The error correction process in the semantic network as a nonlinear dynamic system

This article continues the series of works devoted to modeling the errors of independent users in the formation of a semantic network which is the basis for the distributed technology to support specific historical investigations. This article is devoted to the description and substantiation of the approach to modeling of organizational measures of search and correction of errors of subnetworks of the semantic network of technology copies. The specificity of this type of errors was described and the necessity of their study was substantiated. The proposed approach is to analyze the processes of the number of semantic network errors changing and the efforts of users countering its increase as a nonlinear dynamic system. As a part of these efforts, a separate subclass — volunteerism characterized by voluntary and targeted actions of users to correct the errors — was highlighted and described. Using this approach, the effectiveness of volunteers' actions was quantified and on the basis of this estimate, the recommendations for the community of technology users were formulated.
