description: The sites associated with the lifetime of the Noyon Khutagt Danzanravjaa (1803-1857), the fifth reincarnation in the Noyon Khutagt lineage, in the Dornogovi aimag (province) form an important pilgrimage route in Mongolia. Danzanravjaa was born in the Gobi desert to a poor family during the Qing Empire. He is renowned for being an egalitarian lama (Buddhist religious specialist), a healer, and an influential playwright. The Energy Centre, which is one of the key sites on the pilgrimage is where he is believed to have left his healing energy for those who needed to benefit from its restorative properties following his death. Many of the other sites are associated with Danzanravjaa's life. One spot on the pilgrimage marks the site of Mongolia’s first theatre which was destroyed during the socialist purges of the 1930s. His play The Life Story of the Moon Cuckoo (Saran Khökhöö Namtar) is one of Mongolia’s most famous plays. Another site is a collection of crumbling meditation caves used by Danzanravjaa and his students, which include a rebirthing cave, an old cherry tree which has miraculously survived in the desert (donated to Danzanravjaa by a Japanese student), and a healing rock. Most of the artefacts associated with Danzanravjaa’s lifetime managed to survive the socialist purges of the 1930s. When his temple Khamarin Khiid became under threat, the curator of the temple, Lama Tuduv, hid crates of artefacts in the Gobi Desert. Two months later soldiers arrived and ransacked the temple, destroying the temple and killing many of the resident lamas. During the purges of the late 1930s around 36,000 people, half of whom were Buddhist lamas, were killed. Lama Tuduv survived and taught the whereabouts of the hidden artefacts to his grandson. In 1991 his grandson Altangerel dug up the crates and most of the artefacts are now housed in the Danzanravjaa museum in Sainshand. Important parts of the pilgrimage now include: Tontoon ovoo, the Energy Centre, the 108 meditation caves, the Ikh Tenger (great sky) Bell, the old site of the theatre, the newly built Khamarin Khiid temple complex, Bayanzurkh mountain, and the Danzanravjaa Museum at Sainshand.

description: This paper seeks to define a new method for representing and managing description of archival collections using OAI-ORE. This new method has two advantages. Firstly, it adapts traditional archival description methods for the contemporary reality that digital collections, unlike collections of physical materials, are not best described by physical location. Secondly, it takes advantage of the power of OAI-ORE to allow for a multitude of non-linear relationships, providing richer and more powerful access and description.

description: Ichnospecies Canipeda longigriffa Panin and Avram, 1962
Fig. 6
 Specimens
Numerous footprints in the studied slab. The geometry of six footprints in the lower part have been studied and measured.
 Diagnosis
 Canipeda footprints with four oval digital pads, closely spaced with distinctive claw footprints. Footprint length / width ratio is 1.6 to 1.9, with low divarication of outer digits (II – V) less than 30 ◦.
 Discussion
 At first, Canipeda was established as a monospecific C. longigriffa, which includes elongate tetradactyl footprints with long claw imprints. Its claw imprints converge in the middle digit imprints and are straight in lateral digit imprints. Based on the presence or absence of claw imprints as a distinctive diagnostic feature, some of the Bestiopeda ichnospecies were revised in the new combination ichnospecies of Canipeda by Sarjeant et al. (2002). In addition to the type ichnospecies (C. longigriffa), there are three valid ichnospecies of the ichnogenus Canipeda (Melchor et al., 2019): C. gracilis (Vialov, 1965), C. sanguinolenta (Vialov, 1965) and C. therates (Remeika, 1999).
 Canipeda gracilis is known as having larger manus than pes imprints and a footprint length / width ratio between 1.0 and 1.3, less than in C. longigriffa. The ichnospecies C. sanguinolenta (= Bestiopeda sanguinolenta Vialov, 1966) has relatively large, tetradactyl carnivore footprints with tapered digit imprints. C. therates is a small-sized footprint with small metatarsal pad imprints.
Hyaena footprints differ from canid footprints by their larger and closer digit imprints (Abi-Said and Abi-Said, 2007). Iliopoulos et al. (2012) reported tetradactyl footprints with large claw imprints from the late Miocene of Crete (Greece) that might be referred to a large-sized hyaena.
 Anton et al. (2004), however, believe that assigning C. longigriffa to Canidae is incorrect because of the large size of the interdigital pad relative to the toe pads, as well as the detailed morphology of the interdigital pad. They attributed C. longigriffa to a herpestid (mongoose). To assess this idea requires the reexamination of the holotype of C. longigriffa, which is lost, so only its photo is available.

