Briefings

The briefings included here provide an overview and introduction to Compendium. Since Compendium represents a large body of work and experience, the papers cover several dimensions: Compendium as a methodology, a technology, a community of people and expertise, and a research topic.
A growing number of people from a wide range of backgrounds and organizations regard Compendium as a highly promising approach to solving a number of difficult business, organizational, and technical problems. With continued development, support, community, and energy, Compendium can continue to generate an increasing amount of value in the years to come.
