چکیده

In this paper we describe NCSTRL+, a unified, canonical digital library for scientific and technical information (STI). NCSTRL+ is based on the Networked Computer Science Technical Report Library (NCSTRL), a World Wide Web (WWW) accessible digital library (DL) that provides access to over 80 university departments and laboratories. NCSTRL+ implements two new technologies: cluster functionality and publishing ÒbucketsÓ. We have extended the Dienst protocol, the protocol underlying NCSTRL, to provide the ability to ÒclusterÓ independent collections into a logically centralized digital library based upon subject category classification, type of organization, and genres of material. The concept of ÒbucketsÓ provides a mechanism for publishing and managing logically linked entities with multiple data formats. The NCSTRL+ prototype DL contains the holdings of NCSTRL and the NASA Technical Report Server (NTRS). The prototype demonstrates the feasibility o f publishing into a multi-cluster DL, searching across clusters, and storing and presenting buckets of information. We show that the overhead for these additional capabilities is minimal to both the author and the user when compared to the equivalent process within NCSTRL.

Buckets: Aggregative, Intelligent Agents for Publishing

Buckets are an aggregative, intelligent construct for publishing in digital libraries. The goal of research projects is to produce information. This information is often instantiated in several forms, differentiated by semantic types (report, software, video, datasets, etc.). A given semantic type can be further differentiated by syntactic representations as well (PostScript version, PDF versio...

Effects of Feeding Buckets Number Per Pen on Performance and Behaviour Indicators of Lambs

Twenty-four 35-day-old lambs were distributed to a completely randomized design with 3 treatments to study the effects of number of feeding buckets per pen on performance, haematology and behaviour indicators. Treatments consisted of 8 (T1), 4 (T2) or 2 (T3) feeding buckets/pen (8 lambs/pen). During the experiment, concentrate was fed at 08:30 in individual feeders. Daily dry matter intake (DMI...

A Histogram Utilizing the Cluster Information

Histograms are summary structures of large datasets, which are mainly used for selectivity estimation during query optimization. Selectivity estimation is the fast approximation of query result size. In this paper, we focus on multi-dimensional histograms, especially bidimensional histograms. At the time of selectivity estimation, buckets partially overlapping with a query return approximated r...
