• Objective
• To give the researcher the possibility to create
  his/her personal academic
• profile
• To be composed in a user friendly manner from
  various existing resources, containing
  information on the core elements of his/her
  scientific work.
• To be archived and managed in a systematic way.
• To be outputted in a selective way and various
  formats (XML, HTML, RTF, PDF) towards relevant

Target Group

• Not again only the existing scientific highflyers
• But all
• Scientists (mid-career) who want (or have) to
  strenghten and improve their international image
  and profile.
• Scientists (early career) who still have to build
  their international image and recognition.

PROMAS a summary

• Goal of the PROMAS system is to supply
  information on request of an actor or machine.
• The information supplied in a profile is totally
  and automatically derived from other resource
  systems.
• The system offers the researchers the possibility
  to create various (different) profiles targeted
  to specific stakeholders and to edit and add
  information to a profile at any stage.
• Apart from this PROMAS has some pre-defined
  default profiles (e.g. According to the
  standard format of the web site of the institute
  of the researcher in question), and
• Offers the scientist the possibiliy to present
  the information in various formats.
