Personal Navigation in Semantic Wikis

In this paper, we propose a personal navigation approach to Semantic Wikis. In semantic wikis, wikis pages are annotated with semantic data to facilitate research and navigation. The navigation is collaborative designed and shared by every user. However, individuals involved in a collaborative knowledge building activity need to customize the navigation according to her personal needs. In order to overcome this, we extend semantic wikis with personal annotations facilities to support personal navigation. This approach differs from other adaptive navigation approaches, because of the personalization is carried out by the user herself. We have implemented and validated these ideas on the top of a P2P semantic wiki.
