  • A Comparison of Researcher's Reference Management Software
    Journal of Economics and Behavioral Studies Vol. 6, No. 7, pp. 561-568, July 2014 (ISSN: 2220-6140) A Comparison of Researcher’s Reference Management Software: Refworks, Mendeley, and EndNote Sujit Kumar Basak Durban University of Technology, South Africa [email protected] Abstract: This paper aimed to present a comparison of researcher’s reference management software such as RefWorks, Mendeley, and EndNote. This aim was achieved by comparing three software. The main results of this paper were concluded by comparing three software based on the experiment. The novelty of this paper is the comparison of researcher’s reference management software and it has showed that Mendeley reference management software can import more data from the Google Scholar for researchers. This finding could help to know researchers to use the reference management software. Keywords: Reference management software, comparison and researchers 1. Introduction Reference management software maintains a database to references and creates bibliographies and the reference lists for the written works. It makes easy to read and to record the elements for the reference comprises such as the author’s name, year of publication, and the title of an article, etc. (Reiss & Reiss, 2002). Reference Management Software is usually used by researchers, technologists, scientists, and authors, etc. to keep their records and utilize the bibliographic citations; hence it is one of the most complicated aspects among researchers. Formatting references as a matter of fact depends on a variety of citation styles which have been made the citation manager very essential for researchers at all levels (Gilmour & Cobus-Kuo, 2011). Reference management software is popularly known as bibliographic software, citation management software or personal bibliographic file managers (Nashelsky & Earley, 1991).

You need to nd related literature, take notes, draft the thesis, and eventually write the nal document and create the bibliography. Many books explain how to perform a literature survey and how to write scholarly literature in general and a thesis in particular (e.g. [1-9]). However, these books barely, if at all, cover software tools that help in performing these tasks. This is surprising, because great software tools that can facilitate the daily work of students and researchers are available and many of them for free. In this tutorial, we present a new method to reviewing scholarly literature and drafting a thesis using mind mapping software, PDF readers, and reference managers. This tutorial focuses on writing a PhD thesis. However, the presented methods are likewise applicable to planning and writing a bachelor thesis or master thesis. This tutorial is special, because it integrates the management of PDF les, the relevant content in PDFs (bookmarks), and references with mind mapping and word processing software.

  • Tool Support for the Search Process of Systematic Literature Reviews
    Institute of Architecture of Application Systems University of Stuttgart Universitätsstraße 38 D–70569 Stuttgart Bachelorarbeit Tool Support for the Search Process of Systematic Literature Reviews Dominik Voigt Course of Study: Informatik Examiner: Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. Frank Leymann Supervisor: Karoline Wild, M.Sc. Commenced: May 4, 2020 Completed: November 4, 2020 Abstract Systematic Literature Review (SLR) is a popular research method with adoption across different research domains that is used to draw generalizations, compose multiple existing concepts into a new one, or identify conflicts and gaps in existing research. Within the Information Technology domain, researchers face multiple challenges during the search step of an SLR which are caused by the use of different query languages by digital libraries. This thesis proposes tool support that provides cross-library search by using a common query language across digital libraries. For this the existing digital library APIs and query languages have been analyzed and a new cross-library query language and transformation was developed that allows the formulation of cross-library queries that can be transformed into existing query languages. These concepts have been integrated within an existing reference management tool to provide integrated and automated cross-library search and result management to address the challenges faced by Information Technology researchers during the search step. 3 Contents 1 Introduction 13 2 Background and Fundamentals 15 2.1 Systematic Literature Review Process ....................... 15 2.2 Metadata Formats for Literature Reference Management ............. 20 2.3 Queries on Digital Libraries ............................ 21 2.4 Challenges during the Search Process ....................... 24 3 Related Work 29 3.1 Existing Approaches ...............................

  • Why Your Company Needs a Reference Management Tool and Four Factors to Consider When Selecting One
    Why your company needs a reference management tool And four factors to consider when selecting one Does the following scenario sound familiar to you? Your company needs to keep on top of the latest research findings to stay competitive. Team members will find and locate PDF articles and save them on their own computers. In another workgroup, the same paper might be found, purchased, and analyzed as well. One year later, the paper might be needed for another project, but since no one could find it on the net- work, it’s then located, purchased, and analyzed again. All of this extra work means wasted time and money for your compa- ny. What’s more, this problem could have been avoided if the PDF and its notes had simply been saved in a place where other team members could find them. Reference management software can help with this challenge, since it provides a central place for saving external literature and making it easy to find again. Originally developed for the university environmvent, reference management programs have been increasingly adopted by knowledge-oriented companies over the past decade. 1/11 Three challenges – finding, saving, and protecting information Reference management software helps with three main challenges that knowledge-oriented companies face: • Being able to pick out useful sources and ideas from the multitude of information that is published and then later find it again. • Working together in a team to create a knowledge repository, thus making each team member’s information and insights available to everyone else in the group. • Protecting this hard-won knowledge from loss or access by third parties.
