Darbo tikslas – Wiki technologijos panaudojimo galimybės elektroninių dokumentų valdymui ir saugojimui. Analitinėje dalyje buvo apžvelgti siūlomi problemos sprendimo budai: dokumentų valdymo sistemos ir internetinių programų sistemos. Sistemų įvertinimui buvo atlikta apklausa. Nustatyta, kad dokumentų valdymo sistemos tinka stambioms įmonėms, apdorojančioms didelius dokumentų kiekius bei reikalaujančioms sudėtingo dokumentų valdymo, o internetinės sistemos - smulkiam verslui. Pasiūlytas universalus problemos sprendimas, kuris tinka ir stambioms, ir smulkioms įmonėms - wiki technologija. Atlikta wiki technologijos galimybių ir wiki programinės įrangos analizės. Projektinėje dalyje suprojektuota siūloma wiki sistema. Eksperimentinėje dalyje aprašytas bandomosios wiki sistemos diegimo procesas bei vartotojų atsiliepimai. / Project‘s goal is to show how the same technology used in Wiki, can be implemented as a means to administrate and store e-documents. “Analytical approaches” – this is where solutions to project problems are analyzed, such as systems for administrating documents and free services provided by the Internet. To determine usage of each solution a survey have been done: documents administration systems are more preferred by large companies that need to process huge amounts of information and need advanced document control capabilities, while smaller companies are satisfied with simpler and free systems which provided by the Internet. A universal solution is presented, that both types of companies can find acceptable – document administration system based on Wiki technology. Tests were made and then performed to see what can be achieved with it, such as capabilities and actual systems already based on Wiki technology. After analyzes a draft is made of the planed system. The install process for trial version of the Wiki based system and user comments about it are at the end of this document.

During the practical use of Design Automation (DA) System in a company, the lack of assistance from either documentation work about the whole system or management of knowledge could bring out some obstacles when engineers reuse existing knowledge and information. The purpose of this project is to explore an approach of documentation and knowledge management in DA System. The study is mainly based on the actual case of seat heater DA system developed by JTH. Based on preset functional requirement for the potential solution, several principles and methods of documentation and knowledge management are introduced such as MOKA, CommonKADS, SysML and PVM. A number of useful applications such as DRed (Design Rationale Editor), PC PACK, Sementic MediaWiki and Product Model Manager became candidates solutions for this project. The selection of final approach was Sementic MediaWiki, and this is based on the comparison of the result from evaluation of functionality of each application. Due to specificity of documentation on the DA system, the “process based” approa­ch­ had been used for structuring system included knowledge instead of using a systematical method like either MOKA or CommonKADS completely. Setting up interconnection between different knowledge objects was one of the most important tasks in this project because it enables capturing and retrieving of knowledge. Sementic MediaWiki, a powerful text representative and web-based tool has been used as a platform of representing the whole knowledge and information. With its implementation, the performance of Sementic MediaWiki had been tested accor­ding to the preset functional requirement. After a slight refine process to the solution, the satisfactory result had been achieved, and also proved the applicability of Sementic Wiki in such kind of project.

(in English): This thesis occupies itself with the establishment and development of english versions of the Wikisource and Wikibooks projects, with extension to the czech- language version. It processes the information about the new text making procedure and project text modifications. It deals with content organisation and projects extent. The text pays attention only to the tools provided by the projects, because the provided services are results of processed tools actions. The final part is focused on existing ways of using and possible suggestions of using the projects as information sources.

På webbplatsen arbetsliv.org finns webbsidorna branschkunskap och ämneskunskap innehållandes länkar till andra webbsidor, med fakta kring arbetsmiljö. Webbsidorna riktar sig främst till arbetsmiljöingenjörer och medlemmarna inom organisationerna FTF (Föreningen Teknisk Företagshälsovård) Arbetsmiljö och EHSS, Ergonomi och Human Factors Sällskapet Sverige. Arbetsmiljöingenjörer arbetar med frågor relaterade till branscher inom många olika områden. Därför anses det underlätta deras arbete genom att ha en samlad plats för branschspecifik information. Syftet med uppsatsen är att utveckla webbsidor till en egen domän, arbetsmiljowiki.se, och att utifrån organisationsmedlemmarnas åsikter skapa en wiki med bransch- och ämneskunskap inom arbetsmiljö. För att ta reda på användarnas åsikter genomfördes åtta stycken kvalitativa telefonintervjuer med intervjupersoner från olika åldersgrupper. Litteraturstudier skedde kring val och utveckling av teknisk lösning för att få en bild av de möjligheter som finns. Jämförelsen av tekniska lösningar, analysen av telefonintervjuerna och de uppställda kraven utgör tillsammans ett delresultat. Delresultatet ledde fram till en integration av Facebookinloggning, YouTubelänkar, kommentarsfält och att resultatet arbetsmiljowiki.se utformades enligt organisationsmedlemmarnas åsikter. / Located on the website arbetsliv.org is the webpages branschkunskap and ämneskunskap, containing links to other websites with facts about occupational health and safety. The webpages mainly target themselves towards occupational health engineers and members of the two organization’s FTF (Föreningen Teknisk Företagshälsovård) Arbetsmiljö and EHSS, Ergonomi och Human Factors Sällskapet Sverige. Occupational health engineers work with questions related to industries of many different fields. Therefore, it is considered to facilitate their work by providing a collaborative collection of industry-specific information. The purpose of this thesis is to develop the webpages into an independent domain, arbetsmiljowiki.se, and based on the organization members’ opinions create a wiki about industry and subject knowledge related to occupational health and safety. To collect the users’ opinions, eight qualitative telephone interviews were carried out with interviewees from different age-groups. Literature studies regarding choice of and development of technical solutions were performed in order to obtain a greater picture of the available possibilities. The comparison of technical solutions, analysis of the telephone interviews and the specified requirements together make up a part of the result. One part of the result resulted in an integration of Facebook login, embedded YouTube videos, comment fields and that the final result arbetsmiljowiki.se was shaped as per the organization members’ requests.

