Abstract
Indico is the main conference event manager where talks in high energy physics are
published online. Indico allows to access presentation from conferences, but it does not yet organize them coherently or make them easily citable by others. To solve this, we want to write code for Indico users that saves not only presentations used during conferences but also their metadata. This will make it easier to find the presentations, going from looking for a needle in a haystack to searching for a book in the library. The code from this thesis will upload the presentation and its metadata to its own web page on the Zenodo repository, which will give it its own personal Digital Object Identifier (DOI), which is the equivalent of a social security...

The code from this thesis will upload the presentation and its metadata to its own web page on the Zenodo repository, which will give it its own personal Digital Object Identifier (DOI), which is the equivalent of a social security number for a digital document. The Zenodo webpages created will show how many times the work has been viewed or downloaded, it tells the reader which version is uploaded in case of multiple versions, contains the date it was uploaded, shows information and links about the conference where the work has been presented and which groups it might interest, presents information about the license it is shared under and is indexed in the European Open Science Infrastructure, for open scholarly and scientific communication (OpenAIRE) so people can search for it.
