Semantic MediaWiki+ (SMW+) is an open-source semantic wiki, targeted for use in commercial and corporate environments, allowing you to better manage and retrieve wiki contents, compared to conventional enterprise wikis. SMW+ provides an intuitive means for end-users to collaboratively create, organise and retrieve knowledge in your wiki. In this case knowledge is your semantically enriched wiki contents, which can be processed and interpreted by the wiki system and other ontology infrastructures. As a consequence, users are not restricted to a simple key word search for knowledge retrieval, but they are able to effectively query and evaluate the wiki’s knowledge base, giving them precisely the information they need. The contained semantics make the wiki context-aware: Thus, a query e.g. for wiki pages tagged with “event”, also yields pages only tagged with “conference”, because the wiki understands that every conference is an event.
