Abstract

The CELESC R&D Management Systems is a CBR system for information management whose retrieval process is based on knowledge representation by ontologies. The system was built to support R&D project management, to reduce losses on intellectual property over ideas generated inside the company. The company knowledge base has projects developed since 2001. Developed for web environments, the system allows a wide knowledge diffusion of its content and results.
