LCPD 2013 - Linking and Contextualizing Publications and Datasets: Paving the way towards Modern Scholarly Communication (LCPD 2013)

The goal of this workshop is to provide researchers and practitioners in the fields of Digital Libraries, e-Science, and e-Research, with a forum where they can constructively explore foundational, organizational and systemic challenges in contexts having publishing, interlinking, preservation, discovery, access, and reuse of publications and datasets as focal points. It expects to contribute to the actual picture of the state of the art approaches and solutions that researchers and practitioners active in these fields have investigated and realized.
Workshop topics
The workshop welcomes submissions reporting on theoretical, systemic, and foundational work targeting popular topics of linking and contextualizing datasets and publications. The topics of this workshop are of interest to, but not limited to, the following research avenues:
Metadata formats for publications and datasets: interlinking or contextualizing research outputs.
Metadata access services: exporting/discovering metadata to facilitate interlinking or contextualizing research outputs.
Data models expressing relationships between publications, datasets and other information apt for re-use, contextualization, etc.
Aggregation services: robust and scalable collection, integration, storage, interlinking, and visualization of heterogeneous objects and metadata from publication, dataset, and contextual content data sources
Linking and contextualization services: processing/mining interlinked objects and metadata relative for enrichment, disambiguation, annotation
Future publication models and services: novel concepts and management of "enhanced publications", "research objects", "executable papers".
