OA usage reporting: Understanding stakeholder needs and advancing trust through shared infrastructure

The complexity of usage reporting for Open Access (OA) content continues to grow, particularly with content syndication to organizations such as ScienceDirect and ResearchGate, which deliver content across multiple platforms at an unprecedented scale. What kind of usage data do diverse stakeholders (including libraries, publishers, authors, and editors) need? Can the work done to support OA book usage data analytics use cases inform OA article and data use cases? What standards and policies are required to ensure the usage data is accurate and meaningful? What infrastructure is needed to collect and disseminate this data effectively and efficiently? This paper brings together four different perspectives to consider these questions: an OA publisher, a research infrastructure, an emerging usage data trust, and a usage analytics service provider. The authors walk through what is known, and then start to unpack the questions for which they do not yet have answers. Their goal is to inform the community’s understanding of the challenges ahead and, hopefully, start to lay the groundwork for constructive policies and shared solutions.

SYNDICATION AS A WAY OF FORMATION OF THE MODERN CONTENT

The Purpose of the Study is to theoretically substantiate the phenomenon of syndication in social communications as a way of forming modern content in communication platforms. The Research Methodology consisted of a number of methods. Comparative analysis was used to study existing scientific points of view and describe the practical side of the issue; detailing and description of the term "content syndication", proposed by the author as commonly used in applied social and communication technologies; sociological survey of respondents in the network. The Scientific Novelty. lies in the fact that content syndication is currently a phenomenon that is little researched and described, in view of the current rapid development of applied communication technologies, such a description is necessary. The author's vision of the concept of "content syndication" is provided. We see the practical component in detailing the possibilities of web content syndication as an effective way of working with the audience, which is the relevance of the research topic. The Conclusions. The article presents the author's vision of one of the ways of cooperation with today's demanding audience. Nowadays, there is an urgent need for the formation of high-quality and relevant content that is rapidly distributed among Internet users. Due to information oversaturation, journalists are forced to look for new and effective ways of cooperation, interest of the audience and retention of their attention, therefore the requirements for the content itself are also increasing. We consider syndication as an effective way of creating and introducing content. A pilot survey of respondents was proposed, which proved the effectiveness of using content introduced by syndication.

Smartphone RSS Traces For Forensic Analysis

This paper’s topic is on Smartphone RSS traces for Forensic analysis; RSS represents Really Simple Syndication whereas smartphone RSS traces refers to a small software program that collects and displays RSS feeds. It allows you to scan headlines from a number of news sources in a central location and has the ability to suggest information of interest to you based on the criteria of your search. RSS feed has been in existence for many years but has never been as widely used as it is today, the term syndication refers to publishing information on the Internet that can be used by other sites as well as by stand-alone reader applications. The introduction of blogs hyped content syndication before, the syndicated content, known as feeds, was typically found on news sites only. Once blogs began proliferating on the Internet, content started being shared left and right, and users began using readers and aggregators to track their favorite blogs. In addition, those who subscribe to podcasts are actually using technology built on RSS. Whether providing a feed for a blog, providing a feed of changes for some software you may be writing, or doing your own podcast, the applications for content syndication are almost endless, and its usage is growing at a phenomenal rate every day.” Robert Richards, January 2006- Article on “RSS feed and content Syndication”. Forensically, Smartphone RSS feed gives the forensic examiner a fair idea about the conception of the individual whose phone contains the analyzed feed. This is because the feed usually contains information of interest to the user which helps you think like the user in order to get the needed information you are looking for. This paper will also identify gaps with smartphone RSS feed users and suggest solutions/recommendations to mitigate them in order to be safe even after subscribing to certain RSS feeds.

