Overview

The first DELOS Working Group, partially funded by the European Union, laid the foundations for the establishment of a European Research Community on Digital Libraries. The conference has become a notable European forum focusing on digital libraries and associated technical, practical, and social issues. [3] [4] The conference invites papers on the wide range of topics of interest in this field, to the national and international community.

Conferences

As the European Conference on Research and Advanced Technology for Digital Libraries (ECDL).

In 2011 the conference was renamed to International Conference on Theory and Practice of Digital Libraries (TPDL).

The Corfu incident was a 1923 diplomatic and military crisis between Greece and Italy. It was triggered when Enrico Tellini, an Italian general heading a commission to resolve a border dispute between Albania and Greece, was murdered in Greek territory along with two other officers of his staff. In response, Benito Mussolini issued an ultimatum to Greece and, when it was not accepted in whole, dispatched forces to bombard and occupy Corfu. Mussolini defied the League of Nations and stated Italy would leave if it arbitrated in the crisis, and the Conference of Ambassadors instead eventually tendered an agreement favouring Italy. This was an early demonstration of the League's weakness when dealing with larger powers.

Co-citation Proximity Analysis (CPA) is a document similarity measure that uses citation analysis to assess semantic similarity between documents at both the global document level as well as at individual section-level. The similarity measure builds on the co-citation analysis approach, but differs in that it exploits the information implied in the placement of citations within the full-texts of documents.
