did-spec-registries VS ORCID-Source

Anyone can create a DID method. Companies or communities may create a custom DID method to fit a specific use case or live on a specific type of ledger. However, to ensure the DID method is recognized, interoperable, and meets the correct standards, it's strongly recommended to include the DID method on the W3C DID Spec Registry.

Many organizations are working hard to answer this question. Some are going passwordless via passkeys. Others, like the Open Researched and Contributor ID (ORCID), implemented digital identifiers to associate publications, research, and open source contributions with a particular researcher.

Here are a few options to consider. First, Google Scholar. If you're logged into Google it will make a handful of recommendations on its front page. I've not really paid attention to how good the recommendations are. It says they're based on your Google Scholar record and alerts, so I guess you'll need both/one of those for it to work.

Second, Scopus from Elsevier (a company that plenty of people dislike). You'll need to create an account, and I don't know if non-academic accounts have the same access as academic ones. It has a new "researcher discovery" function I've not used so again can't vouch for its quality. You can set up various alerts apparently, although again I've not used them.

If an author is registered on ORCID you can check their works, but it doesn't appear that anything like RSS feeds are available, unfortunately. Plenty of journals have RSS feeds, but you'll have to hunt them down yourself.

Finally, you might want to check out other platforms and preprint servers, which might have better alerts etc. Try OSF, which hosts a bunch of preprint servers, and also provides hosting for documents and files that accompany published papers. However, it looks like there isn't much comp-sci stuff on there.

I guess you could have a look at figshare.com too for similar reasons.

You will get an OrcIDto keep all the pubs associated with you.

Get an ORCID- its there for this reason.

Hi everyone! I am a collections manager in the US at a state natural history museum that’s part of a state university, and I am a researcher. I’m hoping to get some advice on how you list your affiliation on various profiles and webforms if you work at a museum that is part of a university. Specifically, I was struggling with what to put for my ORCID profile, which feeds into Bionomia.

Do what you want and get and use ORCID ids. It'll be required for federal funding soon anyhow. https://orcid.org/
