QEAVis: Quantitative Evaluation of Academic Websites Visibility

The project proposes the application of HLT to an important problem such as the measurement of the academic visibility in the web, giving the basis of a quantitative evaluation of the universities departments’ commitment in the public access to their information. Web indicators (Cybermetrics) must be developed and applied to the study of the academic websites visibility, with special focus on the presence of the Spanish language (of strategic importance) and the academic areas related to humanities (which need special help for their web positioning).
