Abstract

In this paper KnowWeb - European Commission funded research project is briefly introduced. The project aims at the development of tools as well as methodology to support knowledge management especially in small and medium sized enterprises (SME) We build our approach on top of conceptual modelling of company specific problem domain. Such a conceptual domain model may serve as a shared vocabulary to express context of various documents published within the company. Also it may be used for a sophisticated retrieval of documents as a reference.
