XMLResearcherProfile is a technology for tracking and presenting academics’ profile. In its early stage, it allows to record all the published papers (in proceedings, journals, posters and phd thesis) within a single XML file and afterwards it allows to format them as a list in a HTML page. Using specific XML tags it is possible to describe all the meaningful information about each published papers, such as title, authors, year of publication, book title and web sources. Initially, all these tags were specified using a DTD file (rpDTD.dtd), while lately an XML schema (rpSchema.xml) replaced it. The new schema contains a set of rules to describe all the tags that the XML file can contain. An instance of published paper with its relative tags is presented below.
