PDF/Word are best for desktop and print.

.. but they do not play well with the Web.

User Experience is inadequate for Universal Access to research knowledge.

SELECT ?document ?hypothesis ?variable
FROM <http://example.org/paper.pdf>
WHERE {
  ?document
    schema:about dbr:Semantic_similarity ;
    :hypothesis ?hypothesis .
  ?hypothesis :variable ?variable .
}

Fix the UX and maximize value from research output:

Use the Web stack for maximum openness, accessibility and flexibility.

1. URI Ownership
2. Linked Data
3. Knowledge Acquisition
4. User Experience
5. Announce
6. Open Feedback
7. Motivate

Publish your research at a Web space that you control.

Architecture of the World Wide Web, Volume One: URI Ownership

But... you already know what I'm going to tell you — The Matrix, Oracle

Any resource of significance should be given a URI — Axiom 0a: Universality 2, Tim Berners-Lee, “Web Developer”

e.g., hypotheses, workflows, evaluations, results, provenance, citations

Human + Machine:

• +1 Discoverability
• +1 Comparability
• +1 Reproducibility
• +1 Reusability
• \o/ Web science

In the spirit of science!

• Create presentation layers
• Design interactive UIs

+1 Research Communication and Education

e.g: dokieli/dokieli HTML+RDFa + CSS (screen, print [LNCS,ACM]) + JavaScript + SVG + WebID+ACL

For human and machine discovery.

+1 Creating Awareness

For both positive and negative research results.

Let everyone participate:

• Digital citizens
• Open (academic) reviews/reviewers
• Machine-generated relations to other research objects

+1 Collective Knowledge

Take the power back and control yourself !