Potentials of digital longforms in journalism. A survey among mobile Internet users about the relevance of online devices, Internet-specific qualities, and modes of payment

ABSTRACTAfter two decades of content syndication on legacy media’s online platforms, longforms such as scrollytelling, web documentaries, and selective multimedia stories take advantage of Internet-specific qualities. However, due to the high amount of resources needed for the production, media managers are challenged to judge their journalistic and economic potential. Hence, this paper suggests integrating the concept of Internet-specific quality and the relevance of the user’s expectations towards quality to focus on potentials of content innovation into media management research. We draw on the relevance of Internet devices within the recipient’s media repertoire for background information and the use of digital longforms. Based on the frequency of use, results of a quantitative face-to-face survey representative for German mobile Internet users (n = 248) indicate that stationary and mobile Internet devices are already an inherent part. However, there is a lack of strategic marketing. Not all digital longforms are well known; most recognised is scrollytelling. Second, we draw on the user’s expectations on Internet-specific qualities and attitudes towards advertisement and paid content. As our data show, recipients prefer multimedia, selectivity, and intuitive usability, not wishing to become part of the story through interactive and participative features. Furthermore, users are willing to pay for longform journalism that suits their interests, but media companies have to offer single purchase options instead of subscriptions.

Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices Recommended Immunization Schedules for Persons Aged 0 Through 18 Years—United States, 2016

Each year, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP)* reviews the recommended immunization schedules for persons aged 0 through 18 years to ensure that the schedules reflect current recommendations for Food and Drug Administration-licensed vaccines. In October 2015, ACIP approved the recommended immunization schedules for persons aged 0 through 18 years for 2016; the 2016 schedules include several changes from the 2015 immunization schedules. For 2016, the figures, footnotes, and tables will be published on the CDC immunization schedule website (http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/schedules/index.html). This provides readers electronic access to the most current version of the schedules and footnotes on the CDC website. Health care providers are advised to use figures, tables, and the combined footnotes together. Printable versions of the 2016 immunization schedules for persons aged 0 through 18 years in several formats (e.g., portrait, landscape, and pocket-sized versions) and ordering instructions for laminated versions and "parent-friendly" schedules are available at the immunization schedule website.

Content-Based Publish/Subscribe System for Web Syndication

Content syndication has become a popular way for timely delivery of frequently updated information on the Web. Today, web syndication technologies such as RSS or Atom are used in a wide variety of applications spreading from large-scale news broadcasting to medium-scale information sharing in scientific and professional communities. However, they exhibit serious limitations for dealing with information overload in Web 2.0. There is a vital need for efficient real-time filtering methods across feeds, to allow users to effectively follow personally interesting information. We investigate in this paper three indexing techniques for users’ subscriptions based on inverted lists or on an ordered trie for exact and partial matching. We present analytical models for memory requirements and matching time and we conduct a thorough experimental evaluation to exhibit the impact of critical parameters of realistic web syndication workloads.

Dynamic Social and Media Content Syndication for Second Screen

Social networking apps, sites and technologies offer a wide range of opportunities for businesses and developers to exploit the vast amount of information and user-generated content produced through social networking. In addition, the notion of second screen TV usage appears more influential than ever, with viewers continuously seeking further information and deeper engagement while watching their favourite movies or TV shows. In this work, the authors present SAM, an innovative platform that combines social media, content syndication and targets second screen usage to enhance media content provisioning, renovate the interaction with end-users and enrich their experience. SAM incorporates modern technologies and novel features in the areas of content management, dynamic social media, social mining, semantic annotation and multi-device representation to facilitate an advanced business environment for broadcasters, content and metadata providers, and editors to better exploit their assets and increase their revenues.

A web-based IPTV content syndication system for personalized content guide

In this paper, we propose a web-based content syndication system in which users can easily choose Internet protocol television (IPTV) contents. This system generates personalized content guide to provide a list of IPTV contents with respect to users' interests and statistics information of their online social community. For this, IPTV contents and relevant metadata are collected from various sources and transformed. Then, the service and content metadata are processed by user metadata including audience measurement and community metadata. The metadata flows are separated from content flows of transport network. The implementation of IPTV content syndication system demonstrates how to arrange IPTV contents efficiently from content providers to the end user's screen. We also show that the user metadata including online community information are important for the system's performance and the user's satisfaction.

