Summary
The Bibster system is an application of the use of semantics in Peer-to-Peer systems, which is aimed at researchers that share bibliographic metadata. In this paper we describe the design and implementation of recommender functionality in the Bibster system which allows personalized access to the bibliographic metadata available in the Peer-to-Peer network. These functions are based on a semantic user profile which is created from content and usage information as well as a similarity function. Furthermore, these functions make use of the semantic topology of the Peer-to-Peer system.
