In particular, mathematicians, physicists and other natural scientists intensify, accelerate and extend their communication by the use of the Internet and its tools, from electronic mail up to the World Wide Web. In doing so, they also exchange scientific results of a new kind and quality yet unknown to traditional information providers such as publishers, libraries, and database suppliers (e.g. in the form of current research software, scientific data collections, observations and experimental data, visualizations, animations etc.). They, on the other hand, perceive the new ways, which are passing their own field of activity, as breakdowns of traditional publishing, as it was termed by the Association of Computing Machinery. In addition, scientific libraries find themselves caught in a structural crisis -- not only because of budget restraints. The {\it Deutsche Mathematiker-Vereinigung} (DMV), however, sees the new electronic means as an opportunity to master a crisis of this kind rather than a threat. By discussing concrete models, which may be - in a certain technical sense -- realizable already today, the article gives an introduction into the subject of a {\it Distributed Information- and Communication System for Mathematics}, a project prepared and planned by the DMV for the years 1996 to 1998. In the context of possible realization variants it also deals with questions of costs, resulting load of network connections, and -- showing the beginnings -- the (absolutely essential) solution of problems related to quality, authenticity, archival and intellectual property rights, which arise with the employment of electronic means. Obviously (even if not discussed explicitly) also computing centers, whose tasks and position are also affected by the electronic revolution, have the chance to find a new and forward-looking role in this field - in particular by new forms of cooperation with scientific libraries.}, language = {en} } @misc{GroetschelDalitz, author = {Gr{\"o}tschel, Martin and Dalitz, Wolfgang}, title = {Math-Net Abschlussbericht}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-4120}, number = {SC-99-24}, abstract = {Das Math-Net ist ein verteiltes Informationssystem f"ur die Mathematik.

With the aid of active (structured retrieval mechanisms) and passive (profile services) components, electronic mathematical information in Germany will be made available to the scientist at his workplace. The emphasis is put on information about publications, software and data collections, teaching and research activities, but also on organizational and bibliographical information. Decentral organization structures, distributed search systems as well as the use of meta-information (metadata) in accordance with the Dublin Core (hopefully) guarantee a longterm, high-quality repository of data. The well-known mathematical software and data collection netlib\/ will be used as an example to illustrate how such a collection can be adapted to Math-Net. An integration of netlib into HyperWave offers additional perspectives and functionalities.}, language = {en} }
