Dr alexander garcia (universidad politecnica de madrid)
The benefits of “ harnessing the collective intelligence” have been proven across the web e.g. Waze, Google Maps. Community based annotation is exemplary of the Web 2.0/3.0 phenomena; using the Web to “harness” the collective intelligence is central to the business models for the evolution of the Web 3.0. Within this realm, Google maps and Waze are among the most successful publicsourcing...

The new paradigms of scholarly communication, enabled at the turn of the century by emerging technologies, are expressed in many creative ways, with open repositories playing a key role.
The potential of repositories is far from being fully expressed: effective Open Access can be enhanced by integrating repositories in the daily practice of scholarly communication. Interoperability and...

Mr Andrea Bertino (Universität Göttigen)
Open Science means more than mere Open Access, and Open Access does not mean just journals. Books are the way Social Sciences and Humanities communicate, but they still are peripheral in the Open Science environment. In our vision, developing Open Science goes beyond just releasing millions of Open Access documents in silos: it means creating bridges among countries and disciplines by building...

The THOR (Technical and Human infrastructure for Open Research) project (http://project-thor.eu) is a 30-month project funded by the European Commission under the Horizon 2020 program. THOR aims to extend the integration of persistent identifiers (PIDs) into platforms, services, and workflows. The aim is not to build new, standalone services, but to work with existing systems and communities,...

Most scientific organizations have established bibliographic databases to collect and present the scholarly output generated by their researchers and research projects. Additional requirements arise from increasing OpenAccess requirements by funders more and more paired with direct data delivery (e.g. Horizon 2020). To alleviate the burden of administrative reporting JOIN² has broadened the...

In Finland, most academic journals are published by small scholarly societies. The main sources of income for the journals are usually subscriptions, society funding collected from membership fees, and government subsidy.
About 45% of the 95 Finnish journals receiving government subsidy get by with less than 10.000 euros a year, and only a handful of them have an annual budget of more than...

Mr Mahdi Moqri (University of Florida)
In the age of information, access to the basic metadata and indexing of scholarly publications is still limited and not “open”. The number of scholarly articles accessible online worldwide is estimated between 200 and 300 million. The combined metadata associated with all these articles require less than 1 Terabyte to store, which is the capacity of a single modern Hard Drive. This amount of...
