Data, data use, and scientific inquiry: two case studies of data practices
JCDL '12: Proceedings of the 12th ACM/IEEE-CS joint conference on Digital Libraries

Data are proliferating far faster than they can be captured, managed, or stored. What types of data are most likely to be used and reused, by whom, and for what purposes? Answers to these questions will inform information policy and the design of ...
Detecting and analyzing missing citations to published scientific entities
Abstract
Proper citation is of great importance in academic writing for it enables knowledge accumulation and maintains academic integrity. However, citing properly is not an easy task. For published scientific entities, the ever-growing academic ...
Understanding scientific data sharing outside of the academy
ASIST '16: Proceedings of the 79th ASIS&T Annual Meeting: Creating Knowledge, Enhancing Lives through Information & Technology

Sharing and reuse of scientific data, which can enhance the transparency and reproducibility of research and lead to the creation of new knowledge from existing data, is both a growing scholarly communication practice and an expanding area of interest ...
