  Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF) is a public research university in Barcelona,
  Spain, ranked #266 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public
  developer footprint centers on the "UPF en Xifres 2.0" linked open data portal
  (data.upf.edu), which exposes institutional datasets via a CKAN action API and
  a Virtuoso SPARQL endpoint, and on the UPF Digital Repository (e-Repositori),
  built on DSpace 7.6 with a public REST API and an OAI-PMH harvesting endpoint.
  Identity is handled through an adAS / Shibboleth SAML single sign-on service.
  Most other software is published by research groups (e.g. the Music Technology
  Group) on GitHub rather than as institutional APIs.
