Text Mining. Action Science Explorer (Formerly iOpener Workbench) Latest News January 2012. Our paper on Action Science Explorer was accepted by JASIST, the Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology. See the Publications section below for more details. December 2011. Action Science Explorer was featured in a NSF Discoveries report, "A New Visualization Method Makes Research More Organized and Efficient" (pdf). July 2010. Description The goal of the iOpener project is to generate readily-consumable surveys of different scientific domains and topics, targeted to different audiences and levels.
Action Science Explorer is partially an integration of two powerful existing tools the SocialAction network analysis tool and the JabRef reference manager. These tools are linked together to form multiple coordinated views of the data. There are other coordinated views that provide the user with other aspects of the field.

Requirements Java Runtime (JRE) You need to have Java Runtime (JRE) installed on your computer before you can run CiteSpace. Make sure you install the JRE that matches to your system. If you have a 32-bit system, you need to install the JRE for Windows x86. If you have a 64-bit system, install the JRE for Windows x64. CiteSpace is currently optimized for Windows 64-bit with Java 7.
Memory or RAM It is recommended that you should have at least 1024MB (=1GB) of memory on your computer. WebStart versus Download You may use either the WebStart link or the download link.

If you know the academic me, you know I love, and regularly tout, using Zotero to manage my ever-growing bibliography. There is one problem with Zotero, however, that I just cannot move past: its inability to use relative links for linking to files. update: I edited the following paragraph to clear up some confusion pointed out in a posted comment.
I should also point out that on Zotero's website, there are numerous posts from users requesting relative links, but with absolutely no reply from Zotero. This again makes me think that the way Zotero is written, relative links are not possible. Otherwise, they would have it, wouldn't they? I love being able to sync my Zotero database between my personal Mac and school PC, but the syncing breaks the file links. If you sync your database to a second computer, it shows the links as still being there, but if you try to click on a file to open it within Zotero you get an error message saying Zotero cannot find it. 1. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. How to make both work for you | The Moni-Blog. So yesterday I posted about how I switched over to JabRef reference software, mainly because it allows relative links, but also because it easily lets you see and edit the BibTex entry, which as a LaTeX user, is very helpful.
There are two things JabRef does not really do that Zotero does that I find really useful: 1) Zotero can easily capture reference information from a variety of website formats, even if no Bibtex or RIS entry is provided 2) You can drop a pdf directly into Zotero, index it, and then retrieve the reference information automatically, assuming the article is online somewhere If the article's webpage has a BibTex or RIS entry available for download, you can simply download this and import it into your JabRef database, but I have noticed some journals still do not offer this service (shame on them!)
So this morning I have been happily using Zotero to collect reference information I find online and to auto-generate some entries based off some PDFs I already had. Docear. JabRef reference manager. SciPlore: Exploring Science.
