Abstract
An increasing number of sites including scientific electronic journals, digital libraries and collaboratories have been dedicated to scientific knowledge sharing and exchange in the recent years. Despite the apparent progress, in which traditional journals are migrating to Web and new forms of communication emerge, a closer look at these sites indicates that the scientific publishing model remains essentially unchanged. In this context was born the Configurable Electronic Journal (CEJ) project, a solution for generating configurable and extensible electronic journals. One of the main goals of this work is to apply open source technologies, including W3C Semantic Web technologies, in the design of an innovative environment for the definition of publication processes. CEJ environment is flexible to accommodate different styles of publications, suitable to be used in different processes and disciplines.
