The subject “Science and Technology in the First World War” has so far been treated from the perspective on inventions and the development of new weapons, and often the focus has been on the topic of chemical warfare at the expense of other important dimensions. The approach of this Archival Research Guide, by contrast, comes from the social sciences and focuses on the establishment of relevant scientific, military and governmental bodies and on the personal networks established during the war. By examining these institutions and networks country by country, comparisons between them can be drawn, enabling further research with regard to the sociology of institutions. By pointing to the connections and channels of exchange between the nations and institutions under consideration, this approach opens up a transnational perspective and supports the paradoxal insight that transnational ties can dissolve national obstacles while simultaneously strengthening the nation-states themselves. On the individual level, the ARG takes the role of intellectuals into account, for whom scientific objectivity / neutrality and patriotic commitment seemed to have been no contradiction. It is remarkable that the First World War led to the establishment of several institutions aiming at funding science through the state, most notably in the case of France (CNRS), the U.S. (NACA/NASA) and Russia (KEPS).

The core of the our programme exists of two half-day workshops on software packages that may help the researcher automate some aspects of the transcription process. The first will deal with ABBYY, still one of the best software packages around for OCRing digitised print materials. Focusing on the software’s possible advantages and pitfalls, this workshop will show the participants how to prepare their documents in order to achieve the best OCR (optical character recognition) results. The second workshop will introduce Transkribus, a software package that has recently made great advancements in optically recognising characters in handwritten materials.

Different aspects related to higher education programs in Digital Humanities (DH), whether, what and how they should be organized, are currently discussed at many higher education institutions in Nordic countries and beyond. The aim of this proposed workshop at DHN 2017 is to bring together scholars, educators and others interested in different aspects of Digital Humanities education to explore the current potential and challenges and opportunities related to the teaching and learning of Digital Humanities.

D-Net Software Toolikt The D-NET Software Toolkit is a system that offers functionalities for the collection (“harvesting”), transformation, aggregation, and indexing of metadata records collected from an arbitrary number of data sources, complying with different protocols and data exchange formats. D-NET sets a workflow language, which developers can use to combine a variety of D-NET data management services, configure them to handle data according to given data models, and pipeline them into autonomic data processing workflows. This software package is a simplified version of the D-Net toolkit and consists of a web application with a minimal set of services for: Collection of metadata records in oai_dc format via OAI-PMH, FTP, local file system, HTTP. Transformation of the collected metadata records into an internal format named DMF (Driver Metadata Format) Indexing of DMF records in a Solr full-text index OAI-PMH export of aggregated metadata records in DMF and oai_dc formats. More formats can be added at runtime by providing a dedicated XSLT from DMF to the desired target format. Major changes in version 1.3.0 OAI Publisher: fixed cache management fixed oai consistency (post feed) workflow branch fixed deletion of content when workflow of data sources are deleted D-Net enabling services: using cache for subscription access support only one subscription registry Mongo based services (mdstore, oaistore, wf logging): using API of mongo-java-driver 3.2.2, removed usage of deprecated methods tracking the number of stored records to possibly highlight the collection of records with the same identifier GUI: enabling deletion of APIs via GUI enabling editing of metadata_identifier_path more info available in the datasource section removed map of data sources (TODO: adapt to the new google map API) Metadata collection: handling HTML illegal entities in collected XMLs Indexing: default query operator for "bag of words" queries set to AND instead of OR Workflow manager do not launch workflows that were scheduled for execution during a pause of the aggregation system ("prepare for shutdown") Official Web Site: http://www.d-net.research-infrastructures.eu Need support?
