WikiHomePageWikiHomePageThis wiki is for Collaborative Work Environment issues, currently focused on Semantic Distance. A wiki-base collaborative report can be found at IntroDuction. Please review and contribute. (4O)
The wiki and associated tools (including the Semantic Distance email list) are open to support the community-based effort toward methods and tools. This infrastructure is provided by the Manufacturing Systems Integration Division of NIST and Interop. (4N)

The wiki is intended for use by trusted team and members of the community for collaborative documentation. What we have here is a read-and-write web, as opposed to the traditional read-only web sites. It is a collaborative authoring tool. You can also treat it like the restaurant napkin that you sketch on, to share ideas with people sitting around the table. Except, this time, the wiki is your napkin, and the people you are sharing your ideas with can be all around the world, sitting in front of their computing device connected to the Internet; and they don't even necessarily have to be there at the same time you are sketching.

First time users should read more about the WikiWikiWeb and then play in the SandBox. Text formatting rules for UseModWiki (the flavor of wiki we employ here) are at TextFormattingRules. For rules about this Wiki, read our WikiStyleGuide and WikiProcessGuide. Please set your Preferences and assign yourself a "WikiWord" styled user name (like "JaneDoe" or "AbrahamLincoln") before you proceed with a wiki authoring session from a different machine. (3)
