TeiCoPhiLib: A Library of Components for the Domain of Collaborative Philology

The aim of this contribution is to illustrate a work in progress related to a library of software components devoted to editing, visualizing and processing TEI annotated documents in the domain of philological studies, in particular in the subdomain of collaborative philology. After a short introduction and a general overview, the second section is devoted to the technologies related to XML mark-up languages and how to process marked documents. The third section illustrates the method applied to design and implement the TeiCoPhiLib. General benefits of the overall architecture are discussed and the used design patterns are described. The fourth section is devoted to case studies in which some components of the ongoing TeiCoPhiLib have been used. The fifth section exposes the conclusions.
