SWIM – A Semantic Wiki for Mathematical Knowledge Management
Abstract:
SWIM is a semantic wiki for collaboratively building, editing and browsing math-
ematical knowledge represented in the structural markup language OMDOC. It has
been designed to enable groups of scientists to develop new mathematical theories in
OMDOC and to enable scholars to browse such a corpus. After a short introduction to
semantic wikis and their usefulness for mathematical knowledge, this article presents
the architecture and the user interface of the current SWI M prototype and outlines the
plans for developing its successor, an ontology-based platform for semantic scientific
services that exploit the knowledge and make it accessible to the user.
