A robot is designed that trawls the Web for full-texts using reference metadata and citation data from the Institute for Scientific Information database and it is unlikely that the OA citation advantage is merely or mostly a self-selection bias (for making only one's better articles OA).

114 Citations2007Samuelle Carlson, Ben Anderson
By analyzing the "life stages" of data in four academic projects, it is shown that these requirements create difficulties for disciplines where tacit knowledge and craft-like methods are deeply embedded in researchers, as well as for disciplines producing non-digital heterogeneous data or data derived from people rather than from material phenomena.

It is argued that engineering breakthroughs alone will not be enough to achieve the outcomes envisaged for e-Science and other global collaborative activities supported by the cyberinfrastructure, and several “solution modalities” can be proposed that feature a modular contractual approach to the flexible design of research collaboration agreements.
