ABSTRACT
The fast dissemination of new research results on the world-wide web poses new challenges for search engines. In this paper we describe a new approach to seek scientific papers relevant to a pre-defined research area. Different from other approaches, we do not search for web pages which contain certain keywords, but we search for web pages which are created by scientists who are active in the research area under consideration. The names of these scientists are obtained from the DBLP server [9]. The HomePageSearch system finds the Home Pages according to the names, and Mops finds research papers close to the Home Pages. It creates an index of these papers and makes it accessible on the web. We conclude that such a focused crawling is very effective for building high-quality collections and indices of scientific papers, using ordinary desktop hardware.

The w-index: A measure to assess scientific impact by focusing on widely cited papers
Based on the principles of the h-index, I propose a new measure, the w-index, as a particularly simple and more useful way to assess the substantial impact of a researcher's work, especially regarding excellent papers. The w-index can be defined as ...
Acknowledgments in scientific publications: Presence in Spanish science and text patterns across disciplines
The acknowledgments in scientific publications are an important feature in the scholarly communication process. This research analyzes funding acknowledgment presence in scientific publications and introduces a novel approach for discovering text ...
