It is not intended to address the full range of issues in modern document delivery systems and does not, for exa...

This document defines mechanisms that provide an asynchronous message notification delivery service for the Network Configuration protocol (NETCONF). This is an optional capability built on top of the base NETCONF definition. This document defines the capabilities and operations necessary to support this service.

In the last 20 yearn, information science and technology have revolutionized the way researchers use the literature. We have described how many of the newer information systems have radically transformed the retrieval of bibliographic information. Indeed, it is safe to say that the ancient problem of “bibliographic control” has been solved. 1 Citation indexing, keyword indexing, and online acce...

Research in natural language generation promises significant advances in the ways in which we can make available the contents of underlying information sources. Most work in the field relies on the existence of carefully constructed artificial intelligence knowledge bases; however, the reality is that most information currently stored on computers is not represented in this format. In this pape...

An Internet-based Document Delivery Service (DDS) has been developed within the framework of the CNR (Italian National Research Council) Project BiblioMIME, in order to take advantage of new Internet technologies and promote co-operation among CNR and Italian university libraries. Adopting these technologies changes the traditional organisation of DDS and may drastically reduce costs and delive...
