About CS Wiki
What is CS Wiki?
- "CS Wiki" is an organically home-grown encyclopedia on Computer Science knowledge - created and maintained collectively by CityU's CS Dept community (staffs+students). This project was inspired by other similar knowledge bases, such as the Wikipedia (the Free Encyclopedia).
What is Wiki?
- Wiki (invented by Ward Cunningham) is a software technology that facilitates collaborative work over the Internet. Anyone with a valid login can instantly add or modify Web content using simple Wiki notations. (Login and double-click to try.)
Who can use CS Wiki?
- Obviously, the content of the CityU CS Wiki is open to everyone on the Web. However, at the current initial state of the knowledge base, only people with a valid CS Lab login can edit the contents. We welcome and encourage everyone in this community to contribute to the CS Wiki.
