Mathematical Sciences: Electronic Journal Document Handler

该合同将使电子期刊生产环境的开发和部署成为可能。基于网络的应用程序，将特别适合远程合作研究和写作活动，将使用复杂的在线编辑功能。这将包括详细的版本控制和收集和显示评论的规定（在准备阶段和出版后）。20世纪90年代将是电子期刊出现的十年。精心组织的开发工作对于成功地做到这一点至关重要。适当的人员和适当的工具可以提供信心，使人们相信这项工作将为这些开发产生适当技术的有价值的演示。

This award will enable development and deployment of a production environment for an electronic journal. The network- based application, which will be particularly suited for remote collaborative research and writing activities, will use sophisticated on-line editing capabilities. These will include detailed version-control and provision for the collection and display of comments (during both the preparation phase and post- publication). The 1990s will be the decade of appearance of the electronic journal. Carefully structured development efforts are essential to doing this successfully. The right people and the right tools are available to provide confidence that this effort will produce a valuable demonstration of the appropriate technology for these developments.
