Abstract:
This paper presents a vision for the future of the e-books which
entails further development of technologies that will facilitate the creation
and use of a new generation of "smart" books: e-books that are evolving,
highly interactive, customisable, adaptable, intelligent, and furnished with
a rich set of collaborative authoring and reading support services. The
proposed set of tools will be integrated into an intelligent framework for collaborative book authoring and experiencing called SmartBook. The paper
promotes the idea that the semantic technologies, intensively developed recently in connection with the Semantic Web initiative, can be incorporated
in the book and become the key factor of making it "smarter".
