  • A Wiki-Based Authoring Tool for Collaborative Development of Multimedial Documents
    MEDIA2MULT – A WIKI-BASED AUTHORING TOOL FOR COLLABORATIVE DEVELOPMENT OF MULTIMEDIAL DOCUMENTS Author Name * Affiliation * Address * Author Name * Affiliation * Address * * Only for Final Camera-Ready Submission ABSTRACT media2mult is an extension for PmWiki developed at our university. It provides functionality for embedding various media files and script languages in wiki pages. Furthermore media2mult comes with a cross media publishing component that allows to convert arbitrary wiki page sequences to print-oriented formats like PDF. This article gives an overview over the offered extensions, their functionality and implementation concepts. KEYWORDS wiki, multimedia, cross-media-publishing, authoring tool, XML 1. INTRODUCTION At least since the founding of the free web encyclopedia Wikipedia and its increasing popularity wiki web , wiki-wiki or just wiki are widely known terms in context of Web 2.0. However, their exact meaning often remains unclear. Sometimes wiki and Wikipedia are actually used synonymously. The crucial functionality of every wiki system is the possibility to edit wiki web pages directly inside a browser by entering an easy to learn markup language. Thus, manual uploads of previously edited HTML files are superfluous here. The user doesn't even have to know anything about HTML or external HTML editors. The browser- and server-based concept makes it possible that several authors can edit and revise common documents without the necessity of exchanging independently written and updated versions. Because most wiki systems offer an integrated version management system, authors can easily merge their changes and revert selected passages to former stages. Thus, accidentally or deliberately applied changes of protected or publicly accessible wiki pages can be taken back in a second.

Eklundh Copyright © 2012 Angelo Di Iorio et al. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. The “WikiWay” is the open editing philosophy of wikis meant to foster open collaboration and continuous improvement of their content. Just like other online communities, wikis often introduce and enforce conventions, constraints, and rules for their content, but do so in a considerably softer way, expecting authors to deliver content that satisfies the conventions and the constraints, or, failing that, having volunteers of the community, the WikiGnomes, fix others’ content accordingly. Constrained wikis is our generic framework for wikis to implement validators of community-specific constraints and conventions that preserve the WikiWay and their open collaboration features. To this end, specific requirements need to be observed by validators and a specific software architecture can be used for their implementation, that is, as independent functions (implemented as internal modules or external services) used in a nonintrusive way.

  • Using Wikis in Software Development
    open source Editor: Christof Ebert ■ Alcatel ■ [email protected] Using Wikis in Software Development Panagiotis Louridas In only a few years, wikis have become one of the most popular tool shells imaginable based on open source software.
