 The Worker's Application, requests assignments from the [**Controller**](https://code-repo.d4science.org/lsmyrnaios/UrlsController) and processes them with the help of the [__PublicationsRetriever__](https://github.com/LSmyrnaios/PublicationsRetriever) software and downloads the available full-texts.<br>
 Then, it posts the results to the Controller, which in turn, requests from the Worker, the full-texts which are not already found by other workers, in batches.<br>
