This document is the proposal for the TRACKOER project that is supported by the JISC Open Educational Resources Rapid Innovation programme (OERRI). In TRACKOER we are developing potential solutions to how to keep track of content in the open. We are looking both at ways to follow content as it moves from one server to another and then gets reused, and at how to capture other changes that people may make with cut and paste editing. The rationale for the project is to understand whether content gets reused but it also offers a model that could help track other activity around shared content.

My repository is being aggregated: a blessing or a curse?petrknoth
Usage statistics are frequently used by repositories to justify their value to the management who
decide about the funding to support the repository infrastructure. Another reason for collecting usage statistics at
repositories is the increased use of webometrics in the process of assessing the impact of publications and
researchers. Consequently, one of the worries repositories sometimes have about their content being aggregated
is that they feel aggregations have a detrimental effect on the accuracy of statistics they collect. They believe
that this potential decrease in reported usage can negatively influence the funding provided by their own
institutions. This raises the fundamental question of whether repositories should allow aggregators to harvest
their metadata and content. In this paper, we discuss the benefits of allowing content aggregations harvest
repository content and investigate how to overcome the drawbacks.
CORE: Aggregating and Enriching Content to Support Open Accesspetrknoth
The last 10 years have seen a massive increase in the amounts of Open Access publications available in journals and institutional repositories. The existence of large volumes of free state-of-the-art knowledge online has the potential to provide huge savings and benefits in many fields. However, in order to fully leverage this knowledge, it is necessary to develop systems that (a) make it easy for users to access, discover and explore this knowledge, (b) that lower the barriers to the development of systems and services building on top of this knowledge and (c) that enable to freely analyse how this knowledge is organised and used. In this paper, we argue why these requirements should be fulfilled and show that current systems do not satisfy them. We also present CORE, a large-scale Open Access aggregation system, outline its functionality and architecture and demonstrate how it addresses the above mentioned needs and how it can be applied to benefit the whole ecosystem including institutional repositories, researchers, general public and government.
Semantometrics: Towards Fulltext-based Research Evaluationpetrknoth
Over the recent years, there has been a growing interest in developing new scientometric measures that could go beyond the traditional citation-based bibliometric measures. This interest is motivated on one side by the wider availability or even emergence of new information evidencing research performance, such as article downloads, views and twitter mentions, and on the other side by the continued frustrations and problems surrounding the application of citation-based metrics to evaluate research performance in practice.
Semantometrics are a new class of research evaluation metrics which build on the premise that full text is needed to assess the value of a publication. This talk will present the results of an investigation into the properties of the semantometric contribution measure (Knoth & Herrmannova, 2014). We will provide a comparative evaluation of the contribution measure with traditional bibliometric measures based on citation counting.

Workshop title: Building a global knowledge commons - ramping up repositories to support widespread change in the ecosystem
Workshop abstract:
The extensive international deployment of repository systems in higher education and research institutions, as well as scholarly communities, provides the foundation for a distributed, globally networked infrastructure for scholarly communication. This distributed network of repositories can and should be a powerful tool to promote the transformation of the scholarly communication ecosystem. However, repository platforms are still using technologies and protocols designed almost twenty years ago, before the boom of the web and the dominance of Google, social networking, semantic web and ubiquitous mobile devices. In April 2016, the Confederation of Open Access Repositories (COAR) launched a working group to help identify new functionalities and technologies for repositories and develop a road map for their adoption. For the past several months, the group has been working to define a vision for repositories and sketch out the priority user stories and scenarios that will help guide the development of new functionalities. The results of this work will be available in the summer of 2017.
This workshop will present the functionalities and technologies for the next generation of repositories and reflect on how these functionalities will be adopted into the existing software platforms. In addition, participants will discuss the important implications for the network layers, and how repositories will uniformly interact with the networks to provide value added services on top of their content.

