SCIENTIFIC REFERENCES IMPORT FROM UNSTRUCTURED DATA

Along teaching scientific research is second most important task for every university and faculty member. Research results are commonly published as journal papers, book chapters or as conference proceedings with the purpose to communicate the findings in academic circles, serve as promotion, or be used for tenure or reapplication. Maintaining the list of scientific references, can be a time consuming and tedious activity. To help along the process we have created a Web application named References that makes the process of editing and formatting the references partially automated and less time consuming. In this paper we present the architecture of the application, its functionalities and newly added feature that enables importing references both from structured and unstructured data.
