Scope and Motivation

  • members of the academic community have increasingly turned to digital libraries

to follow the latest work of other members within their research community;

  • milion of mobile users
  • promote the development of mobile applications using existing resources
slide-4
SLIDE 4

Available Resources

  • digital libraries:

○ ACM Portal ○ Google Scholar ○ DBLP

  • Web Services
  • Exposed API’s
  • Open Data
  • Linked Open Data

DBLP - Digital Bibliography and Library Project

DBLP is a computer science bibliography website hosted at University Trier, in Germany.

  • started in 1993 as a experimental server meant to test web technology
  • DBLP dataset is available from the location http://dblp.uni-trier.de/xml/dblp.xml
  • contains all the bibliographic records
  • development based on ad-hoc solutions
  • insufficient documentation

DBLP Metadata

DBLP distinguishes between eight different types of entries:

  • article
  • book
  • in proceedings
  • in collection
  • master’s thesis
  • ph.d thesis
  • procedings
  • www

DBPL provides various medata files for each: author, title, pages, volume, publisher, year, journal.

Proposed Approach

  • "migrate" web digital libraries to mobile using web services and exposed API's
  • create web services for your data
  • create API for your data
  • create documentation for the community
  • create a prototype for Android using DBLP exposed API

AgileDBLP Protorype

Implementation details:

  • used DBLP exposed API (xml/json)
  • custom queries for google images (used for author profile) and DBLP dataset
  • Android SDK

Use cases:

  • search by author name
  • search article by title
  • view author profile: articles, conferences, coauthors

Conclusion

  • use existing datasets
  • use exposed APIs and web services
  • easy and quick development for mobile applications
  • contributes to comunity

Future Work

  • develop a scientific paper aggregator (DBLP, Google Scholar and ACM Digital

Library)

  • display bibliometrics indicators in author profile
  • improve bibliometrics indicators (detecting ambiguous author names and self-

citations)

  • extend the prototype
