REFERENCES 697Version control The systematic maintenance and orga-
nization of all the versions of a set of files made over
time by allowing people to consult previous revisions
of individual files to compare and view the changes
made between them, thereby keeping an accurate and
retrievable log of a file’s history and, more importantly,
enabling people (even if in geographically disparate
locations) to work together on a development project
over the Internet or private network by merging their
changes into the same source repository (Helixcom-
munity.org, 2002).
Web content life cycle The processes of content cre-
ation, representation and organization, transforma-
tion, and delivery.
Web content management (WCM) A process by which
WCM solutions are used to create, store, publish,
update, and repurpose content to be communicated
through an organization’s Web site by way of templates,
workflow tracking features, publishing systems, and
storage of content objects in database or file index-
ing systems. Web content may appear in the form of
an HTML, PDF, or Word document, PowerPoint slide
decks, Flash, XML, animation, interactive/still image,
audio/video, plain text, database, etc.
Web content representation and organization Tw o
aspects of the content management process: the mod-
eling of data or document components and their prop-
erties, which will be used to create templates and
schemas for content creation; and the modeling of the
domain subject in the form of classification or taxon-
omy, which will be used to categorize data or document
components for content retrieval and browsing.
WebDAV (Web-based distributed authoring and ver-
sioning) A set of extensions to the HTTP protocol
that allows users to collaboratively edit and manage
files on remote Web servers (Internet Society, 1999).
Workflow A combination of people, projects, and busi-
ness environment in which Web content tasks are
carried out from the initial content producers to de-
signers, editors, and reviewers along the content pro-
duction line until such tasks are completed.
XML (extensible markup language) A class of data ob-
jects called XML documents; also partially describes
the behavior of computer programs that process them
(W3C, 2000).
XML stylesheet language transformations (XSLT) A
language that provides the mechanism to transform
and manipulate XML data (W3C, 1999c).CROSS REFERENCES
