  5. Project at a glance • EU funding €1.000.000 • 200 person months • Project duration1.2.2002 - 31.1.2004 • Partners: 7 • Deliverables: 20, all public and/or open source • Web: www.SciX.net

  6. SciX partners and their roles • academic: LJU, SHH, TUW, USAL • editors, publishers, service providers • business process analysis, • advanced technology development • professional: IBRI, FGGI • knowledge transfer to practise • prototyping • eBusiness: INDRA • experience with web publishing and eBusiness

  7. Open, self organising repository for scientific information exchange • demonstrate that the Internet enables new business models for the scientific publishing process, reengineer that process • as is model • to be model • enable the scientists • create digital archives vs. web pages • time- and cost-efficient access to their peers' work, • create an on-line community of authors and readers • disseminate scientific work to non-scientists, like engineers or architects

  8. Work: • propose solid business models • semi-automating the management • intelligent, adaptable user interfaces, • wrap scientific content for the practitioner's use • evaluate solutions, are they sustainable

  9. Focus of SciX • business process re-engineering • flow of information • barriers to change, flow of values • digital library infrastructure • operated by societies, professionals, back to the roots of publishing • for-rent • non-monolithic, Web services architecture, support many different publishing models with a single toolset • knowledge management and transfer • clustering, machine learning • content wrapping and syndication
