Agile Knowledge Engineering and Semantic Web (AKSW)
The Research Group Agile Knowledge Engineering and Semantic Web (AKSW) is hosted by the Chair of Business Information Systems (BIS) of the Institute of Computer Science (IfI) / University of Leipzig as well as the Institute for Applied Informatics (InfAI).
Goals
- Development of methods, tools and applications for adaptive Knowledge Engineering in the context of the Semantic Web
- Research of underlying Semantic Web technologies and development of fundamental Semantic Web tools and applications
- Maturation of strategies for fruitfully combining the Social Web paradigms with semantic knowledge representation techniques
AKSW is committed to the free software, open source, open access and open knowledge movements.
