Abstract

In the publishing process, readers, publishers and writers can profit fromstructured documents. Adding explicit structural information to a document is currently so costly that it is rarely done. We show an application of graph technologyw hich supports authors by offering a possibility to model the concepts to be discussed and their relationships. These semantical structures can then be serialized into multiple ordered hierarchies which provide a framework for formulating the document content. Either of the structures can be edited with the other being kept consistent. Publishers can reduce their copy editing and cross-media publishing cost byu sing this information. We explain the implementation of these operations as a executable graph production system, that is productions as well as the underlying graph schemas.
