Problematics :

The hypothesis is that electronic documents editing and publishing processes modify text and author concepts and realities.

Paper-based documents, electronic or multimedia documents considered as closed items are deeply transformed by electronic flows when :

  Writing process is embedded with editing process ;
  The output is the framework of the writing process ;
  The text no longer belongs to a single author but is about to be added comments and modifications from others authors.

The hypothesis is that online writing and reading tools contribute to switch from paper-based authorship to unpredictable collective knowledge building.

A typology of these tools will be given, focusing on their impact on authorship.
