Abstract

Conceptual authoring support enables authors to model the content of their documents, giving both constructive and analytical aid. One key aspect of constructive aid are schemata as defined in the context of conceptual graphs. These are proven structures the author may instantiate in the document. Schemata may also be defined by an author to capture local experience. To support reuse by an author, a schema also includes documentation of the whole and the parts.

We present weighted schemata, in which the elements are assigned weights (optional, important, and crucial) indicating their importance. Schemata may be instantiated in variants depending on the usage context. There is also functionality for exporting parts of the document graph to a schema description, whose format allows further editing.
