Abstract



Recent developments in Web technology can be used for semantic enhancement
of scholarly journal articles, by aiding publication of data and metadata
and providing 'lively' interactive access to content. Such semantic
enhancements are already being undertaken by leading STM publishers, and
automated text processing will help these enhancements become affordable and
routine. Publisher, editor, and author all have primary roles in that
process; an incremental approach is needed. Publication of data and metadata
to the Web make possible added-value 'ecosystem services'; semantic
publishing will bring substantial benefits to scholarly communication.