COAR Next Generation Repositories WG - Text mining and Recommender system sto...petrknoth
One of the key aims of the COAR NGR group is to help us to overcome the challenges that still make it difficult to move beyond repositories as document silos. The group wants to see a globally interoperable network of repositories and global services built on top of repositories fulfilling the expectations of users in the 21st century. During this talk, I will address two use cases the COAR NGR working group aims to enable: text and data mining and recommender systems.
Towards effective research recommender systems for repositoriespetrknoth
In this paper, we argue why and how the integration of recommender systems for research can enhance the functionality and user experience in repositories. We present the latest technical innovations in the CORE Recommender, which provides research article recommendations across the global network of repositories and journals. The CORE Recommender has been recently redeveloped and released into production in the CORE system and has also been deployed in several third-party repositories. We explain the design choices of this unique system and the evaluation processes we have in place to continue raising the quality of the provided recommendations. By drawing on our experience, we discuss the main challenges in offering a state-of-the-art recommender solution for repositories. We highlight two of the key limitations of the current repository infrastructure with respect to developing research recommender systems: 1) the lack of a standardised protocol and capabilities for exposing anonymised user-interaction logs, which represent critically important input data for recommender systems based on collaborative filtering and 2) the lack of a voluntary global sign-on capability in repositories, which would enable the creation of personalised recommendation and notification solutions based on past user interactions.
Cloud web scale discovery services landscape an overviewNikesh Narayanan
Abstract
The impact of Internet and Google like search engines radically influenced the information behavior of Net Generation users. They expect same environment in library services such that all their required information make available in a single set of results through unified search across all the available resources. Libraries have been striving to respond to this challenge for years. Until recently, federated search technology of the past decade was the better attempt in this area to meet these user expectations. But federated search solution is marked by the drawbacks of its slowness as it searches each database on the fly. New Generation cloud based Library Web scale discovery technology is a promising entrant in this landscape. This Paper attempts to provide a comprehensive overview of Library Web Scale Discovery solutions by depicting various facets of Web Scale Discovery solutions such as its importance to Library field, their possible role as the starting point for research, content coverage, and finally analyses the competition at the discovery front by comparing the services of major players. The comparative analysis shows that all the major service providers are extending competitive features and services, but varies in some areas and the adoption choice depends on the concerned library’s preferences and the cost involved.
This work presents a data architecture based on semantic web technologies that support to the inclusion of open materials in massive online courses. The framework provides transparent access to RDF data sources for Open Educational Resources stored in OpenCourseWare repositories.

Qui Bono? Cumulative advantage in open access publishingpetrknoth
We identify whether barriers related to accessing research literature, such as being located at an institution with limited access to non-OA literature, affect the citation behaviour of scholars. Question 1: Do scholars located in less developed or at less prestigious institutions rely (consume) more OA because their access to subscription literature is limited?
Question 2: Do those who benefit from OA also produce more OA or are production and consumption independent?

OAI Identifiers: Decentralised PIDs for Research Outputs in Repositoriespetrknoth
An OAI (Open Archives Initiative) identifier is a unique identifier of a metadata record. OAI identifiers are used in the context of repositories using the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH), however, the process by which they are assigned can be, in principle, used more broadly elsewhere.
In comparison to DOIs, OAI identifiers are registered in a distributed rather than centralised manner and there is therefore no cost for minting them. OAI identifiers are persistent identifiers in repositories that declare their level of support for deleted documents in the deletedRecord element of the Identify response as persistent. CORE recommends repositories to provide this persistent level of support.
OAI Identifiers are viable PIDs for repositories that can be, as opposed to DOIs, minted in a distributed fashion and cost-free, and which can be resolvable directly to the repository rather than to the publisher.
This approach has the potential to increase the importance of repositories in the process of disseminating knowledge. CORE provides a global OAI Resolver built on top of the CORE research outputs aggregation system.
Tracking compliance of the REF2021 policy with the CORE Repository Dashboardpetrknoth

