Cybertesis.NET bases its searches on collected data or "harvesting" in the sites that use the Cybertesis Program and that have their port of OAI opened for the consultation. The use of OAI, makes possible that Institutions can share their theses, independent of the platform that use for the generation and indexing of their information. They only must be compatible with this protocol.

Cybertesis.NET uses the program of data collection via OAI called ARC (http://dlib.cs.odu.edu ), developed by the Old Dominion University. The data that ARC collects store in a data base MySQL and scripts of consultation and display of the answers developed in language Perl, although also PHP can be used.
