DYONIPOS: Proactive support of knowledge workers

Efficient and effective knowledge management plays an increasingly important role in knowledge intensive organizations. The research project DYONIPOS focuses on detecting the knowledge needs of knowledge workers and automatically providing this required knowledge just in time. The prototype DYONIPOS generates new knowledge out of artefacts, while avoiding additional work and violations of the knowledge worker’s privacy. The knowledge is made available through semantic linkage of the relevant information from existing repositories. In addition DYONIPOS creates an individual and an organizational knowledge data base to achieve the knowledge. This article is structured as follows: section 1 addresses the relation between the applied approach and the challenge in e-Government and summarizes the aims of the research project DYONIPOS. In section 2 the semantic and knowledge discovery technologies used are presented. The paper concludes with the presentation of the use-case project, showing the results of the first and the second test and screenshots of the updated DYONIPOS application.
