Semantic Annotation in Mathematics and Math-Net
The Math-Net Initiative has developed metadata schemas for some classes of Web resources which are relevant in mathematics which process this information and enable the user to efficiently search and access the information.
Abstract
The Web of the future will provide a huge amount of information. We need better ways for dealing with and managing the information. A qualified semantic annotation of the information plays a key role for the Web of the future. This article gives an overview about the efforts of the mathematical community to build up a distributed and open information and communication system for mathematics: the Math-Net. The Math-Net Initiative has developed metadata schemas for some classes of Web resources which are relevant in mathematics. Math-Net Services process this information and enable the user to efficiently search and access the information.
