Graph Grammar for the Research Information Collection Method According to Research Activities

To share information more effectively in a laboratory, this study develops a method to collect and visualize research documents as well as research activities efficiently without exception. First, this paper introduces a research information relation graph that reflects research activities that obtain information. Furthermore, this paper makes research activities modeled as productions that help to generate the graph and defines the graph grammar, which generates a research information relation graph, by using the production. It is expected that conducting research in accordance with this grammar can reduce the burden of laboratory members in making research information graphs and make information sharing easy by visualizing both research documents and the context information. Customizing the graph grammar in accordance with a particular scenario and applying this method to various scenarios can make it easy to realize a system for collecting and sharing research information in different research fields.
