Wikis provide a new way of collaboration and knowledge sharing. Wikis are software that allows users to work collectively on a web-based knowledge base. Wikis are characterised by a sense of anarchism, collaboration, connectivity, organic development and self-healing, and they rely on trust.

This paper presents a proposal for a system capable of retrieval information from the processes generated by the system Yacy. The information retrieved will be used in the generation of a knowledge base. This knowledge base may be used in the generation of semantic web applications.

1  Abstract—This paper will discuss the challenges in tooling around the management and utilization of knowledge space structures, via standardized APIs for external Adaptive Learning Systems (ALS) to consume. It then describes how these challenges are addressed in a graph based knowledge management framework application designed for external ALSs.

Kind theory is a logic for describing and reasoning about structured knowledge in communities. It provides a formal framework for describing, finding, customizing, composing, and reasoning about structured domains, such as those of software and mathematics. A wiki web-based asset repository called the “Jiki” has been created that provides a simple interface to interacting with reusable artifact...
