Introduction

At the DSpace User Group Meeting 2005 in Cambridge there was some interest in developing statistics reporting for DSpace to a greater degree.

• RichardJones - Happy to be involved, especially at the architecture stage, and to devote some development time to bringing this up to what we would like to use at Imperial College.
• LiamLynch - Happy to be involved in discussion of architectural aspects, and hopefully the requirements of the Open Repository project for usage stats can be met by a system that is globally applicable, so that we can get involved with moving the development of that forward generally.
• GaryPhillips - Interested in getting more useful usage statistics (view counts) for items and bitstreams by filtering out robots and crawlers, and displaying counts inside DSpace. Mostly lurking until I get more familiar with some possible solutions.
• [ StuartLewis] - Would like to be involved, and is happy to contribute effort.
• [ Mwood] Mark H. Wood- Interested in view counts and robot identification. Using the University of Rochester code now. Looking into alternate robot filtering methods.
• [ PaulNeedham] - Would like to be involved, happy to contribute effort. Worked on the JISC/PAL3 PIRUS Project looking into producing COUNTER-compliant stats for Journal Articles. Developing own stats suite (very rough and ready in PHP) which allow for per author and per collection stats.
• [ gfarrasb] - Interested in applying educational data mining algorithms to obtain information about user actions in DSpace.
