Wooki: A P2P Wiki-Based Collaborative Writing Tool

چکیده
Wiki systems are becoming an important part of the information system of many organisations and communities. This introduce the issue of the data availability in case of failure, heavy load or off-line access. We propose to replicate wiki pages across a P2P network of Wiki engines. We address the problem of consistency of replicated wiki pages in the context of a P2P Wiki system. In this paper, we present the architecture and the underlying algorithms of the wooki system. Compared to traditional Wikis, Wooki is P2P Wiki which scales, delivers better performances and allows off-line access. Key-words: P2P Wiki, Collaborative Writing, off-line access, WOOT Wooki: un éditeur collaboratif Pair à Pair basé sur un wiki Résumé : Les wikis deviennent une composante importante des systèmes d’information de nombreuses organisations. Ceci soulève le problème de la disponibilité des données en cas de panne, de surcharge ou d’accès hors-ligne. Nous proposons de répliquer les pages wiki sur un réseau pair à pair. Nous nous intéressons au problème de cohérence des pages wiki répliquées dans le contexte d’un système de wiki Pair à Pair. Dans ce papier, nous présentons l’architecture et les algorithmes du système wooki. Comparé aux wikis traditionnels, Wooki est un wiki Pair à Pair qui permet le passage à l’échelle, offre de meilleures performances et autorise le travail hors-ligne.
