Semantic Collaboration for Enterprise Knowledge Management, E-Learning and E-Tourism

This project prepares and starts the commercial exploitation of the semantic collaboration software OntoWiki in the three different target markets Enterprise Knowledge Management, semantically enhanced content management for E-Learning and E-Tourism. OntoWiki is a comprehensive semantic collaboration platform. OntoWiki is open-source software and a Web application, which can be installed at any Web space and accessed by an ordinary Web browser. Onto­Wiki facilitates the visual presentation of a knowledge base as an information map, with different views on instance data. It enables intuitive authoring of semantic content, with an inline editing mode for editing semantic content, similar to WYSIWIG for text documents. OntoWiki is developed at Universität Leipzig and has a large and active user base. Within the course of the project OntoWiki will be further developed and adopted to the needs of the SME participants for exploitation of OntoWiki in the prospective target markets.
