Design, Implementation and Verification of Rule-Based Systems and Business Rules
The GEIST team has deep theoretical and practical experience in Rule-Based Systems. The HeKatE project (2007-9) delivered conceptual design methods and practical tools. These tools are being actively used and extended to support the design of Business Rules and Processes.
Members of the team co-organize the DERIS and RuleApps workshops related to the area.
Semantic Knowledge Engineering with Semantic Wikis
The GEIST team has practical experience in building and applying semantic wikis in knowledge engineering. Recently a prototype system called PlWiki has been developed and presented at the ICCCI conference. Members of the team work with partners from the University of Wuerzburg in Germany, the developers of the KnowWE system, on the implementation of the next generation of semantic wikis.
Members of the team co-organize the KESE workshop related to the area.
