'SemanticWiki for SharePoint 2010' is the first product out of a series of semantic applications that has been developed on the basis of our products 'SemanticCore for SharePoint' and 'SemanticMiner for SharePoint'.
All of these applications offer a capable Backend-Architecture and a user-friendly interface. Combined with a powerful Content Management Platform like Microsoft, these applications provide an ideal basis for developing different knowledge management solutions.
Do you use Wikipedia?
Based on the success of Wikipedia, many companies are looking for a way to concentrate Corporate Knowledge in form of a Wiki. Every employee should be able to share his knowledge, though the Wiki also focuses on scalability, usability, Corporate Design and Rights Management. The Wiki must adapt to the needs of the company.
Wikipedia plus semantics
Imagine creating a new Wiki page in your Corporate Wiki, but instead of creating an ordinary page, you create a page of a particular Object-Type (Person, Employee, Organization, Project, Product, etc.) and thereby define the structure, look and content of the new page. The site gets a meaning of its own, a semantics.
Objects and their relations
Your Wiki pages not only explain terms, but now represent Objects of real concerns of your company. These Objects are related to each other variously shaped and can be easily modeled and managed.
Rules for implicit knowledge
There are rules and standards in all companies which describe Corporate Knowledge essentially in more detail. Through the definition and application of these rules, you are in the position to generate implicit knowledge from explicit knowledge (from your Wiki-Pages). Only through the integration of rules your corporate wiki becomes a sustainable knowledge management solution.
