Intern:EPIC

ePIC is the Open Access and publication repository of the Alfred Wegener Institute, accessible at
 * http://epic.awi.de

As part of the PANGAEA Network, ePIC is used (as a handle-generator) to archive documents related to data sets in Pangaea. If the citation of a document is defined and the document is uploaded, ePIC provides a handle which is used in Pangaea to be linked to, e.g. in the fields Reference/URI or Data set/URL Data details or in any free comment text.
 * e.g.

The entry of documentation citations in ePIC is restricted to librarain status (hgrobe@pangaea.de). If more than 30 citations need to be entered, a list of citations with pdf-files can be imported via a script.

For the new version planned in 2008-03 various software solutions were considered:
 * AVANO of IFREMER
 * FEDORA with MURADORA as frontend
 * FEDORA - eSciDoc - PubMan
 * DSPACE
