Toward open citations: Why, how, and when?

Ludo Waltman

Ludo Waltman discusses open citations, including arguments for why they are important, how initiatives like Initiative for Open Citations (I4OC) are working to implement them, and how different stakeholders can support open citations. Key points include that open citations improve transparency and reproducibility in research evaluation and scientometrics. I4OC is working with Crossref to make citation metadata openly available, though large publishers like Elsevier still do not support open citations. Countries like Sweden and the Netherlands have taken a leading role in supporting open citations through signing an open letter in support of I4OC.

To write an effective lab report, address six key questions about the topic and methodology. A typical lab report includes a title, abstract, introduction, methods, results, discussion, and conclusion sections. The introduction should provide context about previous related work and how the current study extends existing knowledge. Data and results must be presented honestly without omitting negative findings. Lab reports aim to share information with industry professionals to advance collective understanding.

Responsible use of university rankings

Ludo Waltman

1) The CWTS Leiden Ranking focuses solely on research performance and is based purely on bibliometric indicators derived from the Web of Science database, without composite scores or input from universities. 2) The 2018 edition ranked 938 universities from 55 countries that published at least 1,000 documents between 2013-2016. 3) When designing rankings, indicators should distinguish between size-dependent and size-independent metrics, universities should be consistently defined, and rankings should be transparent. Comparisons between universities require acknowledging differences between them and the uncertainty in rankings.

A golden era for Open Access or a trend towards the golden road to Open Access?

Dirk_Pieper

This document summarizes a presentation given at the 7th Munin Conference on Scientific Publishing in 2012. The presentation discusses Bielefeld University's open access strategy, including its institutional repository and publication fund. It also discusses the German Research Foundation's open access publishing program and trends in Bielefeld University's publication fund expenditures. Finally, it addresses questions around the transition to open access models and whether stakeholders are truly interested in the "golden road" of open access.

Comparing bibliographic data sources

Ludo Waltman

This document compares several bibliographic data sources and finds substantial discrepancies between them. It analyzes the coverage of publications and citations in Web of Science, Scopus, Dimensions, and Crossref. Dimensions and Scopus have the most complete coverage of publications, while Crossref is incomplete due to closed or missing citations. Pairwise comparisons reveal millions of citations that are unique to each source. The causes of discrepancies include reference inaccuracies, versioning issues, and different matching algorithms. Examples demonstrate problems caused by group authors and supplements in Web of Science.

How the Library Put QR Codes in the Science Building

Kristen Yarmey

The library placed QR codes around a new science building to provide students and faculty mobile access to library resources. Codes were placed on professor's doors, classrooms, and study rooms to link to databases, research guides, the catalog, and other academic materials from mobile devices. The library obtained permissions, designed templates, created codes in bulk, and plans to recruit faculty involvement, develop more pages, and integrate the codes into the university system while addressing accessibility issues.

Ranking universities responsibly

Ludo Waltman

- The document discusses the CWTS Leiden Ranking, which ranks universities based on bibliometric indicators derived from publication and citation data. - It describes the methodology used, including the use of fractional counting of co-authored publications and counting highly cited publications rather than total citations. - New in 2019 are indicators on open access publishing rates and gender balance among authors. - The ranking includes 963 universities from 56 countries that meet selection criteria around publication volume and type. - It emphasizes the need for transparency in rankings and acknowledging their limitations, as different rankings may produce different results depending on methodology.

Bibliometrics in the library, putting science in to practice

Wouter Gerritsma

Wageningen University & Research Library has implemented bibliometric analysis services using their metadata repository Wageningen Yield coupled with Web of Science citation data. They determine advanced bibliometric indicators such as relative impact and crown indicators for research groups undergoing external reviews. The library plays a key role in managing the metadata, citation data, and bibliometric analyses to provide transparency and institutionalize bibliometric knowledge. This helps raise awareness of publication and citation practices to advise researchers and assess the institution's research.

Bibliometrics in practice: how to generate reports for institutions - v2.0 / ...

Torres Salinas

In an institutional context and at a professional level, one of our main tasks is to carry out bibliometric reports. These studies are essential because they are used by managers to make decisions (distribution of funds, recruitment of personnel, planning of research lines, etc.). In this talk we will explain how to make a global bibliometric report of an institution, we use as a case study the University of Granada. We focus on these topics: 1) General considerations: target, selection of indicators, objectives, etc.); 2) what sources of information can be used; 3) How to contextualize and interpret the indicators; 4) How to compare the results with other institutions (Benchmarking); 5) How to make graphs and tables; and 6) Dissemination of results and data.

UKSG: connecting the knowledge community

Libraries are increasingly being called upon to extend access to their online resources to users beyond their core constituencies. Every institution has its own unique arrangements, but they all raise similar questions for the library: are these users included under our existing licences or are separate ones needed? Will we have to pay more, and if so, how much? Where can I go for advice? Learn about the guidelines Jisc Collections has developed, and hear from two librarians who have successfully implemented their own solutions: Anna Franca on KCL’s work with an NHS Trust and Ruth Dale on Nottingham’s overseas campuses.

Analysis of Bibliometrics information for selecting the best field of study

Nader Ale Ebrahim

Bibliometrics can be defined as the statistical analysis of publications. Bibliometrics has focused on the quantitative analysis of citations and citation counts which is complex. It is so complex and specialized that personal knowledge and experience are insufficient tools for understanding trends for making decisions. We need tools for analysis of Bibliometrics information for select the best field of study with promising enough attention. This presentation will provide tools to discover the new trends in our field of study in order to select an area for research and publication which promising the highest research impact.

Nader Ale Ebrahim

Publication in a peer-reviewed journal is the obvious goal of most researchers to reach others in the field, advancing knowledge and encouraging communication between groups with similar research interest. One of the most important and possibly the least well understood aspects of the publication process is the choice of a suitable journal that is likely to improve your research visibility and impact. For instance, publishing your article in an Open Access journal means that more people are likely to see it, simply because more people will be able to access it. So, the greater visibility achieved with OA may allow you to reach more impact and potential collaborators easily. In this presentation, I introduce some of the most important criteria to keep in mind when choosing a journal that is a good match for your research and promise higher research impact.

Implementation erp universities 140515 csf revised abstract

Michael Le Duc

This document summarizes a case study on implementing an ERP system in university business education curriculums. The study identified four main critical success factors: (I) having champions to support the implementation, (II) creating networking opportunities like user groups, (III) developing the curriculum around the ERP system, and (IV) fostering an environment of learning and innovation. These factors align with five of the ten typical critical success factors for ERP implementations in businesses. The case study provides insights into best practices for universities looking to adopt ERP systems in their programs.

Implementation erp universities 2013 abstract

Michael Le Duc

This case study examines how a global software corporation supports universities in successfully implementing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems into business education programs. The researcher analyzed online information, meeting notes, and documents from 2007-present. While critical success factors for ERP implementation in businesses include management support, end-users, and change management, universities differ in that professors have high autonomy. For ERP implementation in university courses, key factors are having champions, networking opportunities, available curriculum, opportunities for research/publication, evaluation, and planning. Barriers to adoption in universities include issues with acceptance, lack of cloud solutions, complexity, insufficient resources and materials, and lack of interest or cooperation.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...

Alex Pruden

Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security. Paper Link: https://eprint.iacr.org/2024/257

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their Mainframe

Precisely

Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market. Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
