services in e-Infrastructures: the gCube Approach
Simeoni, Fabio; Lievens, David; Candela, Leonardo; Pagano, Pasquale; Simi, Manuele (2009)We consider the problem of e-Infrastructures that wish to reconcile the generality of their services with the bespoke requirements of diverse user communities. We motivate the requirement of functional adaptivity in the ... -
Gaining Access to Decentralised Library Resources Using Location-Aware Services
Sletten Olsen, Bjarne; Sølvberg, Ingeborg T. (2009)The paper describes a prototype that enables library users to use their mobile devices to find the physical location of specific services or objects in a branch of a distributed library. It guides the users to this location ... -
A Gateway to the Knowledge in Taiwan’s Digital Archives
Hsu, Tzu-Yen; Chen, Ting-Hua; Hung, Chung-Hsi; Chen, Keh-Jiann (2009)Taiwan’s digital archives cover a broad range of cultural and natural assets. More than 2 million objects have been accumulated since the project was launched in 2002. As the number and diversity of digitised objects have ... -
Geographic Information Retrieval and Digital Libraries
Larson, Ray R. (2009)In this demonstration we will examine the effectiveness of Geographic Information Retrieval (GIR) methods in digital library interfaces. We will show how various types of information may benefit from explicit geographic ... -
A Global Approach to Digital Library Evaluation towards Quality Interoperability
Vullo, Giuseppina (2009)This paper describes some of the key research works related to my PhD thesis. The goal is the development of a global approach to digital library (DL) evaluation towards quality interoperability. DL evaluation has a vital ... -
GROBID: combining Automatic Bibliographic Data Recognition and Term Extraction for Scholarship Publications
Lopez, Patrice (2009)Based on state of the art machine learning techniques, GROBID (GeneRation Of BIbliographic Data) performs reliable bibliographic data extractions from scholar articles combined with multi-level term extractions. These two ... -
Hear It Is: enhancing Rapid Document Browsing with Sound Cues
Eslambochilar, Parisa; Buchanan, George; Loizides, Fernando (2009)Document navigation has become increasingly commonplace as the use of electronic documents has grown. Speed–Dependent Automatic Zooming (SDAZ) is one popular method for providing rapid movement within a digital text. ... -