From Dynamic to Static: the challenge of depositing, archiving and publishing constantly changing content from the information environment
Creators: name: Jones, Richard
Publisher: name: International Conference on Open Repositories : Proceedings
Year: 2010

description: A repository used for storing and disseminating research is a canonical example of a system which strives to produce stable artefacts which can be reliably referenced, if not actually reserved, over time. This is a difficult task, since the normal state of information is constant flux: being updated, revised, rewritten, removed and republished. Recent work in deposit technology has tended to centre around the use of a repository as a 'final resting place' for some research item. It has typically used packages of content, roughly analogous to the SIP (Submission Information Package) in OAIS (http://public.ccsds.org/publications/archive/650x0b1.pdf), to insert 'finished' works into the archive. An example of this is SWORD (http://www.swordapp.org/), which addresses in great detail the deposit mechanism, but is largely reliant on the payload being a single file (for example, a zip), containing all the information that the repository needs in order to create an archival object. This places a burden on the depositor to make an assertion that an item is finished and ready for archiving, and pushes tasks that the repository is traditionally good at (i.e. storing content) out to whatever system the user is creating their work in. Over the past year, Symplectic Ltd (http://www.symplectic.co.uk/) has attempted to break down this reliance on the "package", and move repository deposit in the direction of not only full CRUD (Create, Retrieve, Update, Delete), but also to give repository workflows the opportunity to define when a work is "finished" (at least, provisionally). This will give the repository the opportunity to do what it does best (i.e. store content), and to allow the administrators - experts in repositories and archiving - to have a hand in determining whether an item is "finished", relieving these burdens from the depositor and their research process.

description: Online submission and publishing is the norm for academic researchers. With the pressure on these authors to submit their work to conferences, journals and Institutional Repositories, this leads to demands on the author to go through multiple web based interfaces, filling in forms with the same information multiple times before they can submit. At the same time, each of these services in turn will have made policy decisions on what types of format they allow and what templates the content has to conform to. The amount of work expected of the author does not adding up to the potential gain, thus most authors will only submit into the repository or publication where they foresee the most benefit. In this paper we propose a solution to this problem that embeds the workflow for multiple submissions into the desktop application of the author, most commonly Microsoft Word. We also propose extending the work done on the Microsoft Word Author Add-in tool to allow two-way negotiation between each repository and the desktop application.

description: Australian institutional research repositories are now facing a new challenge: datasets and associated metadata. With prior focus predominantly on research outputs, repository managers are now involved in a new phase of repository re-purposing - curation of datasets and associated metadata, and provision of this metadata to a national data commons through ANDS (Australian National Data Service). Through a series of surveys conducted by the national repository support service, CAIRSS (the CAUL Australian Institutional Repository Support Service), this paper examines the research data challenges facing research repository managers, levels of institutional research data identification, and the readiness of traditional institutional research repositories to either curate or work alongside this data.

