While I have written a couple of books and dozens of articles, I have never worried if these count for academic purposes. I am not a career academic (only an adjunct) and receive no payment for research publications. So I entered "nil" on the form.

Title: REMOTE PRESENTATION CLIENT-SERVER MORE THAN JUST SCREEN SCRAPER
Author(s): WORTHINGTON, T
Source: AUSTRALIAN COMPUTER JOURNAL Volume: 27 Issue: 1 Pages: 16-16 Published: FEB 1995Times Cited: 0
