[METOKIS] - Methodology and Tools Infrastructure for the Creation of Knowledge Units
Architecture and tools for producing, exchanging, and trading knowledge units
METOKIS will create an architecture and tools for producing, exchanging, and trading knowledge units. Such units are conceived as self-describing knowledge and content structures that are tailored to support defined tasks within the overall workflow of knowledge workers.
For the knowledge units, METOKIS will develop a prototypic carrier architecture which builds on open standards as well as models of units that are created from multimedia assets and contain state-of-the art semantic annotation.
Based on task analyses in three knowledge workers' scenarios, METOKIS will also build real-world applications - each with differing knowledge content requirements. The three scenarios include definition and evaluation of treatment protocols for clinical trials; an educational on-line learning system for migrants; and a decision support system for senior executives