description: South Arabia was unified under the kingdom of Ḥimyar around 275 CE, after subjugating the nearby kingdoms of Saba’ and Ḥaḍramawt. The king of Ḥimyar Malkīkarib Yuha’min (reigned from about 375 to 400) converted to monotheism around 380. Two religious communities are in South Arabia during the fourth and fifth centuries. A local Jewish community influenced the ruling elites, which adopted a cautious form of monotheism which could be defined as “Jewish sympathizing”. In addition to the presence of several Hebrew and Aramiac loanwords in Ḥimyarite inscriptions, two Hebrew inscriptions have been found in South Arabia and a group of epitaphs found outside South Arabia has been attributed to Jewish Himryarite emigrants. The Ḥimyarite kings’ choice to adopt a monotheism inspired by Judaism potentially had political implications, distancing Ḥimyar from Christian political entities, such as Rome, Aksūm, and the surrounding federations of Arabia. Two centuries after the unification, Christianity spread in South Arabia from Najrān, an oasis located at the intersection of the trade route between South Arabia and North-Western Arabia. While one literary account attributes the spread of Christianity in Najrān to a priest by the name of ʾAzqir, active at the time of king Shurihḅʾīl Yakkuf (ca. 468–80), others attributes it to a trader named Ḥannān or Ḥayyān who had converted at Ḥīrah, in modern Iraq. Another literary account attributes the Himyarite’s conversion to Christianity to the preachings of the ascetics Paul and John. This hagiography was probably the basis of the narrative by the Yemeni Wahb ibn Munabbih (d. 728/32) reported by the Muslim historians Ibn Isḥāq and al-Ṭabarī. Both authors claim that two Christians, named Faymiyūn and Ṣālih, were sold as enslaved people in Najrān, where people venerate palm trees. When Faymiyūn proved the truthfulness of the Christian God, the oasis converted to Christianity. Around 523, the Jews of Ḥimyar, sponsored by the king, and the rising community of Christians of South Arabia entered into conflict when the Jewish South Arabian king by the name of Joseph killed the Christian population of Najrān. Kāleb, the Christian king of Aksūm (located between north Ethiopia and south Eritrea) led an expedition to South Arabia and killed Joseph in 525. Thereafter, a Christian kingdom was established in the region until its fall in 575. Kaleb is regarded as a defender of the Miaphysite faction and a saint for the universal church. The kingdom of South Arabia collapsed in the second half of the sixth century.
Taking the plunge. Repositories and Research pooling in Scotland

description: Defining the Problem:
The ERIS Project is working with stakeholders to understand what will motivate them to deposit their research outputs and integrate repository use into a standard part of their research life cycle. A specific focus of the project is on the needs of Research pools. Research Pooling is defined as the formation of strategic collaborations between universities in disciplinary or multi-disciplinary areas involving the international quality departments or individual researchers across Scotland (http://www.sfc.ac.uk/research/researchpools/researchpools.aspx). The emergence of research pooling since the 2001 RAE exercise (http://www.sfc.ac.uk/web/FILES/Our_Priorities_Research/research_pooling_article_july08.pdf) has made a significant contribution to the development and success of Scottish research (http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/story.asp?storyCode=404806§ioncode=26), and as institutions digest the outcome of the 2008 RAE and plan for the Research Excellent Framework (REF), the pools are considering how they can best manage their strategic approaches and meet the growing return on investment and other reporting demands of their investing partners.

description: Publishing and bibliometric indicators are of utmost relevance for scientists and research institutions. The impact or importance of a publication (or even of a scientist or an institution) is mostly regarded to be equivalent to a citation-based indicator, e.g. in form of the Journal Impact Factor (JIF) or the Hirsch-Index (h-index). Both on an individual and an institutional level performance measurement depends strongly on these impact scores. The most common methods to assess the impact of scientific publications show several deficiencies, for instance:
· The scope of the databases that are used to calculate citation-based metrics (Web of Science WoS respectively the Journal Citation Reports JCR and Scopus) is restricted and more or less arbitrarily defined.
· The JIF and h-index are showing several disciplinary biases (exclusion of many document types, the two years timeframe of the JIF, etc.).
· Both JIF and h-index are privileging documents in English language.
Even though in principle citation-based metrics provide some arguments pro open access, they mostly disadvantage open access publications - and by that reduce the attractiveness of open access for scientists. Especially documents that are self-archived on open access repositories (and not published in an open access journal) are excluded from the relevant databases that are typically used to calculate JIF-scores or the h-index.

