TimeLine Magic

Written by lac on March 8, 2010 – 11:04 am -

Since timelines seem to be a key artefact for helping external parties (e.g. journalists) understand the gradual buildup of research contributions in an area, it seems appropriate that we should devote some resource to helping make timelines.

To this end we are looking at creating appropriate feeds from our three main school databases (eprints, projects and press releases) so that each will produce an ATOM feed of formatted entries corresponding to searches on a particular topic. These can then be used to automatically create a timeline, which can then be edited in the TimeLine desktop application for clarity.
