Completed Projects

Below is a list of completed research projects (the list of currently running projects is separate).

	OntoMap is a knowledge representation formalism, a reasoner, and a web portal for upper-level ontologies and lexical semantics. The KR language is more complex than RDF(S) and is pretty similar to OWL Lite. The portal provides access to the most popular upper-level and lexical resources, together with hand-crafted mappings between them. It includes a number of alternative viewers: HTML, DHTML, stand-alone GUI application. Read more.
SWWS Toolset and Studio	SWWS Toolset is part of the software infrastructure of the SWWS project (see below). It is implemented in Java so it can be deployed successfully on any Java enabled system. It consists of two components: SWWS Studio is a graphical designer tool (IDE) for modeling semantic web service descriptions. It is one of the few WSMO Standard-compliant web service IDEs. SWWS Repository is a server-side repository, serving as a centralized registry where semantic web service descriptions are stored.
EC Funded Projects Ontotext is involved in a number of European Commission funded projects. The list of those already completed within Framework program 5th and 6th (FP5, FP6) follows. You may also read about currently running EC projects
	Content-driven Knowledge-Management through Evolving Ontologies. The On-To-Knowledge project develops methods and tools and employ the full power of the ontological approach to facilitate knowledge management. The On-To-Knowledge tools will help knowledge workers who are not IT specialists to access company-wide information repositories in an efficient, natural and intuitive way. Ontotext's role in the project is to develop an Ontology Middleware Module (OMM) and DAML+OIL reasoner (named BOR). Read more.
VISION	Next Generation Knowledge Management. The VISION project will provide a strategic roadmap towards next-generation organizational knowledge management. Ontotext is chairing the Natural Language Processing special interest group within the project.
	Ontology-based information exchange for knowledge management and electronic commerce. Ontotext is formally part of SIG5 - Language Technology in Ontology Development and Use. It also cooperates with: SIG1 - Content and Standards; SIG2 - Ontology Language Standards; SIG3 - Enterprise-Standard Ontology Environments.
	Semantic Web enabled Web Services. The main objectives of SWWS are to (i) Provide a comprehensive Web Service description framework; (ii) Define a Web Service discovery framework; (iii) Provide a scalable Web Service mediation platform. Ontotext is responsible for the software infrastructure within the project.
	Data, Information, and Process Integration with Semantic Web Services. DIP develops further and at a bigger scale the semantic web services framework introduced with SWWS. Read more
	Semantic Knowledge Technologies. Targeting synergy of Ontology and Metadata Technology, Knowledge Discovery and Human Language Technology. The vision of SEKT is to develop and exploit the knowledge technologies which underlie Next Generation Knowledge Management. We envision knowledge workplaces where the boundaries between document management, content management, and knowledge management are broken down, and where knowledge management is an effortless part of day to day activities. Appropriate knowledge is automatically delivered to the right people at the right time at the right granularity via a range of user devices. Read more
INFRAWEBS	Intelligent Framework for Networked Businesses and Governments Using Semantic Web Services (SWS) and Multi-Agent-Systems. The main INFRAWEBS project focus and objective is the development of an application-oriented software toolset for creating, maintaining and executing WSMO-based Semantic Web Services (SWS) within their whole life cycle.
	Preservation towards storage and access. Standardized Practices for Audiovisual Contents in Europe. The project will start these preservation factories by preparing the business plan, contacting potential investors and working with commercial partners to set up the actual services. These services will exploit the technological and industrial results of the project. A strong economic factor supporting these preservation factories is a commitment by the major PrestoSpace consortium members to use these services. Read more
MediaCampaign	Discovering, inter-relating and navigating cross-media campaign knowledge. MediaCampaign's scope consists of discovering, inter-relating and navigating cross-media campaign knowledge and extensively automating the detection and tracking of media campaigns on television, Internet and in the press. Read more
RASCALLI	Responsive Artificial Situated Cognitive Agents Living and Learning on the Internet. The overall goal of the RASCALLI project is to develop an artificial cognitive system that allows human and computer skills to be combined in such a way that both abilities can be optimally employed for the benefit of the human user.
	Providing Integrated Public Services to Citizens at the National and Pan-European level with the use of Emerging Semantic Web Technologies. The project aims at building the infrastructure (software, models, services, etc) necessary for enabling the offering of semantic web services by public administration (PA). Through this cutting edge infrastructure, SemanticGov will address longstanding challenges faced by public administrations such as achieving interoperability amongst PA agencies both within a country as well as amongst countries, easing the discovery of PA services by its customers, facilitating the execution of complex services often involving multiple PA agencies in interworkflows.

	IST World is an IST research information portal co-developed by Ontotext for the EU. Read more about this important source of research information
	SUPER (Semantics Utilized for Process management within and between EnteRprises) is an FP7 Integrated Project. Its major objective is to raise Business Process Management (BPM) to the business level, where it belongs, from the IT level, where it mostly resides now.

Recently completed projects:

LarKC - The Large Knowledge Collider: a platform for large scale integrated reasoning and Web-search - the platform will be achieved by enriching the current logic-based Semantic Web reasoning methods, employing cognitively inspired approaches and techniques.
SOA4ALL - Service Oriented Architectures for All - combines a service delivery platform based on Web 2.0, Semantics and Context Management to enable a Web of billions of services
