Scholarly collaboration environments beyond 'Documents'

1. Building Blocks of the future Scholarly Web: Beyond and far beyond The APE Lecture 2010 Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin / School of Library and Information Science [email_address]

3. Main course : Le document selon Roger – the work of RTP-Doc on document deconstruction

4. Dessert : Why we need the humanities to understand all this … and why understanding this process is vital for the humanities!

5. Linear Document Continuum ... … in the Gutenberg galaxy

6. Linear Document Continuum ... … in emulation mode

7. Linear Document Continuum ... … going digital (entering Turing galaxy)

9. Disintegration of the linear / circular functional paradigma

10. Erosion of the monolithic document notion in hypertext paradigms Web Based Scholarly Working Continuum ... … a triple paradigm shift: moving beyond

12. Some basic inferencing (1)

13. Some basic inferencing (2)

14. LoD: Billions of Triples … … and Semantic Publishing!

16. And what constitutes document boundaries??

17. And which node was connected to which one at a given time???

19. loss of the constitutive linearity almost impossible to compensate;

20. loss of the unity of medium and content (which – together with linearity - was a guarantee of document integrity in the Gutenberg galaxy)

24. Philosophy, linguistics, semiology, computer science, mathematics, library and information science.

26. Sign (lu='read', semantics), as meaningful instance and thus both intentionally determined and part of a sign system;

27. Medium (su='Knowledge, Interpretation, Apprehension', Pragmatics) as a vector of communication, part of a social reality with constituting temporal and spatial processes of mediation .

29. Electronic document = structures + data

30. XML-document = structured data + stylesheet

32. How device-independent is 'readability' (W3C fights about XHTML!)?

33. Long term preservation: structure and/or data and/or styles?

34. How far can we push from precoordination to postcoordination?

35. To what extent is the analogy with established cultural object formats costitutive for human perception (e. g. PDF)?

37. Electronic document = informed text + knowledge

38. Semantic Web document = informed text + ontologies

40. Relation of text and markup, of text and metadata.

41. Meaning and reference / denotation: a critique of semantic web signification models.

42. How to generate trust and authenticity?

44. Electronic document = text + procedure

45. Web-Document = publication + measured usage/access

47. What sense do the borders between archives and publication still make?

48. How to generate 'attention'?

49. Who pays? And what for?

51. intellectual (understanding-assimilation) and

53. The text also challenges the monolithic notion of a personal author : behind the pseudonym Roger T. Pédauque more than 60 individual researchers have been actively involved in the drafting of the three volumes.

55. including deconstructed notions of integrity and authenticity

57. Without consistent and clearly established notions of signification and interpretation relating to well understood document objects these disciplines cease to exist.

58. Without these humanities disciplines it will be impossible to re-establish a meaningful document notion in digital environments!

59. Lire Roger!

60. Move well beyond – at least regarding RDF and Semantic Publishing

61. And thank you for your patience and attention.
