From e-Science to Publication@Source
No full textSelf Archiving is not yet a popular route in Chemistry. However the Comb-e-Chem e-Science programme is showing the importance of collecting and maintaining a full digitally available record of the research from laboratory through analysis to published document using the Grid. This highlights the importance of self archiving not only published documents but the data that lies behind these documents
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
The CombeChem experience
No full textThe CombeChem e-Science project's experience in data and knowledge management is briefly discussed and the important role of semantic descriptions, the central role of RDF and URI's highlighted
Physical Science Research Spaces: Key issues for science researchers
No full textThe relationship between physical science research in universities and libraries is discussed looking at issues raised by the location and nature of the research, details how and where do we find, access and interact with, research materials? How do we deposit research data (and what do we deposit) and the influence of the growing dominance of the e-World
From open access to intelligently accessible data in Open Notebooks
No full textProgress in science depends on access to results and data from earlier work. E-Science and Web 2.0 have in principle provided new tools to enable the communication of data that underpins scientific discovery. Professor Frey will explore the ways in which the open agenda serves to improve productivity and reduce and manage uncertainty and consider if “Open Science” was and is an inevitable outcome of the e-Science programme”
Fair enough: a sideways look
No full textEven when we all agree to make data usefully available with our publications, the problem remains of how to do this in a reasonable and sensible manner. Just what do we need to do? I suggest a change of perspective: what would you wish other authors had done to make their data easily useful to us
