Digital Publishing
The valuable effort to help scientists to guarantee open access to their own work.
Covers everything one needs to know about self-archiving policies, procedures,
and technology.
The aim of this effort is to provide unique, persistent identifiers
for digital objects. Although not restricted to the scholarly domain, the DOI
scheme has been quickly adopted by many scientific publishers.
Another intention behind DOI is the creation of an identifier system
that may be used to protect intellectual property rights, and for
Digital Rights Management (DRM) systems. This Website uses the DOI
resolution service
dx.doi.org
wherever possible, to refer to published material.
Open Archives defined an XML-based data format and a protocol for the automatic
harvesting of bibliographic information providers. A typical use case are front-ends
for the arXiv. Besides open sources like the
arXiv, some scientific publishers like the Institute of
Physics are supporting the protocol.
Web Publishing Resources
Among the many resources used to create this page these four are most notable:
SELFHTML is the de facto standard
for HTML/XHTML/CSS references in the German-speaking domain (an English translation exists);
meyerweb.com and
DZINELABS
give some good examples for advanced CSS usage;
Without a good Unicode reference, a Web author can hardly do anymore.
English
Close reading will unveil that this author's English still
wants improvement (and perhaps will continue to do so, perpetually). Help
and consolation he found
in this Guide to Grammar and Writing,
and in these Advanced English lessons.
One of the most extraordinary, free Web dictionaries is
LEO's German-English dictionary.
