Distributed Open Access Reference Citations Service

We report on the concept, progress and status of the new project Distributed Open Access Reference Citations Services, DOARC . The emphasis is to exploit especially the Open Access documents on Institutional Repositories: analyzing their reference lists for citations, analyzing the full text for research field specific two-word shingles, and use this for powerful author and user tools, one of which can be tested in a demonstrator: plotting the content affinity of scientific papers in dynamically generated graphs. Author-identification is realized by AuthorClaim .
