This paper describes a Semantic MediaWiki, a MediaWiki extended to include the ideas of Semantic Web. The proposed Semantic MediaWiki works as an integrated system for content management and metadata management.

Experiences and problems during setting up of actual CSWC offering working environments have an important impact on the conception of Cooperative Buildings. Infrastructure for CSCW working environments must deal with a set of very inhomogeneous needs, e.g., media and device control, access control, communication capabilities, cooperation aware software etc. For reaching an adequate usability of...

Share it! is a European project with a focus on developing concepts and solutions for interconnecting digital TV settop boxes that enable users to share TV-programmes. One important goal of the project is to set future standards, e.g. in content management and rights management, for broadband connected digital television. This paper introduces the project objectives and the consortium, and then...

We present an environment for executing engineering simulations and visualizing results in a Virtual Environment. The work is motivated by the necessity of finding effective solutions for collaboration of team workers during the execution of complex Petroleum Engineering projects. By means of a Scientific Workflow Management System users are able to orchestrate the execution of different simula...

Content management systems use various strategies to store and manage information. One of the most usual methods encountered in commercial products is to make use of the file system to store the raw content information, while the associated metadata is kept synchronized in a relational database management system. This strategy has its advantages but we believe it also has significant limitation...

This paper describes a general framework for implementing dynamic routing and operational integrity control mechanisms in a Workkow Management System (WMS). The framework consists of three techniques: workkow control matrices, sequence constraints , and event-based constraints. These techniques are described and illustrated by means of example applications. We show how these techniques can expl...

This article describes NeoSite: a content management system that facilitates clear separation between content, logic and design. The system has a modular architecture and it’s user interface is modeled (customized) using XML. The content is represented as a tree, whose nodes are called “datacells”. The definition of a datacell is composed from: a list of attributes, the relationship specificati...

The Learning Activity Management System (LAMS) is new authoring software designed to support collaborative, activity-driven learning. This paper reports on a pilot study of the implementation of LAMS in different disciplines at University level and in different grades and subjects at Australian schools. The results suggest that LAMS is an extraordinarily adaptable system that can be used effect...

This article presents the process of design and implementation of a holistic knowledge management infrastructure for R&D organizations from human resources (HR) perspective. The approach addresses HR challenges such as support for an open and flexible organizational structure, support for managing the specific assets of an R&D organization, supports for analysis and reporting, both internally a...

Workflow management systems are now widely deployed for handling administrative and production applications. In order that the workflow management systems keep supporting a larger range of applications, several research works have been launched to improve the workflow technology. This paper reports on the CORVETTE [1] project, an experiment in developing a cooperative workflow management system...
