Information is sometimes said to be our most valuable asset, but information without context, meaning, or validation is useless. Knowledge is information that we can use, but to apply it we need to organise it and provide it in the right place at the right time. The management and delivery of information and knowledge are key areas where XML can contribute significant benefits because it is robust, provable, and reprocessable, and because software to take advantage of these features is already available.

This seminar focuses on how knowledge can be represented, managed and delivered using XML technology. Knowledge and information management itself are business practices, planned processes for generating business value from intellectual assets. In order for XML to assist these processes, many components need to be in place, including frameworks for representing the information as knowledge; tools for handling management and delivery; methods for identifying and locating information and deciding if it can be turned into knowledge or not; and controls for managing the scalability.
