In the Web, linked data is growing rapidly due to its potential to facilitate data retrieval and data integration. At the same time, relational database systems store a vast amount of data published on the Web. Current linked data in the... more
The current ever-growing evolution of mobile technologies suggests the possibility of accessing services, in an itinerant and ubiquitous way, through many kinds of mobile devices (laptops, palmtops, cellular phones and so on). On the... more
We study the behavior and the failure reason of metadata harvesting services. We used existing OAI services and we created our own OAI client to issue requests to them for many harvesting rounds, collecting the appropriate information. We... more
