Researchers spend the majority of their time twofold – producing output and then looking for the output of others to, in turn, help them produce more output. For both of these activities, computers assist us. Unfortunately, the latter activity is a challenge because we often provide information in a way that is hard for the computer to understand; computers like structured information to provide meaningful knowledge. Therefore, the more structured our research output, the better computers can help us with our research.

LEIbits is a lean approach to self-reporting research findings in a structured way so that you can in turn more easily find and use them with the help of the computer. For more information see: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15222956