Getting access to the Dashboard
Despite being controversial, research metrics are becoming a key component of research evaluation processes globally. Nevertheless, accessing research metrics to support these processes in a timely manner is not a straightforward task, as it requires either having access to expensive commercial solutions such as Elsevier SciVal or Clarivate Analytics' InCites, or having substantial knowledge of existing APIs and data sources as well as the ability and skills needed to analyse large amounts of raw scholarly data in-house. This is especially the case on a department or institutional level where large amounts of data have to be aggregated prior to analysis. To alleviate this problem we have designed and prototyped CORE Analytics Dashboard – a tool for analytical evaluation of research outputs of universities. The aim of the CORE Analytics Dashboard is to help universities analyse their performance using a variety of metrics captured from openly available data sources, including citation counts and social media metrics, and to help them compare their performance with other institutions. This paper presents the motivation behind developing this dashboard and its main features.
Analysing the performance of open access papers discovery toolspetrknoth
Open Access discovery tools aim to locate freely available copies of research papers which might be behind the paywall on a publisher’s website. Our study provides a large scale quantitative performance comparison of several OA discovery tools on a randomly selected sample of 100k DOIs from CrossRef. We use the acquired knowledge from this analysis to build a new discovery tool - CORE Discovery.
Assessing Compliance with the UK REF 2021 Open Access Policypetrknoth
The recent increase in Open Access (OA) policies has brought forth important questions concerning the effect these policies have on the practice of publishing Open Access. In particular, is there evidence to support that mandating OA increases the proportion of OA outputs (in other words, do authors comply with relevant policies)? Furthermore, does mandating OA reduce the time from acceptance to the public availability of research outputs, and can compliance with OA mandates be effectively tracked? This work studies compliance with the UK REF 2021 Open Access policy. We use data from CrossRef and from CORE to create a dataset containing 1.6 million publications. We show that after the introduction of the UK OA policy, the proportion of OA research outputs in the UK has increased significantly, and the time lag between the acceptance of a publication and its Open Access availability has decreased, although there are significant differences in compliance between different repositories. We have developed a tool that can be used to assess publications' compliance with the policy based on a list of DOIs.
Integrating research indicators for use in the repositories infrastructure petrknoth
The current repository infrastructure, which consists of thousands of repositories, does not make effective use of research indicators largely exploited by commercial players in the area. Research indicators, including citation counts and Mendeley reader counts, enable the development and improvement of functionality researchers use on a daily basis. For example, they make it possible to increase the performance in information retrieval and recommendation tasks and serve as an enabler for the development of research analytics & metrics functionality, such as the analysis of research trends or collaboration networks. We believe that there is a strong case for making a better use of these indicators within the repositories infrastructure to improve the functionality of services users rely on.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Why from OA metadata to OA content?
• Free online availability of research outputs (not metadata of
research outputs) is the main goal of open access (OA)
• Repositories are one of the recommended ways to achieve this
(BOAI,2002).
• Despite large amount of OA content already available online
(Laakso & Bjork, 2012), OA content is not necessarily easily
discoverable (Morrisson, 2012; Konkiel, 2012).
• Often available, but difficult to find …
• Inhibiting the OA impact – accessibility, discoverability, reuse …
• Discoverability of OA content on the Web can be dramatically
increased by adopting two simple principles!

The primary purpose of repositories
• Institutional repositories (IRs) serve a number of purposes; such
collecting and curating digital outputs, providing statistics,
research excellence, etc.
• The primary goal of repositories is to open and disseminate
research outputs to a worldwide audience (Crow, 2002) –
SPARC’s position paper on the case for institutional repositories.
6. 6/31
SPARC’s position paper on IRs
“For the repository to provide access to the broader research
community, users outside the university must be able to find and
retrieve information from the repository. Therefore, institutional
repository systems must be able to support interoperability in order
to provide access via multiple search engines and other discovery
tools. An institution does not necessarily need to implement
searching and indexing functionality to satisfy this demand: it could
simply maintain and expose metadata, allowing other services to
harvest and search the content. This simplicity lowers the barrier to
repository operation for many institutions, as it only requires a file
system to hold the content and the ability to create and share
metadata with external systems.”

COAR: About harvesting and aggregations …
“Each individual repository is of limited value for research: the real
power of Open Access lies in the possibility of connecting and tying
together repositories, which is why we need interoperability. In
order to create a seamless layer of content through connected
repositories from around the world, Open Access relies on
interoperability, the ability for systems to communicate with each
other and pass information back and forth in a usable format.
Interoperability allows us to exploit today's computational power so
that we can aggregate, data mine, create new tools and services,
and generate new knowledge from repository content.’’
[COAR manifesto]
8. 8/31
We need OA to content (not just metadata)
• Repositories (even the most prominent) often seen by
aggregation systems as large metadata.
• OA to metadata is not disruptive. Little difference to the
traditional publishing model.

10. 10/31
Study
• 83 repositories (mainly EPrints with pdf research outputs)
• 1,461,016 metadata records
• Ratio of metadata to content
• Data acquired from CORE (Knoth & Zdrahal, 2012)
13. 13/31
Why is this a problem?
• Lower accessibility of papers (we have them, but cannot find
them)
• Text-mining
• Cannot monitor growth
• Loosing a strong argument for the adoption of OA!

