Science across all disciplines has become increasingly data-driven, leading to additional needs with respect software for collecting, processing and analysing data. Thus, transparency about used as part of the scientific process is crucial understand provenance individual research data insights, a prerequisite reproducibility can enable macro-analysis evolution methods over time. However, missing rigor in citation practices renders automated detection disambiguation mentions challenging...
Knowledge about software used in scientific investigations is important for several reasons, instance, to enable an understanding of provenance and methods involved data handling. However, usually not formally cited, but rather mentioned informally within the scholarly description investigation, raising need automatic information extraction disambiguation. Given lack reliable ground truth data, we present SoMeSci-Software Mentions Science-a gold standard knowledge graph mentions articles. It...
Abstract The governments’ mitigation measures to fight the COVID-19 pandemic are unprecedented in our post-war history. For overcoming this crisis, citizens were expected act compliance with these order control spread of virus and keep public health systems functional. This call for protecting at same time confronted several severe limitations their democratic freedoms rights: confinement, restriction on movement, religion, specific provisions protest finally also right education by school...
Web service (WS) orchestration can be considered as a fundamental concept in service-oriented architectures (SOA), well spatial data infrastructures (SDI). In recent years SOA, advanced solutions were developed, such realizing orchestrated web services on the basis of already existing more fine-granular by using standardized notations and engines. Even if concepts mapped to field SDI, conceptual level implementations target different goals. As specialized form common service, an Open...
In the area of Linked Open Data (LOD) meaningful and high-performance interlinking different datasets has become an ongoing challenge. Necessary tasks are supported by established standards software, e.g. for transformation, storage, publication data. Our use case Swissbib is a well-known provider bibliographic data in Switzerland representing various libraries library networks. this article, study presented from project linked.swissbib.ch which focuses on preparation means LOD. available...
Research on environmental justice comprises health and well-being aspects, as well topics related to general social participation. In this research field, among others, there is a need for an integrated use of science survey data spatial data, e.g. combining demographic information from with pollution data. However, researchers it challenging link both sources, because (1) the interdisciplinary nature sources different, (2) underlie different legal restrictions, in particular regarding...
The Russian Invasion of Ukraine in 2022 resulted a rapidly changing cyber threat environment globally and incentivized the sharing security privacy advice on social media. Previous research found strong impact online end-user behavior.
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Societies worldwide have witnessed growing rifts separating advocates and opponents of vaccinations other COVID-19 countermeasures. With the rollout vaccination campaigns, German-speaking DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), initially exhibited a noticeably low uptake compared to European regions. Later, increased. It remains unclear which factors contributed these changes. </sec> <title>OBJECTIVE</title> This study aims shed light on intricacies...
Societies worldwide have witnessed growing rifts separating advocates and opponents of vaccinations other COVID-19 countermeasures. With the rollout vaccination campaigns, German-speaking regions exhibited much lower uptake than European regions. While Austria, Germany, Switzerland (the DACH region) caught up over time, it remains unclear which factors contributed to these changes. Scrutinizing public discourses can help shed light on intricacies vaccine hesitancy inform policy-makers tasked...

We sketch the main software components developed in project RichWPS1, which aims to support end users (no IT experts) make better use of distributed geodata processing through OGC Web Processing Service (WPS). These services include a service orchestration solution (modelling GUI and engine), several supporting modules (like semantics-enabled registry as well debugging monitoring for composed services), some server-side helpers facilitate true interoperability an adapter layer bridge âWPS...
One of the grand challenges discussed during Dagstuhl Seminar "Knowledge Graphs: New Directions for Knowledge Representation on Semantic Web" and described in its report is that a: "Public FAIR Graph Everything: We increasingly see creation knowledge graphs capture information about entirety a class entities. [...] This challenge extends this further by asking if we can create graph "everything" ranging from common sense concepts to location based should be "open public" manner democratizing...
