Kannan P, Scientist C (LS)
Asha Vaghela, Project Associate (CS)

As part of the Expert Database and Researcher’s Network system, the Centre has customized the VIVO
Profile Management System to organize the research related information and support the organization
to develop the self-sustained profile management system. The Centre has developed the beta version of

Profile Management System using customized VIVO for Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar as
shown in Figure 12. The interface has the facility to describe the expertise using standard vocabulary
such as AGROVOC, GEMET, LCSH, UMLS, etc and organize the scholarly communication data using
linked data. The system generates co-author network and map of science network based on the

publications. The end user can view the area of expertise of organisation or the faculty/scientists
through graphical representation.
