DESCRIPTION

Today’s work is characterized by a high degree of innovation and thus
demands a thorough overview of relevant knowledge in the world and in
organizations. semantic work environments support the work of the user by
collecting knowledge about needs and providing processed and improved
knowledge to be integrated into work.

Emerging Technologies for Semantic Work Environments: Techniques, Methods,
and Applications describes an overview of the emerging field of semantic
work environments by combining various research studies and underlining the
similarities between different processes, issues and approaches in order to
provide the reader with techniques, methods, and applications of the study.
