Multilingual Knowledge Management

  • Chapter
Artificial Intelligence An International Perspective

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 5640))

Abstract

Although there has been substantial research in knowledge management, there has been limited work in the area of multilingual knowledge management. The purpose of this chapter is to review and summarize some of the existing and supporting literature surrounding the emerging field of multilingual knowledge management. It does that by reviewing recent applications from multiple fields and the presentation of multilingual information. The chapter uses a theory about knowledge management and also examines supporting literature in translation, collaboration, ontologies and search.
