Knowledge Representation and Subject Access in Electronic Theses and Dissertations: Analysis of Creators’ and Users’ Assumptions and Expectations (open access)

Knowledge Representation and Subject Access in Electronic Theses and Dissertations: Analysis of Creators’ and Users’ Assumptions and Expectations

This paper analyzes the relationship between subject terms -- both authorized terms from controlled vocabularies and free-text keywords -- used to succinctly describe the content of the electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs) and the search terms entered by users to discover and access the ETDs. Identification of search terms and comparison of search results with subject terms used in describing ETDs provides a basis for assessing the relative usefulness of controlled-vocabulary subject terms supplied by professional indexers and free-text keywords supplied by authors of ETDs in facilitating access to ETDs. Arguably, there has been a shift in the way users search, access, and use information resources.

Representation of Recorded Knowledge and Extended Date/Time Format: A Case Study of the Digital Public Library of America

This paper presents results of a study that analyzed representation of dates and time in one of the largest aggregators of digital content in the world -- the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA). The findings demonstrate both similarities and differences in date and time representation across DPLA content hub and service hub provider groups.

Loitering at the hilltop on exterior domains (open access)

Loitering at the hilltop on exterior domains

In this article, the author proves the existence of an infinite number of radial solutions of Δu+f(u)=0 on the exterior of the ball of radius R>0 centered at the origin and f is odd with f<0 on (0,β), f>0 on (β,δ), and f≡0 for u>δ. The primitive F(u)=∫u0f(t)dt has a "hilltop" at u=δ which allows one to use the shooting method and ODE techniques to prove the existence of solutions.
