The Changing Face of Publishing (October 2012)Joe Gollner
A presentation made to the Canadian Heritage Ministry on the changing impacting publishing at this time. Complete with a somewhat jaundice view on how well most publishers are adapting. It comes from 2012 which feels like a long time ago but the presentation doesn't really call for much updating.
Back to the future with static site generatorsChris Ward
If you remember when web sites were all created with plain HTML pages, then you'll know that CMSs and dynamic web frameworks saved us and solved all our problems. Or did they? In fact, we instead spend a lot of time customising existing code to meet our requirements, grappling with deployments and then whacking caching on top of over-powered servers to get an ounce of speed.
Static Site Generators aim to sit somewhere in the middle and are perfect for semi-dynamic sites and with a little learning, better for content creators.
In this session, Chris will look at an overview of the principles and options for static site generators and deep dive into one or two to explain further how the work and can fit into your projects.
Practical Content Management: What Really WorksScott Abel
Presented at DocTrain East 2007 Conference by joe Gollner, Stilo International -- This presentation will introduce practical strategies for getting the most out of content component management. While it may seem that the management of content components is a recent phenomenon, there is a significant body of implementation experience, both good and bad, that stretches back over 20 years. This experience showcases what typically works well and what is a recipe for certain disaster. A general framework will be provided that sketches out the range of considerations that should be factored into a complete solution and recommendations will shared on how implementations can be structured to provide the highest chance of success. In order to make the topic as tangible as possible, the presentation will include real-world examples where some of the key challenges associated with deploying DITA have been successfully addressed.
Presented at Intelligent Content 2010 in Palm Springs, California, in February 2010. Takes a rather harsh look at what is usually called "Enterprise Content Management" and declares that none have been realized as yet. It then introduces the concept of "Intelligent Content Management" which is then put forward as what ECM must become in order to succeed. Core of the presentation really focuses on the methodology associated with implementing "Intelligent Content Management" and on explaining why managing intelligent content is so persistently challenging.
Getting a Handle on the Content Life Cycle (April 2014)Joe Gollner
Slides from a Webinar conducted for the Society for Technical Communication (STC) Special Interest Group (SIG) on the Content Life Cycle. It introduces a Content Life Cycle model and situated within the context of a Content Solution framework.
Lots of things are changing for Content Professionals but among the most important is the fact that content has very much become a team sport. This session will look into how the business of content has changed over the last twenty years and what this tells us about future trends. One of these trends merits closer attention and that is the emergence of, or at least the need for, Integrated Content Teams.
Drawing from models developed for “concurrent engineering”, the speaker will introduce approaches to planning and conducting content projects in ways that achieve great results and that sidestep many of the challenges that organizations find themselves saddled with. As an unexpected outcome from this exploration, a picture emergences of a new role for communicators and one that makes communication skills more important than ever. Attendees will take away practical guidelines on how to establish an integrated content team and an awareness of some of the challenges, as well as opportunities, that await the communicator within these environments.
Getting it Right: Building Quality into your Content (July 2014)Joe Gollner

Touching on Digital Transformation, the economics of content, and the history of the content industry, this presentation concludes with a Content Manifesto - seven declarations that define how we, as an industry, should be talking about our work. At one and the same time, this talk is both traditional and radical. If the content manifesto is genuinely adopted then the implementations are massive as are the opportunities.
The Economics of Content (October 2019)Joe Gollner
Virtual Presentation delivered at Lavacon 2019. A bit of a deep dive into some fundamental questions around the nature of the content industry and some of the challenges it has historically faced. In order to stave off depression, it ends with a more positive "Content Manifesto" that declares what needs to be done to redress some of the observed problems in the content industry. Relevant to content management and to open content standards like DITA and XML.
So You Want a CMS (Gnostyx Workshop Lavacon 2016)Joe Gollner
A half-day workshop held at Lavacon 2016 in Las Vegas. A relatively thorough introduction to a proven way to acquire a content management system as part of an overall content solution. Leans towards a more formal approach to selecting and validating a CMS platform than is usually followed. The approach has been proven to be effective in numerous circumstances but is especially valuable when the content infrastructure being selected will play a broad role within an enterprise environment.
Managing Knowledge in the Fractal Enterprise (Retro Alert 1999)Joe Gollner
A blast from the past - a talk I gave at Documation 1999 entitled "Managing Knowledge in the Fractal Enterprise". Interestingly, the themes touched on in this presentation have proved resilient and useful in all the years since. If anything, the ideas seem closer to the mark today than they did 20 years ago!
A presentation given the Center for Information Development Management (CIDM) Content Management Strategies and DITA conference in San Diego 2017. This talk looked at DITA in context of Digital Transformation - so as to consider what this new and changing context means for DITA and what it is that DITA can contribute that is both needed and unique.

