From December 2020 to January 2021, we asked you to participate in an online survey in order to help us understand how researchers are using dblp, and how dblp and its features are perceived by the public. The response exceeded our expectations: We received the amazingly high number of 1046 […]
A big change has just been made to the dblp website … and, in case we did our job right, you may even haven’t noticed yet: With the latest update, we introduced major changes to the dblp URL scheme. In particular, this applies to the URLs of all author bibliographies […]
In the past, we often discussed how helpful ORCIDs are for our work. An ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor ID) is a unique personal identifier that scientists can attach to their work. The ORCID ensures that this work is linked to the correct scientist an not to someone else with […]
