Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 4092))

Abstract

In 2001, NKIMath, as the mathematics knowledge component of National Knowledge Infrastructure, was initiated to elaborate in China. In order to help knowledge engineers acquire and manage the mathematical knowledge especially the conceptual knowledge, a knowledge management environment, NKIMathE has been designed and developed. NKIMathE integrates three main components: (1) a platform for knowledge acquisition, syntax checking and organization for mathematical concepts; (2) a module for multi-lingual knowledge translation and transform for mathematical concepts; and (3) a Web-based and a mobile knowledge Q-A platforms for mathematical concepts.
