DPaper:一种面向语义出版的结构化论文写作工具设计与实现

DPaper: A Structured Paper Authoring Tool for Semantic Publishing

【目的】面向语义出版构建论文写作工具,在论文写作阶段实现内容结构化、对象化,使得一篇论文即是一个系统,论文可运行、可交互、可体验。【方法】采用数字对象和数字模板技术将论文内容(元数据、章节、数据、富媒体等)分解成不同类型数字对象,数字对象间采用模板进行组织,通过事件触发机制实现交互,采用HTML5网页形式进行编辑和呈现并存储为XML结构化文档包。【结果】DPaper结构化论文写作工具已上线,提供从素材收集(云笔记)、数字对象制作、自动标引参考文献、按期刊版式呈现到Word文档格式转换等一系列功能,论文内容实现对象化和部分语义化。【局限】与常规论文编辑器相比,数字对象编辑器功能还不完善,还不能创建公式、图形等对象,排版的灵活性不足。【结论】利用DPaper写作工具可以在写作阶段由作者构建出满足语义出版应用需求的结构化论文。

[Objective] We developed a paper authoring tool for semantic publishing, which makes the article＇s content structured and object-oriented. Each paper is a system with executable, interactive and experiential features. [Methods] First, we divided the content of each paper （metadata, chapters, data, media etc.） into objects organized by digital template. Second, these elements interacted with each other through the event trigger mechanism. Finally, the paper was modified and presented with HTML5 pages, and then, saved as XML documents. [Results] DPaper is available at iDPaper.las.ac.cn, which provides a series of functions such as material collection （cloud notes）, digital object creation, automatic reference indexing, Word document format conversion in accordance with periodical layouts etc. The paper＇s content is object oriented and partial semantization. [Limitations] Compared to conventional paper editors, the DPaper＇s digital object editor could not create formulas or graphics, and is not flexible to change layouts. [Conclusions] DPaper could help us compose a structured paper that meets the requirements of semantic publishing.
