Abstract
Computational systems that facilitate the tasks of the customer are frequently used, both for professional and personal purposes. However, in some cases, the computer system does not meet the users’ needs. In this article, two computational infrastructures based on the use of web-scraping are described, which improve the functionality of the original infrastructures. Xerka Online allows the creation and maintenance of a researcher’s curriculum vitae (CV) by searching his/her publications and their updated quality indicators (impact factor and cites). Minerva manages the quality assessment reports in the Faculty of Engineering of Vitoria-Gasteiz. To that end, it downloads the grade records from GAUR (a web-application of the University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU), calculates statistics, and merges reports generated in different levels of the quality assessment process. The main advantages of these applications are time reduction and avoidance of human errors.
