\nObject Reuse and Exchange<\/a> (ORE) is a framework for creating collections of related scientific work. ORE an initiative of the Open Archives Initiative<\/a> (OAI). Web resources<\/a> can be related to one another in a semantic web<\/a> machine readable<\/a> way. The collections or aggregations of web resources can be stored in distributed locations such as web pages and online archives. This in contrast to web services<\/a> that are locking-in the data, so other users are obliged to use the same service.<\/p>\n

When many many aggregations are made one is able to discover or detect other web resources related to another. For example a publication C<\/em> can be discovered that has used the same data set B<\/em> as does publication A<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The video below shows a firefox plugin that is able to visually create aggregations of web resources. It is called aus-e-lit<\/em> and will be available in January 2010.<\/p>\n

This system has a few drawbacks for now that we see, that should be read as suggested improvements.<\/p>\n
