Paper Abstract:
|
Sharing of bibliographic information is very important in a research community. SocioBiblog is a semantic blogging
system that provides a decentralized environment to share bibliographic information. It uses the SWRC ontology for
adding metadata about publications in blogs and aggregates publications from the social network neighborhood and coauthors
of the researcher. RSS aggregation has been extended to handle embedded publication metadata in BuRST feeds.
The FOAF network of the researchers is crawled to gather FOAF profiles for discovering aggregation feeds.
Interoperability with other systems has been maintained by adopting standard formats. The aggregated collections may be
searched and filtered flexibly by defining metadata criteria. The aggregated and filtered results can be redistributed as
new feeds which can further be used by other systems. Thus, a decentralized ecosystem can be formed where each unit
can publish, aggregate and redistribute information. |
