Comparison of reference management software
The following tables compare reference management software. General[edit] In the "notes" section, there is a difference between: Operating system support[edit] In the case of web applications, this describes the server OS. Export file formats[edit] This table lists the machine-readable file formats that can be exported from reference managers. Import file formats[edit] This table lists the file formats which may be manually imported into the reference managers without needing to connect to one particular database. Citation styles[edit] Reference list file formats[edit] Word processor integration[edit] Most reference management software supports copy/paste or drag-and-drop of references into any editor. Database connectivity[edit] This table lists the academic databases and search engines which reference managers can import from. Password "protection" and network versions[edit] Some reference managers provide network functionality. References[edit] Bibliography[edit] External links[edit]
Citation Management Tools
Definition: Citation management tools enable researchers to capture bibliographic information about research materials, create bibliographies, add footnotes, and manage research collections. Some citation management tools also make it easy to share references with other researchers. Tools: BibDesk: "BibDesk is a graphical bibliography manager for OS X, providing powerful BibTeX file management for Mac users." Resources: Comparison of Reference Management Software: Wikipedia article with summary information twenty different citation management tools, including cost, license, import/export formats, citation and reference list formats, word processor integration, and ability to connect to external databases.

A Citation Map is a graphical representation that shows the citation relationships (cited references and citing articles) between a paper and other papers using various visualization tools and techniques. Using citation mapping, you can analyze which researchers are citing your papers. You can also choose to organize and color code the results by author, year, journal title, subject category, and more. You can also set up a graphical representation of the papers that you have cited in a published work. Creating a Citation Map From a Full Record page, click the Citation Map link to go to the Citation Map start page where you can begin to create your Citation Map. 1. Forward Only: View records that cite the selected target (focus) record whose name appears in the title bar at the top of the page. Backward Only: View records that the target record cites. Forward and Backward: View both forward and backward records. 2. 3. Citation Map with Forward and Backward Views Citation Map Panels A close Edit
Automatic Graph Layout
Microsoft Automatic Graph Layout (MSAGL), formerly known as GLEE, is a .NET tool for laying out and visualizing directed graphs. You can use MSAGL to represent complex directed graphs, such as those found in business management, manufacturing, and network analysis, as well as phylogenetic trees, which are used in bioinformatics research. MSAGL is now available for purchase at the Microsoft online store. Microsoft Automatic Graph Layout, formerly known as Graph Layout Execution Engine (GLEE), is a .NET tool for laying out and visualizing directed graphs. GLEE is still available as a free download. Differences between GLEE and Automatic Graph Layout: Automatic Graph Layout includes several new layout methods: MDS, Ranking, and Phylogenetic tree layout.In Automatic Graph Layout, you can edit the graph through the UI, which is not possible with GLEE.Many bugs of GLEE are fixed in Automatic Graph Layout.GLEE cannot be used for commercial purposes.