description: It is of great significance to study the spatial layout of small businesses for improving the basic security of residents' lives. As the main supplier of daily necessities for residents in old communities lacking large-scale commercial construction conditions, small businesses play an important role. Based on the data collected by questionnaires and interviews, the small business layout network based on the supply-demand relationship is obtained. The structural characteristics are analysed and the small business communities are divided. According to the small business service radius, the small business community in theory is divided and the planning optimization suggestions are put forward in combination with the actual situation. The data analysis shows that the layout of small businesses is closely related to the layout of residential areas but not closely related to the layout of purchase points, which is caused by the purchase mode of small businesses. Through the analysis of coupling characteristics, the study considers that small businesses provide a large number of daily necessities in the community. It is suggested that the layout of small businesses should be considered in the planning of public facilities and targeted space optimization strategies should be taken in different communities.

Με τις εξαιρετικά υψηλές πυκνότητες που επικρατούν στον πυρήνα τους φέρνουν την ύλη σε καταστάσεις που δεν μπορούν να επιτευχθούν σε εργαστήρια στη γη. Επομένως, η μελέτη των χαρακτηριστικών τους μας παρέχει σημαντική πληροφορία για τη σύσταση της ύλης σε αυτές τις συνθήκες. Στην εργασία αυτή υποθέτουμε ένα σωματίδιο Χ ως προϊόν διάσπασης νετρονίων. Θεωρώντας ότι οι αστέρες νετρονίων αποτελούνται αρχικά αποκλειστικά από νετρόνια, αναμένουμε την εμφάνιση των Χ και ανάλογα με τα χαρακτηριστικά τους τροποποιούμε την καταστατική εξίσωση και επιλύουμε τις σχέσεις TOV. Τα χαρακτηριστικά αυτά είναι η μάζα χ και οι παράμετροι αλληλεπίδρασης μεταξύ των χ-χ και νετρονίων-χ.

description: Neutron stars, some of the densest observable objects known, offer a window into extreme states of matter. This thesis explores a novel model incorporating a hypothetical particle "χ," a product of neutron decay within the star. We investigate how the properties of "χ" (mass and interaction parameters) influence the equation of state (EoS) and, consequently, the structure of neutron stars as described by the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff (TOV) equations. The research is divided into two parts: (1) We analyze solutions under the assumption of chemical equilibrium between particles and a variable χ-χ interaction parameter. (2) We explore the evolution of the system towards equilibrium, starting from a pure neutron state, for various "χ" properties. This research aims to constrain the possible internal compositions of neutron stars and shed light on the role of "χ" in their structure.

description: The SSHOC project Deliverable D5.13 Recommendations for a FAIR compliant integrated data and metadata repository describes the implementation of the European Social Survey (ESS) pilot project to prepare cross-national survey data and metadata for the EOSC. The report explains the various steps made to prepare and implement the new infrastructure, and the achievements reaped by the approach in terms of improved implementation of the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable). The new ESS data and metadata service consists of multiple data and metadata repositories to support an efficient, collaborative, version-controlled data processing workflow. The service makes use of Colectica software solutions for metadata management and Azure cloud for data storage and management. The repositories are accessed via ESS API for management and dissemination of data and metadata. The architecture allows users to query the API in a range of ways. Increased use of controlled vocabularies and easier log in (authentication) has given simpler retrieval of data. Furthermore, the APIs allow data curators to process, document and publish data and metadata in a secure and stable environment. Finally, practical recommendations based on the experiences of NSD/Sikt are provided. Beyond SSHOC WP5, this document is relevant to SSHOC WP3 and WP7.

