Dados abertos conectados e gestão do conhecimento: Estudos de caso cientométricos em uma Universidade Brasileira

Abstract

This paper is based on the relation of three concepts: Knowledge Management, Scientometrics and Linked Open Data. In the university context, we discuss the promotion of the institutional Knowledge Management with Linked Open Data, considering the Scientometrics field. Based on the Semantic Web best practices, mainly, on the Linked Data Lifecycle process, two datasets are maintained on the Web of Data: a) the historical data of the Qualis Index (2005-2015); and b) a set of periodical publications records extracted from the Lattes Platform. As a result, three case studies are developed, which consume and explore data from these sources. Through these studies, it is concluded that the practices related to Linked Open Data contribute for developing institutional knowledge bases, which can support bibliometric and scientometric studies or some of the Knowledge Management activities in Brazilian universities.
