Abstract
Features in currently available systems are often restricted to passive ’consumption’ of articles stored in the corresponding digital journal. This paper classifies features into two categories (overall system structure, and content based features) and gives an outlook of planned implementations in the Journal of Universal Computer Science (J.UCS). It also shows that using the powerful Hyperwave Information Server (HIS) makes it quite easy to implement features and make knowledge management features (such as ’find an expert on a topic’) available to users of a digital journal.
