ABSTRACT
In this paper we describe two systems designed to connect
users to distributed, continuously changing experts and their
knowledge. Using information retrieval, information extraction,
and collaborative filtering techniques, these systems are able to
enhance corporate knowledge management by overcoming
traditional problems of knowledge acquisition and maintenance
and associated (human and financial) costs. We describe the
purpose of these two systems, how they work, and current
deployment in a global corporate environment to enable end
users to directly discover experts and their knowledge.