CALS and Canadian Government Acquisition 1994Joe Gollner
This is a paper written for, and presented at, CALS Europe 1994 in Paris. It outlines how the principles, and in some cases the technologies, of the Continuous Acquisition and Lifecycle Support (CALS) initiative were applied to complex custom procurement within the Canadian Federal Government.
Coordinating SGML Projects to Maximize Corporate Benefits was the original title from this 1995 article. Although it hails from the past, its lessons for markup technologies, the management of standards, and the handling of corporate politics still ring true. It also showcases how common forces drove the emergence of practices that we now see in the Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA).
Information 4.0 for Industry 4.0 (TCWorld 2016)Joe Gollner
An annotated version of a presentation delivered at TCWorld 2016 in Stuttgart, Germany. Explores the concept of Information 4.0 and Content 4.0. Builds connections to the Semantic Web, Internet of Things, Cognitive Computing, and Big Data.
A talk delivered at the Center for Information Development (CIDM) Best Practices conference held in Santa Fe, New Mexico, in September 2016. It is a treatment of the idea of Content 4.0 that focuses on the real implications that come with operating at the higher levels of content practice (3.0 and 4.0).
This session explores the ways in which Content 4.0 can be a useful way to understand the direction that content is going. It proceeds by looking at what content must be like in order to keep up with Industry 4.0. This session was undertaken at the invitation of Tom Aldous of The Content Era.
A bit of a retrospective. Back in the spring of 2005, I delivered this presentation at a Defense Software Symposium. The idea was that if we manage the knowledge behind a software system properly we can create, integrate, manage, and evolve that software far more effectively than we have in the past. This discussion proceeded with reference to very large and very complex software engineering and integration projects.
This talk was delivered at DITA Europe in Munich Germany. It explores the business and management considerations that apply to the deployment of DITA-enabled solutions that break out beyond the traditional technical documentation focus. Appropriately, the guiding theme for the presentation is drawn from Don Quixote.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

