Dagstuhl Research Online Publication Server
Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz Center for Informatics has been operating the Dagstuhl Research Online Publication Server (short: DROPS) since 2004. DROPS enables publication of the latest research findings in a fast, uncomplicated manner, in addition to providing unimpeded, open access to them. All the requisite metadata on each publication is administered in accordance with general guidelines pertaining to online publications (cf.
Dublin Core). This enables the online publications to be authorized for citation and made accessible to a wide readership on a permanent basis. Access is free of charge for readers in keeping with the
open access idea which fosters unimpeded access to scientific publications.
The Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings series is published via the server, with one volume being featured per Dagstuhl Seminar.
The organizers of other events are also afforded the opportunity of publishing on DROPS in a cost-effective, convenient and immediate manner.
This server is also open for journals.
For detailed information, please refer to the DROPS description.
