XML content server provider Mark Logic Corporation, US, has announced that the American Institute of Physics (AIP) has used MarkLogic Server to launch its new mobile e-Reader application, iResearch. iResearch was developed to provide the AIP community of researchers, comprising physicists, engineers, scientists, and students, with mobile access to valuable physics journal content. Users may access iResearch via the Apple iTunes store to download the application for version 3.0 and higher.
In addition to readily accessing AIP content through a Wi-Fi network or cellular connection, iResearch enables users to optionally save files in PDF format on their iPhone or iPod Touch devices for offline viewing. Users may navigate through journals online and then select articles they wish to read. Once the PDF file has been delivered to the device, users can save it to read at their convenience when they are offline. The journals currently available in the iResearch application include: Applied Physics Letters, Biomicrofluidics, Chaos, Journal of Applied Physics, The Journal of Chemical Physics, Journal of Mathematical Physics, Journal of Physical and Chemical Reference Data, Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy, Low Temperature Physics, Physics of Fluids, Physics of Plasmas and Review of Scientific Instruments.
MarkLogic Server allows AIP to load its journal articles directly, combining XML content, documents, and books into a single, centralised repository. AIP can now get started more quickly when creating new applications like iResearch, which extend the value of its information by making it accessible to users in a wide range of delivery options.