AWeb 2.0 coloca em evidência iniciativas que valorizam atividades comunitárias, colaborativas e democráticas. Os processos de filtragem e seleção de artigos para publicação científica caminham na contra-mão destes novos conceitos. A seleção de artigos para publicação, tanto em conferências quanto em periódicos, utiliza abordagens fechadas. O objetivo deste processo fechado é garantir que somente artigos de qualidade sejam publicados. Por outro lado, devido a falta de transparência, o processo fechado está sujeito a uma infinidade de problemas que podem surgir através de equívocos ou até mesmo de tendências anti-éticas. Constam na literatura vários exemplos de problemas com o processo de seleção fechado. Com a consolidação daWeb 2.0, ambientes abertos de edição de conteúdo conquistam cada vez mais espaço. Aproveitam contribuições espontâneas de usuários para crescer rapidamente. A aplicação do processo de edição utilizado por estes ambientes em um contexto de edição e revisão de artigos científicos pode modificar radicalmente o processo utilizado atualmente. Por outro lado, por estarem sujeitos ao acesso de usuários não comprometidos, ambientes abertos não apresentam fortes argumentos para estabelecer confiança entre usuários. Este trabalho apresenta um método dinâmico para indicação de pontos de qualificação aplicado em um protótipo desenvolvido para editoração de artigos. O protótipo segue um processo onde todas as etapas que envolvem edição, revisão e comentários dos artigos são abertas e transparentes. As qualificações indicadas pelo método são geradas a partir de dados quantitativos e qualitativos e são utilizadas para gerar um ranking de qualificação dos usuários. Este ranking tem o objetivo de contribuir para o estabelecimento de confiança entre usuários. / Web 2.0 evidence initiatives over communitarian, collaborative and democratic activities. The filtering processes for selection of papers for scientific publication goes against these new concepts. The selection of paper for publications in conferences and periodics uses closed review. The objective of this closed process is to guarantee the quality of these published papers. On the other hand, the closed process has transparency lack. It is subject to a infinity of problems that can even appear through mistakes or of anti-ethics trends. Some examples of problems with the closed process consists in literature. The consolidation of Web 2.0 brings more attention to open content edition environments. These environments use spontaneous user’s contributions to enlarge quickly. The application of the process used by open content edition environments can strongly change the currently closed process used to selection of scientific publications. On the other hand, the open process is subject to fake or not compromised users. This problem starts a lack of trust for unknown users. This work presents a method for qualification points generation applied in a prototype for edition and review of articles that extends MediaWiki, the Wikipedia’s environment. The prototype implements a process where all steps of edition, comment and review of articles are open. To complete lacks of trust between users, the prototype uses a dynamic qualification method. The qualifications indicated by this method are based in quantitative and qualitative data and the users are listed in a ranking ordered by best ratings.

A field guide is a tool to identify an object of natural history. Field guidescover a wide range of topics from plants to fungi, birds to mammals, and shells to minerals. Traditionally, field guides are books, usually small enough to be carried outdoors . They enjoy wide popularity in modern life; almost every American home and library owns at least one field guide, and the same is also true for other areas of the world. At this time, companies, non-profits, and universities are developing computertechnologies to replace printed field guides for identifying plants. This thesisexamines the state of the art in field guides for plants. First, a framework isestablished for evaluating both printed and digital field guides. Second, fourprint and three digital field guides are evaluated against the criteria. Third, anovel digital field guide is presented and evaluated.

The World Wide Web contains a vast amount of information. This feature makes it a very useful part of our everyday activities but the information contained within is made up of an exponentially increasing repository of semantically unstructured data. The semantic web movement involves the evolution of the existing World Wide web in order to enable computers make meaning of and understand the data they process and consequently increase their processing capabilities. Over the past decade a number of new projects implementing the semantic web technology have been developed albeit still in their infancy. These projects are based on semantic data models and one such is the Wikidata project. The Wikidata project is targeted at providing a more semantic platform for editing and sharing data throughout the Wikipedia and Wikimedia communities. This project studies how the Wikidata project facilitates such a semantic platform for the Wikimedia communities and includes the development of an application utilizing the semantic capabilities of Wikidata. The objective of the project is to develop an application capable of retrieving and presenting statistical data and also be able to make missing or invalid data on Wikidata detectable. The result is an application currently aimed at researchers and students who require a convenient tool for statistical data collection and data mining projects. Usability and performance tests of the application are also conducted with the results presented in the report. Keywords: Semantic web, World Wide Web, Semantic data model, Wikidata, data mining.
