网络档案中数学软件的链接

Linking Mathematical Software in Web Archives

Helge Holzmann, Mila Runnwerth, Wolfram Sperber

摘要:

网络是我们今天各种信息的主要来源。这包括有关软件的信息以及相关材料,如源代码、文档、相关出版物和更改日志。这些数据在研究中特别重要,以便进行,理解和重建涉及软件的科学实验。swMATH是一个数学软件目录,试图识别科学文章中提到的软件,并提供额外的信息以及到Web的链接。然而,就像软件本身一样,Web是动态的,而且Web上的信息很可能在科学出版物中引用后发生了变化。因此,保留Web上的软件资源以捕获其随时间变化的状态至关重要。我们发现swMATH中大约40%的网站已经包含在现有的Web存档中。其中,60%包含某种文档,大约45%甚至提供软件工件的下载。因此,今天已经可以根据相应文章的出版日期建立链接。所包含的数据能够丰富具有时间维度的现有信息。未来,专门的基础设施将改善软件资源的覆盖面,并允许在科学出版物中明确引用。

英文摘要:

The Web is our primary source of all kinds of information today. This includes information about software as well as associated materials, like source code, documentation, related publications and change logs. Such data is of particular importance in research in order to conduct, comprehend and reconstruct scientific experiments that involve software. swMATH, a mathematical software directory, attempts to identify software mentions in scientific articles and provides additional information as well as links to the Web. However, just like software itself, the Web is dynamic and most likely the information on the Web has changed since it was referenced in a scientific publication. Therefore, it is crucial to preserve the resources of a software on the Web to capture its states over time. We found that around 40% of the websites in swMATH are already included in an existing Web archive. Out of these, 60% of contain some kind of documentation and around 45% even provide downloads of software artifacts. Hence, already today links can be established based on the publication dates of corresponding articles. The contained data enable enriching existing information with a temporal dimension. In the future, specialized infrastructure will improve the coverage of software resources and allow explicit references in scientific publications.
