Abstract:
Research and Development departments of most important companies
are currently producing technical documents and papers as a result of their
own investigation projects. This type of documents normally develop concepts
and ideas that often lead to a contribution to knowledge (or possibly to simple
information) that may be interesting for other research projects in the
department or for further investigation. In that kind of environments, a system
for publishing and sharing information become a requirement for the success
of the department.
Although many approaches to solve this problem have already been
considered, such as shared system files and mailing lists, all of them offer to
the user limited services and require extra input information to know which
documents are of interest to each user. Besides, the growing demand for web
based interactive solutions and for personalization has made them become
obsolete.
This project will investigate the design of an automated system for the
publication of technical documents on the World Wide Web. Using a simple
interface, its distributed users will be able to publish the results of their
research, and, automatically, the system will make the new document
available for the rest of the users (once reviewed if necessary) by linking it
from appropriate document collections, by building searching indices to allow
to look for the document using keywords. The publication of a new document
will be announced to potentially interested readers by emailing a notification
to them; to decide who might be interested in a new document, the system will
keep information about interests and past interactions with the system for
each authorized user. Other features that the system will provide (if
necessary) are the possibility of feedbacking information to report authors and
publishing the same document in different formats.