15. 15/31
OAI-PMH and content referencing
• OAI-PMH supports representing metadata in multiple formats,
but at a minimum repositories must be able to return records
with metadata expressed in the Dublin Core format (OAI-PMH
v2.0, 2008)
• If repositories want to satisfy the SPARC guidelines (Crow, 2002),
they must provide a link to the content as part of the exposed
metadata.
16. 16/31
OAI-PMH and content referencing
The Open Research Online repository (Eprints) links directly to the
resource from metadata.
Cranfield repository (DSpace) identifies the resource by providing a
link to a page from which the resource (if available) can be accessed.
17. 17/31
OAI-PMH and content referencing
The OAI-PMH specification states on this topic that:
“The nature of a resource identifier is outside the scope of the OAI-
PMH. To facilitate access to the resource associated with harvested
metadata, repositories should use an element in metadata records
to establish a linkage between the record (and the identifier of its
item) and the identifier (URL, URN, DOI, etc.) of the associated
resource. The mandatory Dublin Core format provides the identifier
element that should be used for this purpose.”
18. 18/31
OAI-PMH and content referencing
• What is an identifier of the associated resource?
Is a splash page an identifier? According to OAI-PMH examples it is:
<dc:identifier>http://arXiv.org/abs/cs/0112017</dc:identifier>
• The standard is pretty weak on this aspect …

2. The bleak truth about availability of OA metadata vs content
3. Content referencing practises in repositories
4. Two principles to increase visibility of OA content
20. 20/31
The principles of the principles
• Pragmatic rather than exciting.
• Generating maximum benefit for a minimum investment.
• Deliberately use current standards to minimise adoption time.
• Respecting differences across systems and backwards
compatibility.
• Emphasizes the need for easy to use compliance mechanisms to
assist repository managers in ensuring systems interoperability.
21. 21/31
Principle 1 – Content referencing
Open repositories should always establish a link from the metadata
record to the item the metadata record describes using a
dereferencable identifier pointing to the version held in the
repository. The dereferencable identifier should be provided in the
appropriate metadata element in the used metadata format (i.e.
dc:identifier in the case of Dublin Core).
22. 22/31
Implications: Principle 1 – Content referencing
• Repositories can use different standards to deliver metadata over
OAI-PMH (DC, METS, MPEG-21 DIDL)
• Identifier must resolve (be actionable) to the object it identifies
• In the case of DC, if more identifiers are present, use the first
identifier as the identifier of the object
• Should resolve to the version of the object in the local repository
• Similarity with RIOXX identifier field
• The principle is easily applicable in the OA domain: each item can
be freely resolved
23. 23/31
Open access statistics and principle 1
• Only dereferencable
items are OA
• Increases stats acuracy
• Avoids anecdotal
situations (e.g. 23,380
Dark Items)
24. 24/31
Principle 2 – Content accessibility to machines
Open repositories must provide universal access to machines with
the same level of access as humans have. It is the role of open
repositories to allow machines harvest the entire content of the
repository in a reasonable time to enable harvesting systems to
acquire and maintain up-to-date information about the repository
content.
25. 25/31
Example from Arxiv.org
• Googlebot: unrestricted
• Yahoo/MSN: can
reharvest in 6 months
• Researchers: access
denied
26. 26/31
Implications: Principle 2 – Content accessibility to machines
• Accessibility of repository content by machines
• Enabling reuse through new services, such as those relying on
text-mining
• Open Repositories should not discriminate, except for abusive
behavior
• Presumption of innocence
28. 28/31
Conclusions
• Proportion of OA content that can be harvested is fairly low in
comparison to metadata
• Inhibiting the benefits of OA
• Two principles:
1) Dereferencable identifiers - Open Repositories provide open
access to content and not just meatadata
2) Machine access – Open Repositories should provide free access
to content (for anybody, but mainly researchers)
• Compliance validation tools are needed

Editor's Notes
In this paper, we use the term institutional repositories (which are the main interest of the Open Repositories conference), to refer also to subject-based repositories or archives or systems for depositing research outputs used by open access publishers. As a result, the conclusions of this paper and recommendations are equally valid for both the green (self-archiving) and gold (OA publishing) routes to OA.

It will not be possible transfer to an OA culture unless we change the environment so that there will be clear benefits for researchers to participate in OA. These benefits should be technical rather than political.
