Abstract
Business data of a company, latest research results of an university or learning content in education – these are just some of many possible examples to illustrate that knowledge is the key factor in modern society. However, the information flood and the growing complexity of data made it more difficult to manage relevant data and distinguish between irrelevant information. Furthermore, there is now a challenge not only store data in an information system but also to remove them if desired. In this article WasabiBeans, a service-oriented framework for distributed collaborative knowledge work, is presented. WasabiBeans provides virtual knowledge spaces that are self-administrated by the users. This article outlines the framework’s powerful authentication and authorization infrastructure as well as a flexible user-driven repository integration – WasabiPipes – to build up complex knowledge networks.
