Robin: A Systematic Literature Mapping Management Tool
Description
Systematic literature mapping is an essential part of research methodology. Conducting a systematic literature mapping is challenging. Researchers query publications from various sources, which need to be filtered, categorized, and cleared of duplicates. It is usually the case that the number of publications ranges between hundreds to thousands. The whole process is often performed iteratively and repeatedly, especially at the start of the mapping study, which only further increases the effort. When a team of researchers conducts a mapping study, the members may have different opinions on filtering and categorizing papers, which must be resolved. To our knowledge, this problem is very poorly supported by open-source tools. To address these issues, we present a tool called Robin which facilitates managing the steps of conducting a mapping study within a team. It provides search tools, categorization, and a platform for team members to define their criteria for including and excluding papers. In addition, Robin is connected to publicly available publications search platforms such as IEEE API and Scopus API. Robin is written in Python-Django and can be installed as a web service.
