+# Urls_Worker
+
+This is the Worker's Application.<br>
+It requests assignments from the [controller](https://code-repo.d4science.org/lsmyrnaios/UrlsController) and processes them.<br>
+[...] <br>
+
+To install and run the application, run ```git clone``` and then execute the ```installAndRun.sh``` script.<br>
+That script, installs the [PublicationsRetriever](https://github.com/LSmyrnaios/PublicationsRetriever), as a library and then compiles and runs the whole Application.<br>
