Abstract

In this paper, we present Concordia INdexing and DIscovery (CINDI) system, a digital library system for academics. The CINDI system distinguishes itself from other existing digital libraries by its extended functionalities, which provide the academic communities a unified platform for exploring, browsing, uploading and annotating academic and scientific documents under various topics. This paper briefly introduces the nine components of the CINDI system and presents their integration process. The emphasis of this paper is placed on two salient features of the CINDI system: Automatic Semantic Header Generator and Virtual Question Answering System.