9. Core Concepts: Some Definitions
Concepts
Content
Information
Publishing
Information
Management
Content
Management
Intelligent Content
11. Core Concepts: Content & Information
Content
Is what we
plan, design, create, reuse & manage
so that we can deliver effective
information products
Content is potential information (an asset)
Information
Is the meaningful organization of data
communicated in a specific context
with the purpose of influencing others
Information is a transaction (an action)
In a sense, an information transaction contains selected content
12. Related Definitions
Publishing
The process of transforming content resources
into information products that can be effectively transacted
In order to be effective, information transactions must combine
a variety of data structures into a coherent whole governed by
the rhetorical patterns with which people communicate
Information Management
The application of management controls & measurements
to the information transactions underlying enterprise business
processes & for which organizations are accountable
13. Content Management
Content Management is the definition, application &
optimization of formalized processes to the business
of planning, acquiring, delivering & evolving content
Content Management seeks to keep everything in
sync: roles, users, content, processes, tools, models
Content Management is important because without
it complexity will overwhelm the organization
The more intelligent the content, the more important
Content Management becomes
14. Intelligent Content in Practice
A Practical Definition
Intelligent Content is designed, created, managed and deployed
using open standards [i.e., XML] so that the resulting information
products can be exactly tailored to the needs of the user and
can be efficiently maintained & leveraged by the content owner
Intelligent Content is
Portable
Reusable
Findable
Manageable
Processable Intelligent Content exposes its meaning in ways
Sustainable that both people & machines can use
15. Building Blocks of Intelligent Content
Content Components Technology Considerations
Text Modules Management Systems
Media Assets Authoring Environments
Data Sources Publishing Processes
Relationship Links Discovery Frameworks
Metadata Properties Social Media Venues
Concept Taxonomies Mobile Devices
Assembly Maps
Governing Models
Processing Rules
Formatting Instructions
Distribution Rights
16. Nuts & Bolts: Key Supporting Standards
XML – Extensible Markup Language
XSLT – Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations
XQuery – XML Query Language
RDF – Resource Description Framework
OWL – Web Ontology Language (built on RDF)
DITA – Darwin Information Typing Architecture
BPMN – Business Process Modeling Notation
XLIFF – XML Localization Interchange File Format
HTML5 – Next generation standard for web content
ePub 3.0 – Leading standard for eBooks (XHTML5)
18. Content Solution Technology Landscape
Based on the
Content Lifecycle CREATION ANALYSIS
& CONVERSION & DESIGN
Categorizes the
different tools &
techniques that PUBLISH
can be applied & DELIVER
Some areas are ASSET & WORK ENGAGE
more developed MANAGEMENT & ADAPT
than others
19. Analysis & Design ANALYSIS
& DESIGN
The tools & techniques for
Analyzing
Modeling
Exemplifying
Content resources & processes
Standards
Invaluable resources
although imperfect
The Achilles Heel of the CM Industry
Weak tools & techniques for analyzing & modeling content
Generally poor approaches to engaging stakeholders
20. Creation & Conversion CREATION
& CONVERSION
XML Editors
Dedicated tools (20+ years of history behind them)
Web based editors (coming along)
Alternatives (e.g., based on MS Word) try to hide the XML
Emergent alternatives hold great promise
Collaborative web-based authoring environments
Conversion
A variety of approaches exist to draw upon
• Manual: usually not entirely avoidable & often essential
• Automation: this is no magic
but it is largely under-utilized
21. Publish & Deliver
PUBLISH
Automated Publishing & DELIVER
Select / compile assets & render desired outputs
Dynamic Publishing
Automated publishing done according to request context
Staged Publishing
Generates outputs in forms that can be further tailored
Interchange Delivery
Can be standards-based or geared to loading target tools
Depends on high levels of efficient automation
The value of expertise & experience is prominent here
Good automation is precise, scalable & sustainable
22. Asset & Work Management
ASSET & WORK
The specific role of Content Management MANAGEMENT
Protect assets (don’t lose anything)
Facilitate work processes (don’t waste resources)
• Manual
• Automated
Maintain & enhance the quality of the information products
Provide tracking & reporting services
• Enabling management oversight & continuous improvement
Enable new products by
• Freeing up resources to perform higher value work
• Permitting the levels of complexity to be increased
• Elevating the intelligence of the content & associated products
23. Engage & Adapt: Social Media
ENGAGE
The delivery is not the end of the story, & ADAPT
… it is the beginning
Community engagement is a
tremendous source of value
Metrics Depending on the industry, this activity
Ranking can assume a prominent role where all
other activities are continuously
Feedback performed by the community members.
Commentary Community-based Docs:
Augmentation Government policies: Great
Consumers products: Good
Modification Medications: No so good
Substitution Airplanes: Really bad

Strategy Acquisition Delivery Evolution
Every project is different but certain patterns reoccur.
Investment in strategy formulation & prototyping pays long-term benefits.
Underfunding evolution, as distinct from maintenance, is the most common error.
27. The Stark Reality of Most CM Projects
CM Projects place an emphasis on the management activity as the initial priority
Typical Content Management Investment Curve
Cost
Aggregate Cost Productivity Gains & other benefits
begin to offset aggregate costs
between 18 and 24 months after
project initiation (in better cases)
Expenditures
Gain
Time
Offset
Productivity Hit
Typical CM project requires modernization
re-investment between 48 and 60 months
Productivity after project initiation – meaning the overall
investment is never offset
28. The Trouble with Content Management
Content Management can be expensive
Licensing costs are often high
Customization & implementation costs are substantially greater (× 5)
Impact on team members & infrastructure can be substantial
Content Management provides general benefits
Largely focused on “contingent benefits”
• Risk reduction
• Improved information discovery & reuse Hold Still for a Moment
These benefits difficult to translate into recoverable savings
Management understandably becomes interested
• And not in a good way
29. The Promise of Content Management
Intelligent Content changes the economics of Content Management – in a good way!
Target Content Management Investment Curve
Cost
A focus on the Content Lifecycle & on Content
Delivery will reduce expenditures & lower the
productivity hit while accelerating gains.
Aggregate Cost This can offset aggregate costs
in a much shorter period
Expenditures
Gain
Time
Productivity Hit Offset
Flexible architecture supports
Productivity continuous evolution instead of cyclic
re-investment in modernization – with each
evolutionary step being self-funded

Content Management must Content Management must be
transcend any one CMS if it’s to be placed into its proper context within
considered Content Management an effective Content Solution
Don’t commit to a CMS until
you fully understand
your content and what
you need to do with it
You can only understand
your content by working with it
Tailor your investments in
Content Management to what
helps you to be efficient
It’s about the content…
Be useful, or you’re
and the benefits you
