- Project Website: www.wissenspflege.de
Wissenspflege is an innovative web-based application implemented by students of University of Siegen at the Institute of Knowledge Based Systems and Knowledge Management (KBS & KM).
Since summer 2013, the Wissenspflege platform has been designed as a modular knowledge-based system by involvement of the research assistants of the KBS & KM. KBS & KM aims at transferring the lessons learned and good practices from the European and industrial projects to the university students. In this way KBS & KM defines real, practical and new-fashioned challenges as a small scaled project for the students in the scopes of the bachelor/master thesis or project group.
