use in bibliometric and scientometric studies and for ranking post-graduate programs, research proposals, or individual research scholarships.
Qualis (cont.)
● Problem:○ Data available only as 1 Star Data○ Only the current version is available○ Data is not linked to other datasets
● Solution:○ Extracted the data from the web interface (10 years)○ Converted Qualis to a 5-star dataset○ Interlinked it to the DBpedia knowledge base
Qualis: Workflow
● Create a plan for LD project○ Planning the maintenance of LD datasets○ Managing the lifecycle of resources
● Execute a plan○ Maintaining the provenance and repeatability
information○ Producing the resources
Qualis: Workflow (cont.)
Qualis: Workflow ImplementationCreate a plan for LDProject
Workflow Implementation (cont.)Execute a plan
Qualis: Results
● Were executed over 10 years● LODFlow fulfills the requirements
Related work
● Languages such as Business Process Execution Language are adopted in technologies
● Scientific Workflow Management Systems, such as Apache Taverna and Kepler were developed
Conclusion
● Automatization of processing LD workflows● Preserving provenance information on (re)
producing LD datasets● Showing the benefits of explicitness,
reusability, repeatability and efficiency● Applicable in the context of the LODStack
and LD Lifecycle.
Future work: Integration with LODStack
Developing a tool to integrate LODFlow to the LODStack.
Improving the LDWPO with Method concepts
