Mathematical Markup Languages
As a result of several previous projects there is now a broad community of people using semantic markup for mathematics, like MathML and OpenMath, in a variety of ways. Activities in the areas of publishing, e-learning, web services and conventional mathematical software are all in progress and all contribute to the production of high-quality digital material in mathematics. In Europe and in this network there are several key players in the development of technologies for the delivery of mathematics on the semantic web. This task aims at coordinating the developer community of standards for semantic markup of mathematics such as:
* MathML and OpenMath, in particular Content Dictionaries (CDs) support ,
* WebALT Course Content Dictionaries for e-learning metadata, in addition to the standards LOM and SCORM , and multilingual technology
* OMDoc and MathDox for mathematical documents
* MathQTI for mathematical exercises
Several conversion tools, for example XSLT stylesheets, have been developed to transform between the various formats and to allow capturing notational preferences arising from regional and cultural differences. Members of this network have developed several tools to handle mathematical markup and will provide support and guidance on how these techniques will enhance the quality of digital mathematical material. It is an important task of the network portal to make sure that the possibilities of converting legacy material, and of authoring semantic markup in LaTeX, MS-PowerPoint, and Mathematica are made visible to content stakeholders.
