A corporate semantic wiki for scientific workflows

State-of-the-art business process management tools provide only limited support for weakly-structured scientific workflow processes which involve knowledge intensive human interactions and are subject to frequent changes and agile compensations and exceptions. In order to address these shortcomings we propose a novel combination of a BPM system with a Corporate Semantic Web wiki. The user-friendliness of the later as regarding multi-site content generation and the power of semantic technologies as w.r.t. organizing and retrieving organizational knowledge, business rules and business vocabularies are likely to complement one another, leading to a new generation of collaborative Web 3.0 BPM tools. -- Semantic WIKI ; scientific workflows, e-science infrastructure ; virtual e-laboratories ; business process management ; semantic web ; Web 3.0
