Realise e-Research through Virtual Research Environments
نویسنده
چکیده
Scientists today are tackling increasingly difficult problems. More and more advanced technologies are required to support research activities. With the development of the information technology it is now possible to perform research activities within virtual research environments (VRE). In this paper we describe a Sakaibased VRE system aiming at providing an improved platform for supporting scientists. Besides benefits from the advanced e-Learning framework, Sakai, of its collaboration tools like chat and discussion, our VRE system extends the Sakai framework by providing additional functionalities for integration of existing web components, JSR 168 portlets, and managing documents. Key–Words: Virtual research environments, e-Research, Portlets, Document management

متن کاملUsage of Ontology-Based Semantic Analysis of Complex Information Objects in Virtual Research Environments
Ontology-based method of recognition and analyzing of complex information objects through the virtual research environments is proposed. The main features of this method are demonstrated on example of student’s qualification monitoring for e-learning courses. Software realization of this approach in multiagent M(e)L system that provides creation and matchmaking of course ontologies is described.
