Paper Abstract:
|
Sharing bibliographic information is important in a research community. We propose a decentralized
way for this over the social network of researchers by aggregation of information through ones social
links. We have experimentally verified that highly relevant information can be obtained from direct
social links. Blogs provide an easy platform for such social information sharing. Semantic blogging can
enhance this with standard structure needed for bibliographic information. We have implemented a
semantic blogging prototype called SocioBiblog for this purpose. It uses the SWRC ontology for
publication metadata and aggregates publications from the social network neighborhood and co-authors
of each researcher. RSS aggregation has been extended to handle the embedded publication metadata.
The aggregated collections may be searched and filtered flexibly by metadata criteria. The results can be
redistributed as new feeds which can further be integrated, mixed and reused by other systems. A
decentralized ecosystem is formed where each unit can publish, aggregate and redistribute information. |
