Where is Your Knowledge? – Semantic Wikis and Beyond



Abstract. The work in modern companies is to a large extent driven by the need to share and exchange knowledge – to find the right information at the right time. But as companies grow and information technologies make ever more information available, it becomes increasingly difficult and time consuming to find relevant knowledge among heaps of data. The intranets of large companies thus face similar problems as the World Wide Web, and solutions developed for web contexts find their way into industrial knowledge management. This talk presents two such solutions – Wikis and the Semantic Web – in combination, and explains why culture is just as important as IT when it comes to improving the ways in which we manage our knowledge.

Invited talk given to a general audience, focus on enterprise and life-science applications of Semantic Web technologies.