RSSCube: A Content Syndication and Recommendation Architecture

Content syndication is the process of pushing the information out into third-party information providers. The idea is to drive more engagement with your content by wiring it into related digital contexts. However, there are some shortages of current related products, such as search challenges on massive feeds, synchronization performance, and user experience. To address these limitations, we aim to propose an improved architecture of content syndication and recommendation. First, we design a source listener to extract feed changes from different RSS sources, and propagate the incremental changes to target schema-free document stores to improve the search performance. Second, the proposed recommendation algorithm is to tidy, filter, and sort all the feeds before pushing them to the users automatically. Third, we provide some OAuth2-authorization RESTful feed sharing APIs for the integration with the third-party systems. The experimental result shows that this architecture speeds up the search and synchronization process, and provides friendlier user experience.

Homogenisation or Differentiation?

This paper considers the effects of consolidation on the content of regional newspapers in Norway. A case study investigates how the Norwegian media company Schibsted influences the content of its four regional newspapers Aftenposten, Fædrelandsvennen, Stavanger Aftenblad and Bergens Tidende. The aim is to establish the extent to which levels of pluralism are reducing as a result of consolidation strategies. Schibsted's cost-cutting measures initiated in 2012 include staff reductions, content syndication and centralisation of core services. This trend towards shrinking newsrooms, digital specialisation, and centralised layout and editing is recognised internationally, particularly in chain newspapers. In this study, Schibsted's regional print and online news outlets are subjected to a comparative content analysis aiming to establish levels of homogenisation between the titles. Findings indicate differentiation strategies remain central to regional operations, reflecting the presence of community bonds in local newspaper markets.

Redifusión de catálogos bibliográficos en MARC-XML

By using MARC-XML to modify the RSS code format, the technique habitually used by the media in rebroadcasting news can also be used for bibliographical catalogues. Among other things, this procedure offers the advantages of improved dissemination of contents, sharing catalogues with other libraries, and allowing user downloads of catalogues. Researchers performed an array of trials to measure the building and recovery times for such bibliographical collections, while determining the sort of applications and functions needed to control these files. These experiences allow researchers to conclude that it is possible to generate, transmit and retrieve bibliographical catalogues using content syndication practices and methods.

Application of Syndication to the Management of Bibliographic Catalogs

Problem statement: The process of transmission of bibliographic records between libraries is a complex task, usually treated by the Z39.50 protocol. Approach: The objective of this research is to propose an alternative method to simplify this process, using the techniques of content syndication. Results: The computer program compares the feasibility of using different formats (ATOM, RSS1.0, RSS2.0 and MARC-XML) to convey and share library catalogs of various sizes (up to 1 millon records) between libraries. Tests have shown that smaller collections of 25,000 records, the time insertion/import catalogs is less than 1 min. Conclusion/Recommendations: The analysis suggests that syndication is a useful technique for the transmission and retrieval of bibliographic information.

Development and performance evaluation of a new RSS tool for a Web-based system: RSS_PROYECT

The aim of this paper is the development, implementation and subsequent performance evaluation of an innovative tool called RSS_PROYECT, based on the RSS technology for content syndication. At the present, there are several Web content syndicators; although there is no one so far specifically designed for the search of news related to women in risk of social exclusion. They do not even have the characteristics and configuration level of the program syndicator RSS_PROYECT, presented in this paper.To obtain these contents, we used 2 filters (generic and selective), set up by the administrator from the module RSS_PROYECT installed in Joomla!. The generic filter allowed us to do a search of the words included in a series of sources indexed by the user. This filter showed all the sources that contained this word, without exception. In the selective filter, the condition on which the sources would appear would be that all the words of the selective filter were contained in the source.We used different languages such as PHP, MySQL, HTML, XML and Joomla's! Application Program Interface (API). Furthermore, we used the program, Firebug to measure the response speed of the module, both with the selective and generic filters. The results were favorable for the selective filter, and very favorable for the generic filter, concluding that the processing time was short and executed efficiently. Better average times were obtained for RSS_PROYECT with respect to other modules analysed in Joomla!. Nowadays, this tool is used by the Comprehensive Center for Women’s Help (Centro Integral de Ayuda a la Mujer, CIAM) of Valladolid, Spain.
