The term Semantic Authoring and Publishing describes the whole process for dynamic development and publication of semantically enriched content. This includes research and development, writing, several approval processes, publication and reuse of content. In this context, company experts frequently work together across multiple locations and with multiple external partners. They need information hidden in different company-internal and external data silos and spread throughout the Web, a unified view of these data and automated authoring and publishing processes.

The solution enables semantic access and intelligent search across the whole dataset. It integrates and correlates information from enterprise internal data sources with public information available on the Web in a central place. The solution is extremely flexible and scalable and provides comprehensive and customizable features for navigation, visualization, analysis and reporting.