Enhancing Statistics: Google Analytics and Visualization APIs
Creators: name: Triggs, Graham
Publisher: name: International Conference on Open Repositories : Proceedings
Year: 2010

description: Usage statistics have been an important topic in the repository community for some time. From Minho's DSpace additions, through Interoperable Repository Statistics, to @mire's Solr based contribution do DSpace 1.6, there have been many approaches to providing statistics. One technique that has been used in a few places is to set up a Google Analytics account. These have several advantages - free, independent of repository (and it's architecture), proven scalability, excellent tools for visualizing the data. But it has historically had its problems too - doesn't understand the structure of the repository (for displaying totals or top views/downloads for an arbitrary grouping of the content), doesn't track downloads without additional work (or those directly linked from search engines), and the reports are locked behind an authentication wall and can't be opened up to general repository users. With the [April 2009] release of an API to retrieve data from Google Analytics, that has changed. Data that has been calculated in Google Analytics can be pulled back into the repository, so that it can be viewed within context, and by anyone that can access the repository (or not, depending on implementation). This presentation shows how Google Analytics can be integrated with the repository, techniques for capturing data that wouldn't normally be available with Analytics, and making the data comprehensible through visualizations. Whilst the implementation presented here was initially conceived using a DSpace repository, the techniques can be replicated in any repository software. Further, the visualization methods are independent of the analytics data themselves, so can be adapted for other sources of data.

description: In January 2010 Cornell University Library moved to expand the funding base for arXiv by requesting support from user institutions. We hope that this voluntary support model will engage the institutions that benefit most from arXiv while maintaining arXiv's open access mission as a service free to readers and submitters alike. The development of a business model has made us look closely at arXiv's sustainability from both operational and technical standpoints. The engagement of supporting institutions creates new requirements to demonstrate value to these institutions as separate from arXiv's understood value to the community in general. In this presentation we will briefly describe options considered in development of the business model, the model chosen, uptake and feedback. We will then focus on the implications for arXiv's operation, for the long term development of our platform, and new reporting facilities.

Anyone who has worked with information technology in libraries, museums and archives knows that compared with the total cost of buying vendor software and making it actually do the desired job, there can be a great deal of room to save money while making a significant investment of resources in the process.

description: Cloud compute and cloud storage are now available from several commercial providers around the globe as a commodity service. Due to the extremely low cost, ease of use, and instant scalability the Academic community is taking a hard look at how to best utilize this resource as an extension of its own IT environment. Even though there has been much interest in using cloud infrastructure few organizations have seriously integrated the cloud as part of their environment due to several challenges foreseen, whether real of perceived. In a large survey undertaken by the DuraSpace organization in Winter 2010, some of the biggest challenges identified by our community were security, performance, reliability and trust. Little data has been published to either validate or discredit the key challenges noted within the academic community, although much anecdotal information exists regarding site outages, poor performance, loss of data and the like. The purpose of this presentation is to present the findings of a large scale pilot program utilizing cloud infrastructure from multiple commercial cloud providers, as a utility. The presentation will discuss the key challenges and benefits identified when using cloud storage and compute as a utility during the pilot program. The presentation will provide detailed analysis, where possible, across multiple cloud providers. The analysis presented will include, when applicable, what solutions were deployed to overcome security, reliability, performance and other identified technical issues.

description: Linear plastic economy leads to an unmanageable accumulation of plastic waste in the ecosystem. A change towards a sustainable circular plastics economy must be achieved. Especially the recyclability of thermosets and thermoset composites is limited and challenging. The development of reprocessable, reusable and recyclable thermosets is therefore of great importance. Vitrimers offer great potential in terms of recyclability as the incorporation of dynamic covalent bonds into a thermoset network provides a powerful method to recycle and reshape these plastics by topology rearrangements. For many applications especially in the transportation sector the thermal and mechanical properties of plastics are essential. Currently, thermoset based composites are mainly and extensively used for several interior applications. Vitrimers show very similar mechanical properties to thermosets. However, vitrimers consist of a dynamic covalent network, which changes its topology by thermal activation – offering a great potential to be more safe-, sustainable- and recyclable-by design. For application in the transportation sector, the thermal behavior and flame-retardant properties are of great importance.

