Customized Edit Interfaces for Wikis via Semantic Annotations

چکیده
Authoring support for semantic annotations represent the wiki way of the Semantic Web, ultimately leading to the wiki version of the Semantic Web's eternal dilemma: why should authors correctly annotate their content? The obvious solution is to make the ratio between the needed effort and the acquired advantages as small as possible. Two are, at least, the specificities that set wikis apart from other Web-accessible content in this respect: social aspects (wikis are often the expression of a community) and technical issues (wikis are edited "on-line"). Being related to a community, wikis are intrinsically associated to the model of knowledge of that community, making the relation between wiki content and ontologies the result of a natural process. Being edited on-line, wikis can benefit from a synergy of Web technologies that support all the information sharing process, from authoring to delivery. In this paper we present an approach to reduce the authoring effort by providing ontology-based tools to integrate models of knowledge with authoring-support technologies, using a functional approach to content fragment creation that plays nicely with the "wiki way" of managing information.

Towards a Wiki Interchange Format (WIF) Opening Semantic Wiki Content and Metadata
Wikis are increasingly being used in world-wide, intranet and even in personal settings. Unfortunately, current wikis are data islands: people can read and edit them, but machines can only send around text strings without structure. Wiki migration, publishing from one wiki to another one and free choice of syntax hold back broader wiki usage. We define a wiki interchange format (WIF) that allow...
متن کاملFacilitating Structuring of Information for Business Users with Hybrid Wikis
The flexibility and general applicability of wikis make them a valuable tool for information management and collaboration in modern enterprises. Since information in traditional wikis is only stored in form of unstructured text pages, the way it can be accessed by users is limited to fulltext search and navigation along the links in wiki pages. Some wikis try to overcome this limitation by allo...
متن کاملSupporting Personal Semantic Annotations in P2P Semantic Wikis
In this paper, we propose to extend Peer-to-Peer Semantic Wikis with personal semantic annotations. Semantic Wikis are one of the most successful Semantic Web applications. In semantic wikis, wikis pages are annotated with semantic data to facilitate the navigation, information retrieving and ontology emerging. Semantic data represents the shared knowledge base which describes the common unders...
متن کاملA Semantic Wiki Based Light-Weight Web Application Model
Wikis are a well-known Web 2.0 content management platform. The recent introduction of semantic wikis extends the capabilities of conventional wikis by allowing users to edit and query structured semantic annotations (e.g., categories and typed links) rather than plain wiki text. This new feature, as shown in this paper, supports the provision of a novel, transparent, and light-weight social We...
متن کاملHuman Computer Collaboration to Improve Annotations in Semantic Wikis
Semantic wikis are very promising tools for producing structured and unstructured data. However, they suffer from a lack of user provided semantic annotations, resulting in a loss of efficiency, despite of their high potential. This paper focuses on an original way to encourage users to annotate semantically pages. We propose a system that suggests automatically computed annotations to users. U...
