Stress-Testing General Purpose Digital Library Software
Bainbridge, David; Witten, Ian H.; Boddie, Stefan; Thompson, John (2009)DSpace, Fedora, and Greenstone are three widely used open source digital library systems. In this paper we report on scalability tests performed on these tools by ourselves and others. These range from repositories populated ... -
Superimposed Image Description and Retrieval for Fish Species Identification
Murthy, Uma; Fox, Edward A.; Chen, Yinlin; Hallerman, Eric; Da Silva Torres, Ricardo; Ramos, Evandro J.; Falcao, Tiago R.C. (2009)Fish species identification is critical to the study of fish ecology and management of fisheries. Traditionally, dichotomous keys are used for fish identification.

Supporting Effective User Navigation in Digital Documents
Pearson, Jennifer (2009)Electronic documents such as PDFs are a large part of the growing digital age and will no doubt form a substantial portion of any paperless office. The harsh truth however, is that electronic documents differ greatly from ... -
Supporting the Creation of Scholarly Bibliographies by Communities through Online Reputation Based Social Collaboration
Alhoori, Hamed; Alvarez, Omar; Furuta, Richard; Muñiz, Miguel; Urbina, Eduardo (2009)Bibliographic digital libraries play a significant role in conducting research and, in the past few years, have started to move from closed to more open social platforms. However, in this, they have faced challenges (e.g., ... -
SyGAR – A Synthetic Data Generator for Evaluating Name Disambiguation Methods
Ferreira, Anderson A.; Goncalves, Marcos Andre; Almeida, Jussara M.; Laender, Alberto H.F.; Veloso, Adriano (2009)Name ambiguity in the context of bibliographic citations is one of the hardest problems currently faced by the digital library community.
