GAPworks is the online publication system developed in the GAP project (funded by the German Research Foundation, DFG).
GAPworks provides the necessary infrastructure for online publishing (including a peer-reviewing process) and online management of persons, roles and other elements of the publishing process. Various types of publications can be processed from submission to publication.
Metadata are extracted in an OAI-PMH compatible format and made available to service providers.
GAPworks is based on a PostgreSQL database and is programmed in PHP. The use of SMARTY templates allows individually designed interfaces. It is designed based on Unicode/UTF-8.
Specific and individual support is done by the Institute for Science Networking.