description: The difference in scholarly practices between the sciences and the mainstream humanities is highlighted in a study (Palmer et al., 2009), which investigated the types of information source materials used in different humanities disciplines, based on results contained in the US Research Libraries Group (RLG) reports. Structured data is relatively little used, except in some areas of historical research, and data as it is traditionally understood in the sciences, i.e. the results of measurements and the lowest level of abstraction for the generation of scientific knowledge, even less so. It is true that the study is partly outdated, containing results from the early 1990s, and that data in the traditional sense is becoming increasingly important in the humanities, particularly for disciplines such as linguistics and archaeology in which scientific techniques have been widely adopted. Nevertheless, it is clear that in general humanities research relies not on measurements as a source of authority, but rather on the provenance of sources and assessment by peers, and that what data repositories are for the sciences, archives are for the humanities.

description: Open access has become an important publication form but the concept behind is not as well known as the public discussion makes us believe sometimes. Still today open access is equalized with electronic publication and often mixed with offers like google books. Researchers feel unsure when faced with open access and as a consequence often react conservatively. A German Research Foundation (DFG) funded project (2006-2010) attempts to structure and describe the concept of and the discussion about open access. With the libraries of the Universities of Bielefeld, Goettingen und Konstanz and the Institute of Qualitative Research in Berlin, four German experts in the area of open access took the initiative to create a now well known information platform www.open-access.net.

description: In its role of managing the US federally-funded National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), the non-profit University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) has a strong history of supporting and promoting the atmospheric sciences and related fields. In September 2009, UCAR joined a growing number of other institutions worldwide in passing an Open Access mandate requiring that all peerreviewed research published in scientific journals by its scientists and staff be made publicly available online through its institutional repository, OpenSky. The new policy and accompanying repository will enable UCAR to compile, preserve and share a complete record of its intellectual output; increase its community visibility and impact; and advance research in the atmospheric sciences by providing free, worldwide access to UCAR and NCAR scholarship. The passage of the UCAR Open Access policy was especially noteworthy as it marked the first instance of a National Science Foundation-funded national laboratory to mandate Open Access. Also noteworthy was the broad community-driven process that the NCAR Library, as the leader in this initiative, employed. This presentation will outline the three-phase process adopted by the Library in its effort to reflect both institutional and disciplinary community values and needs through OpenSky services and policies.

description: The University of Liège's institutional repository, ORBi (Open Repository and Bibliography, http://orbi.ulg.ac.be), was officially launched in November 2008. Barely fourteen months later (February 2010), it already contained more than 30,000 bibliographic references with more than 20,000 full texts available. In other words, this represents a growth of more than about 65 new references a day, which is appreciable for a medium-sized university (17,000 students, 2,700 scholars, about 3,500 new publications/year). According to ROAR (http://roar.eprints.org), ORBi is the second institutional repository (for a total of 930) in high activity level (i.e. number of days with more than 100 archived references a day). Furthermore, all these records were archived by the Institution authors themselves, there was neither batch archiving nor mass validation. What are the reasons that may explain such a success?

description: While some repositories are focused on data, the myExperiment project has demonstrated the value in sharing the methods that are used to process that data - sharing know-how and building new capabilities through the community. Evolving usage of the website provides glimpses of the future behaviour of researchers and an exploration of what researchers might be sharing in the future instead of papers. This exploration of social sharing and ad hoc reuse has taken the project into the world of scholarly research objects, linked data and what might be described as "Linked Open Methods". We now see researchers beginning to share new methods that operate at this next level of research.
