Even if solving Markovian systems is usual for dependability engineers, the choice of an adequate method to compute these systems is an actual problem for them. The object of this technical note is to contribute to the practician's information by presenting a comparison between the performances of t

✦ Synopsis
This study compares some of the behavioural characteristics of two recommender systems for scholarly articles in a digital library: a usage-based recommender and an experimental citation-based recommender. Experimental results show that article recommendations based only on usage data are slightly better at solving the perennial datasparsity problem that plagues collaborative filtering recommenders in digital libraries. However, citation-based recommendations are more semantically diverse and have less in common with conventional search results than the usage-based method. However both of these methods are complementary since most of the time if one recommender produces a list of recommendations the other does not.
